    The grounds of this property are so well kept. It is just gorgeous here. Breakfast was delicious, as was supper. We borrowed the bikes and visited a few towns via the bike path. The hiking was great right from the property. We were so happy we had the whole weekend here!

    Amazing lake and mountain views in quaint, resort-like surroundings.

    Bear in mind that because this hotel is situated in the midst of rugged natural beauty, accessibility can be an issue. I would recommend having a car. There is paid parking at the hotel. Note that the driving to and at the hotel requires a moderately skilled driver, as there are cramped quarters for turning on-site, and steep hills with narrow roads and quickly changing speed limits to/from town. Access by public transit is doable, but complicated for foreigners. The ferry is convenient and stops right at the hotel, however, using it for transit as opposed for recreation will involve careful planning. Note that the ferry is operated by Wolfgangsee Schifffahrt (yes, three "f") and is not year-round. Consult them for timetables and fares (not cheap). You can do just fine eating at the hotel restaurant for every meal, but if you want to get to St. Gilgen or other towns around the lake, a car is essential. Also, for nightlife, the ferry is not an option. Depending what room you purchase, there may not be a refrigerator, but reception will bring one if you ask. In this case, it is a quite small portable refrigerator with less than 1 cubic foot of space in my estimation. Note also that the room key is an actual metal key on a heavy fob, which is quaint, but not so great for pocket-carry.

    This hotel is quaint and magical, with splendid views of the Wolfgangsee and surrounding mountains along the lakeside path, which you can walk almost the entire distance to St. Gilgen if you like. If you prefer, the ferry stops right next to the hotel. Staff was exceptional and offered ferry tickets at reception. I won't ruin the surprise, but check-out was a nice experience as well. I did not engage in much hiking, but guests receive literature at check-in about the myriad trails of different lengths and levels of challenge, accessible from right at the hotel. I have not been to Hallstatt, but the Wolfgangsee area seems like an excellent alternative without quite as many tourists (but still a lot). Don't forget to take the sielbahn to the Zwölferhorn for stunning 360-degree views of the surrounding mountains, including Zugspitze. St. Gilgen in general is a nice, quaint town with upscale shopping as well as touristy kitch. This stay was well worth the price in my opinion, as it was an unforgettable experience filled with glorious natural beauty and wonderful, luxurious Austrian hospitality.

    There was limited staff while we were there so that there was only someone at reception for a few hours in the morning necessitating that we use a key to even enter the hotel.

    The property is on an idyllic setting along the lake. Beautiful property with stunning views. The daily breakfast was fabulous.

    A very minor point: the restaurant can be a little quiet on weekday evenings. Consider playing some background music to enhance the atmosphere.

    Excellent location on the lake-front! Secluded and peaceful. Close to several hiking routes. Free pedalo and row boats are available for guests, which we loved! The staff at reception are exceptionally friendly and always willing to help! Finally, the traditional Austrian cuisine served at the restaurant is varied and delicious.

    Pricey hotel and restaurant. The restaurant wanted to charge me for tap water when I asked them if I could fill up my plastic bottle for the bike ride, but the front desk lady helped agreed to help me out. Who charges for tap water??? Bicycles, especially mountain bikes they provide you are old and need servicing. The 2 we had squeaked the entire time and it was really annoying riding them all day with all that noise. For the price we paid to stay at this place, overall I have to say it was a miss.

    Great location right in front of the lake with beautiful views. Clean rooms, good breakfast.
