Reviews for Hotel Sonnwirt

Review 1:Location is a little bit far to the lake than i expect (but it is still close in walk distance anyway)

Review 2:Exterior is antique but the interior is modern and clean

Review 3:I booked a room with a view of the mountain, which we got, but I didn't realize we would be as close to it as we were, but we are thinking of going back, so it can't be that bad.

Review 4:Some of the rooms have stunning views across the lake, the staff are excellent and go out of their way to make you feel welcome.

Review 5:The bathroom was tiny and stunk strongly of urine. Only earl grey tea available as black tea - unless you request it. The buffet was just about adequate. Fruit platter was almost empty when we came down and the remaining fruit brown around the edges. They also have a serious wasp problem

Review 6:The rooms had been nicely renovated. The windows kept the street noise out completely. Good black tea - but had to be asked for

Review 7:Sure the location is close to the lake. But there is a busy highway in between. And even though close to the water, you have to walk for 10ish mins to get to a public swiming place.

Review 8:Good price and all over descent

Review 9:The location having a nice view had the trade off of Aldo being next to the road. We were therein a weekday and traffic was loud in the morning with windows open and still audible although better with closed windows. Unfortunately showers led to a wet floor all over our new and modern bathroom. Breakfast was not satisfying: It started with cups that were not clean, coffee not being particularly tasty, no wholewheat bread, etc. In Austria and that kind of place I usually see significantly better quality for breakfast.

Review 10:The room was renovated and thus very modern as well as clean. From the balcony one has a nice (partial) view over lake Wolfgangsee.

Review 11:everything as expected ;)

Review 12:The lake is just across the street, to go swimming it's just a 10min walk.. they (Hotel) also rent bikes for free and it's easy to get around there.. very nice

Review 13:Overcharged on dinner and some items. Eg paid city tax for two people and a dog for four days when we stayed three nights. This left a bit of a sour taste when we left

Review 14:Location

Review 15:Staff at the breakfast look not appreciate their work. After paying we have noted the manager charged us more that we expected on Booking.com. He was confuse on its explanations and so he accept to refund us the difference.

Review 16:Nice room very design and comfortable at cheap price. Closed location and nice view at cheap price. The breakfast room. We did not try the restaurant.

Review 17:The standard of the restaurant did not live up to that of the rest of the hotel. It was messy and only had 2 waiting staff which meant tables were not cleared. The breakfast buffet was not replenished often enough.

Review 18:Cleanliness was excellent and standard of furnishings was lovely. The TV was good for English speaking guests as it had more channels than most.

Review 19:I wasn't very satisfied with the restaurant (food was average, had to wait quite long).

Review 20:Clean, spacious and comfortable room, helpful staff. I really liked that there is a choice of bicycles to use free of charge.

Review 21:The glass door separating the bedroom and the bathroom is not confortable at all and there was no fridge in the room.

Review 22:Very good location, nice design furniture, friendly staff at reception.

Review 23:Internet access was intermittent and slow from our apartment.

Review 42:Staff and facilities. St Gilgen is a very pretty town.

Review 43:Shower made a huge mess.

Review 44:Overall good, but noisy from traffic and road work.

Review 45:Internet so-so

Review 46:Mordern room Friendly staff Outdoor sauna Close to the center Breakfast buffet offer a wide range of product

Review 47:Everything except the balcony.( no towels, no minibar, very little room etc...) It's very,very overpriced.

Review 48:The balcony

Review 49:noisy, road between hotel and the lake, small 103 room

Review 50:A stunning location and an excellent hotel

Review 51:No minibar or drinks fridge in room A drinks dispensing machine for both hot and cold drinks would suffice in the foyer for guests to use between meals and would overcome this. Rooms are not air-conditioned for warmer weather.

Review 52:Nice surprise of elevator in hotel which helped with aged parents who were travelling with us. Lake view rooms had lovely views Breakfast excellent Easy walking distance to Busbahnhof and centre of town including the boat station Manager very friendly and helpful

Review 53:Not directly on the lake as advertised but across a highway from it. Bathroom wall and door was made of glass, letting you see everything the other person is doing... awkward! Not a fan.

