- "The warm environment and greetings from all staff feel you like home, not a hotel. It is unlike other hotels who are purely commercial. For people who know the value of shattaf in travel, they will understand what I mean as it is very rare to find a hotel with shattaf upon travel in Europe." - "Rooms were lovely and clean. great breakfast which was made fresh every morning. Dinner was also included which wasn’t listed when we booked, but it was a nice surprise. Alex (bar manager) and Mara (chef) were really helpful and very welcoming. The zell am see-kaprun summer card is also included which is brilliant"

- "The location of the hotel is right in the center of the city. We were welcomed by the owner of the hotel, who explained all the necessary things and we also learned about the possibilities, which we had no idea about when we booked the hotel. Everything was taken care of and everything we could think of (even outside the hotel services) could be arranged at the hotel reception. And as a bonus, the breakfast was famous." - "Very friendly and helpful owners! Great location! Fantastic apartments."

- "Friendly staff. Very near to lake. Professional and personal touch. Mayer’s restaurant dining experience is superb." - "At that time, there were two options, and I was very glad that I finally chose this one to stay for two days." - "Highly recommend staying here, it's such a unique experience to stay in a castle! We stayed in a couple 5 star hotels in Austria before coming here and the beds here were the most comfortable! Annette was incredible - I was under the weather and she was so warm and hospitable, bringing me meds and tea to get better. The castle is beautiful and they've done a great job keeping the charm and tradition yet making sure that the bathrooms are renovated and rooms are equipped with everyone you need."
