Hotels near Schafbergspitze, Sankt Gilgen

First of all, it should be mentioned that this hotel is a real eye-catcher. The location is optimal, isolated! The reception is extremely helpful with any requests (solstice bonfire, boat trip). Thank you very much for that. The rooms are very spacious, attention is paid to the little things, like the mini bishop's hat in the toothbrush glass!! Hospitality is a TOP priority here! The staff in the garden and in the restaurant, especially the men, are all great!! A consistent team that knows each other, you notice and feel that. One gentleman who was very calm and always found the right words in a highly professional, calm manner was a real positive, someone has to try and imitate that!!! The cuisine is magnificent, tradition and modernity combined, it doesn't get boring after a few days! Great enjoyment that other decorated restaurants don't offer at this level. Definitely! Big compliments to the whole kitchen!!!!!! We met the head chef personally and expressed our thanks, thank you very much for the kind words, it was a lovely chat, it was important to us to also compliment them on what goes on behind the scenes. From around 11pm you can experience a lot of peace and absolute silence (if that still exists anywhere in the world) directly by the lake or while walking along the barefoot path. We felt very comfortable and would love to come back to this wonderful place. Many thanks and best wishes to all the people who make this place what it is!!!

Wir haben Anfang August als Familie eine wundervolle Zeit in den Wolf und Schaf Apartments verbracht. Mit uns reisten unsere beiden Söhne, 12 und 14 Jahre alt, und wir alle waren begeistert von dieser Unterkunft. Bereits bei unserer Ankunft wurden wir herzlich empfangen, und das positive Gefühl setzte sich während unseres gesamten Aufenthalts fort. Das Apartment selbst war makellos sauber, modern eingerichtet und äußerst komfortabel. Es hat uns an nichts gefehlt – die Küche war bestens ausgestattet, die Betten gemütlich und der Wohnbereich großzügig. Besonders gut hat uns der Ausblick von unserem Balkon gefallen, der eine malerische Aussicht auf die umliegende Natur bot. Die Lage der Apartments ist ebenfalls ein großes Plus. Wir waren von der Schönheit der Umgebung überwältigt – perfekt für lange Spaziergänge, Radtouren oder einfach nur zum Entspannen. Unsere Jungs hatten jede Menge Spaß dabei, die Umgebung zu erkunden, und es gab viele Möglichkeiten, aktiv zu sein. Wir haben die Ruhe und Abgeschiedenheit sehr genossen, gleichzeitig waren alle wichtigen Sehenswürdigkeiten und Aktivitäten gut erreichbar. Besonders hervorheben möchten wir auch die Gastfreundschaft und den Service, die unseren Aufenthalt wirklich besonders gemacht haben. Wir fühlten uns rundum wohl und konnten uns hervorragend erholen. Wir sind uns sicher, dass wir nicht zum letzten Mal in den Wolf und Schaf Apartments waren. Eine klare Empfehlung für Familien und alle, die eine perfekte Mischung aus Komfort, Natur und Gastfreundschaft suchen! Familie Jehle

We lived here 2 weeks and feel very well. Little but beautiful and convenient 1-Zimmer-Appartement in the 1. OG with balcony and perfect sea view in a nice old villa, parking in the courtyard. The staircase is quite unusual, not appropriate and so doesn't suit the claim of the apartment. Kitchen and bathroom very small, but all there you need, including bed linen, towels and toilet paper. All right except on the floor, which could have been cleaner at our arrival (it was probably just sucked), under the bed was next to a lot of dust even waste from the predecessors! House is located on the congestive road towards the Schafbergbahn, always what happens and much to see who has a light sleep should take Ohropax. For this absolutely central and directly to the lake. The house is very quiet, you can't hear the neighbors. Small bathroom, bar and water sports rental as well as boat shuttle to the hotel directly opposite. The walking area and the ”centre” with restaurants etc are available in 2 minutes walk, just as the Rössl Hotel, where you can use the spa area, including towels and bath coats. Spint keys can be borrowed against caution for all the time. It is always very friendly and helpful staff at the hotel reception and in the spa area. Small spa area, not as large as in a clean wellness hotel but completely enough to rest on rain days or after walking. Beautiful sauna with sea view and a beautiful steam bath with a nice rest room. The advice on the correct use of the sauna would be useful because of the many international guests (previously shower, sitting on the towel, without shoes, etc.). Tea and apples are included, also treadboats at the lake. Beautiful sun terrace directly on the lake with beds inside and outside. We have always got a good place. All despite the many visitors clean and ordenly, partly somewhat used in the swimming pool area. We were just swimming in the lake and we could see that almost all bathroom guests went undouched in the hot outdoor pool and the whirlpool - showers are not easy to find below and there are no indications for use (which would be beneficial because of the large international guests - not few wear underwear under the bathroom ...). We have enjoyed buying the small packaging for the location and other benefits.