Review 54:Staff were amazing Deck was large and nice Room was very clean and modern They welcomed our pets

Review 55:Nothing.

Review 56:The location is really great, calm and comfortable. The parking was also a big advantage. We travelled with a dog and staff was really nice with her.

Review 57:Friendly, responsive and professional staff. Very nice hotel with an awesome lake view from the balcony. Recommend! You will enjoy staying at this hotel!

Review 58:1St floor double room with poor bathroom ventilation. Everythingremained wet after taking shower. Mold on wall in back of nightstand.Description of "mountain view" for room is false; should readalley view. Disruptive construction on outside wall started at 8:00am,including hammering. It's unfortunate because from the the outside,this hotel looks nice and has great potential. However, it's stillundergoing renovations and is clearly not yet ready for prime time. Iwould not recommend staying here unless you don't mind renovations,noise, and mold.

Review 59:Comfortable bed, decent breakfast.

Review 60:Everything was great.

Review 61:Updated facility. Great view of the lake & 5 minute walk into the center of town. Staff was very helpful spending time to help me resolve issues with my car.

Review 62:Design in the rooms are nicely modern, but the overall design of thehotel is a mess. A mixture of everything. There is no mountain view,that view is to a street. The restaurant is a bit messy sometimes andthe food is on the poor side. The bathroom is basically just a part ofthe room, separated with glass, partially cloaked. No fridge in theroom, no roomsafe. Lack of power outlets. Lack of towel for steppingonto for the shower. Lock on the door was broken, also only 1 keycardwas provided.

Review 63:The hotel is lovely, nicely situated. Everything is clean and neat,the rooms are nicely designed but with flaws.We had a parking spotevery day although it needed a bit of luck. Furniture, cushion etcwere good quality.

Review 64:Renovated hotel with cheap materials. Open since june 2013 and new furniture already worn out. So if they don't renew it every year it will become a not so nice place very soon. Breakfast was until 10 but at 9 h30 it was already difficult to get everything. Very small and unpractical bath room. No fridge, no hair dryer, no safe...still saving for this maybe?

Review 65:Room with lake view! The view is worth it, you have a balcony where you can sit and relax and that's nice. Location is very good, close to village. Parking at the hotel and you are allowed to place your bikes in their garage. No noise from the street.

Review 66:Weather very hot and would have appreciated some form of cooling device in the bedrooms. Even with the balcony door open it was too hot to sleep.

Review 67:Friendly and helpful staff. Bedrooms very stylish

Review 68:There were a few minor things missing from the apartment, like hooks to hang bath towels and dish soap to clean the dishes provided. The staff responded quickly to any suggestions we had.

Review 69:The hotel has been renovated, and all the furnishings were brand new. The location is within a 10 minute walk of the downtown area in st. Gilgen, with ample restaurants and a playground for school aged kids.

Review 70:No washing/dryer machines room!! The toilet needs hangers for towels and shampoo/slipers The kitchen needs more stuff e.g. Microwave

Review 71:First of all I want to mention that the hotel when I stayed in was recently open (During June 2013) so some facilities were under constructions such as GYM, Sauna and the restaurant was partially opened (Fully opened on 28th of June 2013), so I could not give it 10/10. The staff of the hotel (Peter and Fernando etc.), the location of the hotel and the appartment's lake view were wonderful and attracted me to the hotel. Supermarker (Spar 2 min. by car) Salzburg (30 min. by car) Designer outlet of Salzburg (40 min. by car) Lake (2 min. wake) Haus (house) of Nature (30 min. by car) many activities nearby (cable car, boat, train up to the mountain etc.) and the friendly staff will guide you. Mr. Peter was keen to here from the guests and take their comments. Free Car park Free WiFi The hotel has appartments which follow the appartments system in terms of no cleaning services! Easy check in and check out

Review 72:Friendly staff and delicious food. Nice place and romantic hotel by lake in good condition.

Review 73:Shower cubicle too small. Water on floor. Needs a door to the shower cubicle

Review 74:Big room very clean excellent location

Review 75:The rooms, the free bike rents, the sauna's, the staff (Josko is a legend). It's a great hotel and I would recommend it to everyone!
