A truly beautiful hotel located on top of the Zell am See mountain, accessible only by cable car. The journey up is an experience in itself, and once you reach the top, the views are absolutely breathtaking—360° of mountains all around. Breakfast was very good, the staff were amazing, and even in August the weather was perfect. I’d love to return in winter to experience it in a completely different atmosphere.

This was one of my favorite places to stay during our trip. Could not have been happier with location, comfort, staff, and accommodations. We had an easy paperless check-in and friendly checkout. The breakfast was especially delicious, and the cook made us feel like family. So many bonus surprises during our stay such as the private beach, room upgrade, quiet atmosphere, and delicious food. The host was also amazing and went out of her way to be sure we were pleased. Thank you Schloss Prielau! We will be back and have already recommended this castle to our friends.

We had an issue with our motorbike and needed help communicating in German with the key service, as we couldn’t unlock the disc lock. The staff was extremely helpful and showed great determination in assisting us. They didn’t give up even after several attempts and made sure we were taken care of. I would especially like to give credit to the girls at the reception, whose kindness and persistence made a stressful situation much easier. Because of this experience, we will definitely be coming back in the future.

FAQs about hotels in Zell am See

Mountain Paradise in Salzburg Province

A paradise in the Austrian state of Salzburg, Zell am See is located along the shores of the Zell Lake and surrounded by mountains like the 2000-metre high Schmittenhöhe. It is an important ski centre in the winter and a hiking and mountain-biking paradise during summer.

The area has been occupied since Roman times, but the village was founded around the year 740 by the order of Bishop Johannes I of Salzburg. The picturesque Old Town includes typical Alpine style buildings, as well as the oldest building of the region, St. Hippolyte's Church. The Austrian area of Zell am See offers a wide range of hotels, B&B’s, apartments, and guest houses.

The leisure centre has a covered pool, a sauna and steam bath, and special facilities for kids. Zell am See is a gateway to the Hohe Tauern National Park, the biggest of the Alps and Austria’s oldest.

The nearby town of Kaprun is home to the 12th-century Kaprun Castle and the Kitzsteinhorn glacier. Salzburg Airport is 100 km away, while Sixt Innsbruck Airport is 150 km away. Whether  you’re searching for hotels in Zell am See with ski facilities, or a cosy ‘gasthaus’ with a garage for your bike, check out the variety available on Booking.com!

    You can see a lot of facilities with the summer card.

    You can see a lot of facilities with the summer card. A lot to do for families ( hiking, cycling, rafting, bathing, swimming, sightseeing,visiting museums ). The food and drinks in restaurants are expensive, so it’s better to have food included in the hotel price or buy it in the store.

    It's the right midpoint between the regions of Leogang and Saalbach-Hinterglemm, if you are into mountain biking, and the Grosser Donnerkogel, if you are into via ferratas. Being in Zell am See gave us the possibility to do multiple things withing a 1h driving radius.

    Zell am See is rightly popular because it is uperbly located on the most beautiful lake, with mountain scenery that changes with the light throughout the day. it is also makes an excellent centre for touring. special mention must be made of the Kaprun Glacier and the Kaprun Reservoir. Simply unmissable.

    Views of the lake with the best mountain backgrounds are from the other end of the lake - the most northerly. We didn't do it, but it looks like a good place to hire bikes or electric bikes to see more of the lakeside.

    Zell am See is a beautiful place and we have stayed there many times over 40 years. We were unaware that the week we chose this trip was a mid season break and nearly all facilities and services in the town were closed. It was like a ghost town, with limited amenities and very few visitors. WHY WERE WE NOT TOLD THIS BY THE HOTEL WHEN WE BOOKED!!!!!!

    Zell is just a 1.5 to 2 hour journey from Salzburg and the train station is conveniently located in the town centre. It's always worth asking at the train station for the ticket that allows you to travel anywhere by train and bus on a Saturday for only £8 per person. Stock up at the Spar at Salzburg station if you're arriving after supermarket closing hours, although the Spar near the Cityxpress stays open until 7pm most days. Due to the height of the mountains the skiing is excellent and when we weren't skiing we made good use of our ski lift pass to visit the Kitzsteinhorn and the walking trail at the top of the Schmittenhohe.

    We liked the welcome, the hosts are charming, schnapps on arrival is a winner, (maybe we were special:)))) the location, and the honesty bar. We like hotels where the locals choose to stay. This is a family run hotel and after staying in a 4 star hotel in Vienna and a 3 star in Salzburg in the same week, we vote the Pension Hubertus as our favourite base. For English travellers it’s the number 10 bus from Salzburg airport to Zell am see and a 1.5hr train ride, easy.
