Wonderful friendly hotel in an extremely beautiful setting high in the Austrian Tyrol next to a big lake. The staff were excellent and they took care of guests every need with nothing seeming too much trouble for them. The food was superb both at breakfast and dinner which along with a nice little bar made our holiday very enjoyable. All of the rooms are spotless and well equipped and with the facilities provided throughout this hotel no one could fail to enjoy a stay.. Congratulations to all involved.

We arrived at the reception where we were greeted by the receptionists all in their traditional costumes. A nice touch.However throughout our stay the staff generally were morose and looked miserable. There were exceptions from two of them however who always had a smile and were very helpful, This hotel is beautifully situated and within walking distance of the stunning lake Achensee. We were given Room 212 which was large, comfortable and very clean. The bathroom and toilet were separate but both were very clean. I was impressed with the dining room which was large and attractively furnished in typical Austrian fashion. Pleasantly surprised by the price of the drinks which were not extortionate. The waiting staff in general were obliging and efficient. There was one female waitress who throughout our stay was miserable with a face like thunder. She clearly demonstreted a dislike for the british guests. I asked for a glass of tap water at dinner the first evening ans she responded with 'You have to pay' She charged me 1 euro which I thought was extotrtinate. I don't think there should be a charge for tap water at all so that was a spoiler. They also charged me 8 euros to use the very small safe in our room. We had a stunning view of the mountains from our balcony. It was a shame that the lady owner was a bit anti together with some members of her staff. Rather spoilt the whole experience. In general I have to agree with the comments made by B345WNmark

We don't review hotels very often, but after reading Mark of Oxford's review we thought we would. If he was on the same trip as us with Shearings, the owners were always friendly and approachable. All the meals were good and there was plenty of choice. Cornflakes aren't healthy! Ordering meals in the morning was a sensible idea and nothing went wrong with ours. We had no problem about paying for drinks as we went as it meant it wasn't a shock at the end of the week. They were very reasonably priced compared to the overnight stop hotel. The swimming pool and jacuzzi were excellent, what could be better than sitting in a jacuzzi in the sunshine, at 4pm, looking at snowcapped mountains. The mid week pig roast and evening were very entertaining. Our room was comfortable and clean and, if from the balcony you looked upwards, the views of the mountains were stunning! We thought the £450 for a 9 day holiday was exceptional!
