I would definitely recommend this hotel, it was quiet and only a ten minute walk to the beautiful town of Gmunden.

- "Location was phenomenal, very close to the lakefront. The room was beautifully decorated and extremely clean. The rooftop sauna was exceptional as well, and there are even two mountain bikes at the hotel for more adventurous guests. The breakfast was very nice, with a lot of hearty food options to suit different tastes. Lastly, the staff were incredibly friendly, answering all of our questions about the room and surrounding area, and making us feel welcome. The customer service definitely stood out :)"
