“perfection”

Let me start with the one negative. There is no air conditioning. For much of the year this is likely not a problem, but in the dead of summer, and with rising temperatures, it can become uncomfortably hot. That out of the way, everything else was perfect.

Let me start with the one negative. There is no air conditioning. For much of the year this is likely not a problem, but in the dead of summer, and with rising temperatures, it can become uncomfortably hot. That out of the way, everything else was perfect. Traunkirschen is among the smaller towns on Traunsee, and unlike Gmunden to the north, there is very little there. But that tranquility is precisely its charm. The hotel is right on the lake, with stunning water and mountain views, There’s a small swimming inlet, and nearby you can rent motorboats (a highly recommended activity—not too expensive, and no rowing required!). And while the village itself is tiny, it's conveniently close to several other places of interest including the Feuerkogel cable car (absolutely worth doing), the spa town of Bad Ischl, Gmunden, and other lakes in the area. The rooms are large and while not fancy, are well appointed, with comfortable beds and bedding and a nice rain shower in the bathroom (again, the one negative being the lack of a/c). Breakfast was out of this world, top quality and HUGE selection. I don't think I have ever had a nicer hotel breakfast experience. There is also a spa on the top floor with a swimming pool (with lovely views and a jacuzzi function), sauna, and lounging chairs. It is all included! Finally the staff, which I feel is what can make or break a hotel experience, was truly nice and helpful, without exception. Would I recommend this hotel? Without hesitation. Unless you want to be in a big town with hustle and bustle, or air conditioning is a non-negotiable this is one of the most charming places I have stayed at, and though expensive, worth every penny.

What an amazing place and the hotel and surroundings fully lived up to our expectations. It was a great experience from the check-in to we left with an amazing Spa area and pool with bubbles.

We will give our warmest recommendation to everyone who wants to relax and enjoy. Thanks, Post am see .. we’ll be back :-)

“So close to 5 star”

I had booked this hotel for a special occasion and was looking forward to the ‘freien Blick auf den See’ (uninterrupted view of the lake) from an upper level. Our room, although lovely, was probably a level too low and there was a house that interrupted a view. This may seem petty, but was a small … lisää

I had booked this hotel for a special occasion and was looking forward to the ‘freien Blick auf den See’ (uninterrupted view of the lake) from an upper level. Our room, although lovely, was probably a level too low and there was a house that interrupted a view. This may seem petty, but was a small pity for us. The bed was extremely comfortable and the bathroom big and lovely. We appreciate a separate toilet. The furnishings were modern and appealing. The lift and bathroom near the restaurant need to be seen .. quirkily wonderful. The rooftop pool, although small is especially wonderful if you manage to be there at a time with only a few people. The outlook is very special. The sauna and quiet area are lovely too. Parking is a little tricky but the staff are very helpful in explaining how it works and we were lucky to always find a spot across the road. We would definitely stay here again but just ask for a room higher up.

“Hot and noisy”

Room, bed and bathroom were comfortable, modern, clean and good. The problem was that the room was very hot. There was no aircon, which I expected from a 4 star hotel of this standard. For sustainability reasons perhaps? But then they could at least have a fan. Because of the heat, we had to open … lisää

Room, bed and bathroom were comfortable, modern, clean and good. The problem was that the room was very hot. There was no aircon, which I expected from a 4 star hotel of this standard. For sustainability reasons perhaps? But then they could at least have a fan. Because of the heat, we had to open the window, and as the hotel is in the centre of the village, we were kept awake until 2am by people yelling, singing and partying very loudly in the square below. I did not expect a tiny village to be this noisy on an ordinary Tuesday night. So a hot and noisy night. There was supposed to be some cooling system in the room, but that is apparently not installed in the rooms on our floor. No one made us aware of this or of any other possibility for cooling the room. Other than that, everything good, excellent breakfast, great view of the lake from our room. Nice spa area with great lake view.
