Landhotel Post Ebensee am Traunsee

The hotel is an older building that has been renovated. Our room was surprisingly spacious – it seemed to be one of the largest double rooms in the hotel. The room was clean. The furniture wasn't new, but it was fully functional, not broken or unsightly. In fact, it created a pleasantly homely atmosphere. All the amenities in both the room and the bathroom worked well. The Wi-Fi ran without any issues. The windows can't be fully opened, only tilted for ventilation, but that wasn't a problem. Upon arrival, you'll receive a SommerCard at the reception – a discount card that you can use, for example, when buying a ticket for the cable car to Feuerkogel. You'll also get a map of the surrounding area and tourist attractions, including those where discounts can be applied. There's a parking lot in front of the hotel where you can leave your car. Behind the hotel is St. Joseph's Church, and that's a bit of an issue. The church bells ring from 6 AM to 10 PM. Our room was on the other side, so the bells weren't too annoying. However, on the side facing the church, it could be quite unpleasant. As other reviews mention, the breakfasts are quite varied and tasty. On the other hand - by the sixth day of our stay, I was looking for something new, but that's probably the case everywhere. I recommend renting bikes at the reception. They have trekking e-bikes (25 EUR/day) and mountain e-bikes (30 EUR/day). The bikes are in good condition, including the brakes, battery, etc. You can cycle around half the lake, go to Gmunden, or ascend to one of the surrounding lakes.

The room was great and storage + charging for our bicycles was very convenient. As noted above the reception lady Gerda Leitner was Outstanding!! She was my Austrian Angel on getting care for my injured hand. She "pegged the meter" on service above and beyond the call of duty. We highly recommend this hotel and their outstanding staff.
