Pros +
- Everything about the hotel is perfect. Our room was spacious, very clean, bright. The breakfast was excellent! The wellness area is great. Staff is very friendly. What made this stay exceptional was being able to use the wellness area even after 9 pm, being allowed a free late check-out and even use the wellness area after the late checkout.Will definitely visit the hotel again.
- Clean spacious modern room with large deck. Very good breakfast. Well located. Good secure bike storage with eBike charging.
- We've arrived before check-in time and our room was already prepared and we could get the keys. Very friendly Staff. Hotel has nice Sauna and room for ski and bikes. Breakfast reach with big choice of food. The elevator in the hotel is also a great convenience.
Cons -
- If I had to nit-pick something, I guess the mattresses could be a little bit more comfortable but this is complaining on a very high level.
- Hotel location is directly by the church which starts ringing the bells at 7 o clock at the morning and then every 15 minutes for the whole day, closed windows didn't help at all. Room was not cleaned too good. We found empty bottle on the balcony and stains in bathroom floor and toilet. The beds were very soft and we got back pain after those two nights. Moving heavy bikes to and from basement could be as well better organized.
- the room furniture was oldyou have to pay extra if you are bringing a pet

perfect location, right in the city center

Hotel is located very close to ski lift (6-7 minutes by foot or just 2 minutes by local village bus which goes every 15 minutes), they provide rich breakfast with real Italian coffee, sauna and infrared cabin is included in accommodation rate which gives full relaxation after skiing.Modern and stylish design of the rooms and hotel in light colours with bright accents let to feel energised and powerful. Helpful and charming personnel ready to assist with every quest requests.Highly recommended to visit and feel Austrian hospitality.
The hotel was offering a great price as compared to different places available nearby (mid-Aug'2023). We picked it for the 2+2 family Summer 2-day stay for the tour to the GrossGlockner High Alps Road and therefore the location was perfect. Two wow's! happened: one for the free nearby Aquapark (Solarbad Gastein) access coupons and the other one for the rich breakfasts with regional specialties. The staff were also very kind, helpful and communicative - thank you:) The room was well designed (I mean simple but nice looking, design-wise), had access to wooden balcony providing beautiful views to the area and was quite modern and clean - no flaws, rather standard +. Despite only 3 floors the hotel provides spacious elevator. There is water with citrus available free of charge for the thirsty guests, by the reception. Lobby and the restaurant design is really welcoming and favourable. There is wifi available but we had no time to take advantage of it - due to being hungry to walk around the village and dip into its aura. I saw ski-storage room for the Winter visits, too, and there was a spa facilities which we did not have a long enough stay to take advantage of - but they existed. Besides, beautiful and super-clean shared toilets on the underground floor.
The parking is not guaranteed and you can end up driving around in search of the spot by the street. The church bell tower neighbourhood can have its fans for the easy central location pointer;) and antagonists, for the daily 7AM rather loud concerts;)
the view
dinner was served in another place, not in the hotel at is was mentioned at the time we've made the reservation. the food was good, but we didn't have many options to choose from.
cleaning and the view
the fact that the dinner is served in another place, with few options to choose from
lovely breakfast in a stunning room, hotel was easy to find on a beautiful location, nice and cosy room. We got the family suit for 4 people, it was enough for one night's sleep.. There's free parking around the corner of the hotel. The hotel cooperates with the local Thermal spa Felsentherme and you can buy discounted tickets, they even provide the towels for the spa :) Not bad at all
We'd appreciate if breakfast would start a bit earlier since we have early roaming toddlers and the coffee would have been of far better quality.
Localisation, comfort, view from the window
The sauna was closed too early, 8.00 P.M.This is the moment when usually people start sauna rituals.
Nice location in the village centre, hotel is modern but still blends in well. Room was spotless clean. Great breakfast and very helpful staff.
Contemporary design works great in common areas, but is not ideal for the rooms. Very soft and low quality mattress.
surrounding nature is beautiful, lovely little town. breakfast was excellent. place is clean, modern inside. mattress of the bed was very comfortable.
parking around the hotel is limited, but we just parked next to it and all was ok. my son had to sleep between us in the bed, he didn’t have a separate bed and I mentioned we are 3 in my booking but we were fine, we slept good.
clean, free parking few steps to the hotel
the view of the 3 room I reserved was a cemetery. the hotel was full no chance to change my rooms
The staff of the hotel are very friendly. We arrived earlier than the check in time and we were allowed to check in earlier. The hotel and the room are very clean. Variety of breakfast offering is excellent. Dorfgastein is a small but very pretty village. Lots of dining choices and close to most of Gastein attraction! Overall, an excellent stay!!
The lady by the reception she was super helpful and attentive. Breakfast one of the best!!
No a/c in the room
beautifully presented and very attentive and friendly staff with nice restaurant attached in lovely village just below the mountains with ski lifts open in Summer for breathtaking walks over 2000 metres high
everything great !
super clean and modern. the staff were very friendly and the cycle storage room was exceptional with lots of sockets to charge your e-bike.
very modern room/hotel, breakfast spread was excellent, view of mountains, sauna
The rooms were modern and clean. Good sized with extra chairs and table. Staff was excellent - friendly and helpful. No staff complained to us even though we were a big group and our kids took mattresses into other rooms to sleep together! The staff was very accomodating in the dining room as well, making us up 2 big tables and dealing with all our special needs! All the while with smiling faces! Terrific!Breakfast was delicious with many different things to eat: cereals, fruit, cold cuts, eggs (both scrambled and hard/soft boiled...one day sunny side up as well), bacon, a selection of buns bread and croissants, jams,etc. Dinner was good as well with soup, salad, cheeses and dessert besides the main dish.The sauna and relax room were nice as well.
Some of our group found the mattresses soft. I found the pillows big (but I “borrowed” a smaller one from the sauna room). The showers open right into the room so make sure you are in a room together with someone you are comfortable with because you have to leave the shower either naked or in a towel. There are no towel holders or hooks close to the shower.Unfortunate that there is no pool. Also no billiard table or air hockey or other things for bigger kids (at least this way they went to bed relatively early).
Amazing value for price ratio. Clean, enough space, good location (close to the bus station to go to other villages for skiing). Dinner was amazing. Cool thing is sauna, to relax after skiing
Only thing is always same breakfast, no changes in menu there. But there is still a lot of options for breakfast.
