Romantik Hotel Zell am See

Travelled with a group of friends and several children. The hotel is charming, the bulk of the main building being very old with some modern additions to the rear. The staff were always friendly and accommodating. We all went half board and were well fed with good food. Breakfast was a wealth of choice, both continental and some English staples. Dinner was equally good, you could effectively have a 5 course meal every day. A great hotel in a great setting both winter and summer. Thank you so much Sabine and Family

Beautiful hotel in a great location central to the town. You have to wind your way through a few little streets to get to the hotel. Great on site free parking was a great bonus. The hotel is hundreds of years old and is in a beautiful traditional style in side and out. The check in was easy and the staff were lovely, all dressed in traditional costume. Room was big and well equipped. Kettle and cups, tea/coffee but no milk. There are lovely gardens to sit out in and a lovely indoor/outdoor pool. Unfortunately for us the weather was not good enough for us to give it a go. Spa is nice with sauna (nude and clothed parts). We did spend the afternoon in the spa but the pool was too cool for our liking. Breakfast was wonderful - plenty of choice with omelettes, fried eggs, bacon and sausage cooked to order as well as plenty of cereals, fruit and salads. The hotel allocate tables to guests which we thought was quaint but we felt a little out of the hub of people as we were set aside in another room with 2 or 3 other families. Think it was to do with separating out half board from b&b. We didn't eat dinner at the hotel but it was buzzing for dinner but dead by 10.30. We loved the lazy daisy bar just a short stroll away, great food, atmosphere and position. Zell is beautiful but we were surprised at the number of visitors from the Middle East , appears it is a favourite with Saudi and UAE visitors looking to get away from the heat. Great to see but just surprised.

A traditional family run hotel with a feeling of Austrian heritage. The hotel offered a summer card which was a real bonus and allowed free us of local transport and access to local attractions. Our room was lovely- spacious and comfortable. Breakfast was plentiful and staff very helpful. The restaurant was very pleasant, but we felt the bar area could have been better staffed to create more atmosphere. All in all a very nice hotel in a good central location for the town.