The White Horse Hotel on Lake Wolfgang is well-deserved and the hotel is almost an attraction. It is located in the heart of the town, next to the town’s church, the hotel’s swimming pool and Wolfgang Lake are close to each other and can be conveniently located at the lake. Swimming in the indoor and outdoor pools of the hotel. The hotel breakfast is not particularly rich, but the variety and taste are also quite satisfactory, but the dinner at the lake view restaurant is definitely worth a try, the taste is amazing, not the ordinary Michelin knife and fork. The only downside of the hotel is that the hot water temperature is not stable and it is easy to get cold and hot. After living, there is a question, how can this be just a four-star hotel?

Villa alma is the best accommodation for a trip to St. Gilgen. This accommodation is very clean, stylish and well-managed .There is an outdoor space where you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Wolfgang River, where you can enjoy a dry sauna. The dock to get to SchafbergBahn is within walking distance and very convenient for sightseeing. The delicious breakfast was also provided, so I had a happy time. This is a place I want to visit again. I really recommend it. Thank you to the staff who were very kind and warm.

The Landhaus zu Appesbach truly is a hidden jewel in Austria‘s Salzkammergut. The Duke of Windsor once stayed here for 5 weeks and found his ,,splendid isolation“. During our stay we stayed in the Windsor Suite offering ample of space with a combined living and sleeping room, a cabinet, a Roman bath & balcony as well as a terrace. All rooms and suites are individually designed with attention to detail. The country house’s restaurant offered an eccellent breakfast & dinner. The ladies and gentlemen in all departments did a good job in providing a personalized service. Overall an excellent experience. For further details in my stay kindly watch & subscribe my video Review in my YouTube Channel Truly Excellent Hotels & More.

My experience at the Jacob hotel was nothing short of perfect. The staff was friendly, and professional, the owner who was very welcoming and helpful in showing the best bike routes. The room is modern and with more than enough space (very cute the bike helmet holder on the wall). Breakfast served from 7 am includes a rich buffet with different types of milk and local produce. Dined at the hotel restaurant twice, including one in the lovely hotel garden, and were very satisfied with the menu and drinks. Bike service is on another level, with a mechanic available to support your setup needs. The rate includes free access to a 25m heated pool with a weekly lesson. Complimentary electric car charging. The beach on the lake is convenient and the scenery is unique. We will be back, definitely

This hotel is everything you expect from a well established family run Austrian lake side retreat. The protocol of its day to day running is well established and sound, removing the irritations that often come with a newer or badly managed establishment. The staff are well trained and informative. The food offerings are plentiful but not lavish or luxurious. I’ve been to other Austrian hotels where for example, the cold meats and breads at the buffet are of better quality and more abundant. More varieties of fruits and vegetables offered at the juice bar etc. This didn’t detract from the enjoyment for me personally but I mentally noted it and another guest who had been coming to the hotel for many years did say that the quality and quantity of F and B ‘wasn’t what it used to be’. Despite this I still enjoyed it and I am sure the hotel are doing its very best to make it work in a market that is probably more challenging of late in the face of rising costs and local staff shortages. Sometimes I felt like there was a rather meagre and ungenerous edge to some of the services eg charging 1.5 euros for a carafe of tap water at the table (when you didn’t order alcohol/wine), and the buffet choices mentioned above, hence my 4 rather than 5 star rating, however I would definitely return to this hotel and recommend it to others. I appreciated the positive environmental efforts the hotel are going to; a rather officious towel policy (well managed and not onerous) and the avoidance of plastic use. Excellent job. The rooms are super comfy and function well (if you want marble and brand new bathrooms and fixtures, don’t stay in this kind of hotel). The housekeeping is top notch. The spa services and facilities on offer are great. The massage I had was lovely. The staff are super lovely. The price is fair. I really enjoyed my time here. PS we upgraded our room mid stay. The reception assured us it would be an easy and seamless move, all done for us however it wasn’t at all. The porter who came refused to do it for us even though we had been told to the contrary. After throwing our things into a case at top speed we felt rather misled and when I raised it subsequently no one came to explain or apologise. Not a big thing but definitely an easy fix for the hotel - I guess things sometimes get missed or mis communicated.
