Charming classic hotel in an excellent lakeside position. The superior room had a lovely view and a small balcony. The restaurant was very good. Worth staying in. And we were lucky enough to get one of the few parks in the hotel parking space. Recommended

Pretty little town on the lake, with a couple of excellent restaurants nearby serving local cuisine mostly. Lots to see, lovely walks, hikes and drives. One glaring problem they need to address ASAP. Gmunden lacks a decent 4/5 star hotel. There are a couple which are adequate 3 stars.

Quaint lake town. Highly recommend a short overnight trip. Enjoy dinner at Hackall restaurant. Amazing pizza. But make reservations. Take an electric boat for an affordable lake experience. Apartment accommodations were great

Very nice city with a breathtaking view with a castle on the lake and high hills covered in clouds.
The lake is crystal clear, so perfect for swimming, or sailing.
There are ferrys that can take you to other parts of the lake.
Just an absolutely gorgeous and clean city with very welcoming people.
Many art galleries and all sorts of exhibitions.
We also reccomend Hotel Zum Goldenen Hirschen in the city centre with a luxury design and very nice staff.

Amazing lake town, with a special sea-lake architecture.
Amazing lake town, with a special sea-lake architecture. Small but charming and the locals are very friendly.
The town offers many activities such as: an electric boat ride on the lake, a cable car that leads to the mountain above the lake, from where there is a fantastic view of the glaciers and the Alps.

The city is boring, it was a disappointing experience.
The city is boring, it was a disappointing experience.
The Esplanade Hotel in the City Center is a disaster (including a pizzeria there) - go to the Esplanade Hotel in Zagreb (Croatia) and see what the service and luxury is. We left the day before, this is a city of old people….
This hotel is really stunning. It’s so modern and chic with beautiful fixtures and finishes. The room we were in was large with a good sized walk out terrace. The shower and tub in the room were great, it was liking being at a spa! The staff was always working to keep the facilities in pristine condition. The location was just perfect. Centrally located. Only a few minutes walk from anywhere you’d want to be. We would definitely recommend. Especially in the cooler months.
I only stayed one night at the hotel but everything was great. I was warmly welcomed at the check-in, the process was easy and smooth and i received all the information i needed. The room was spacious and clean and most importantly very quiet.
Breakfast was fantastic, not too big but with great quality and just what i needed. Next visit in Gmunden i will definitely stay in this hotel.
The apartment was a great spot for three of us travelers who were in town for a friend’s wedding. The common area offered so much space for sleeping on the pullout couch and congregating during breakfasts. Everything was spotless, the apartment is in a great location near the water, and accessing the unit was a breeze. Thanks for a a great stay in Gmunden!
Location is superb, right in the center. Everything is within walking distance. The room was clean, the host and the staff were very nice. In case you don't speak german, they speak english. There's a private garage for the guests, just enter straight from the main street and ignore the "traffic prohibited" sign (it doesn't apply to the hotel guests).
Big room with 2 bathrooms (one with shower and one with bath tub). Excellent and healthy breakfast with many options. View from the restaurant was spectacular. The location of the hotel was perfect, it was close to everything. Parking was in the garage just under the hotel (it´s not included in the price but it was worth it).
The hotel and restaurant had a traditional ambience, and I felt comfortable for the entirety of my stay. The staff were kind and helpful. They helped me store my bicycle in the evenings, and offered wake-up calls in the morning. The food was among the very best that I have ever had in Gmunden, and the price was superb.
Nina was one of the most welcoming hosts we've ever met. The apartment was at a perfect location, just a few minutes walk from the Gmunden Esplanade and the downtown. It had a stylish, modern design, was spacious enough and was equipped with everything for a pleasant stay. Absolutely recommended!
Great location, 10 minutes of beautiful walk along the shore of Traunsee to the beautiful Gmunden center of town. Super close to Grunberg cable car, 30 minutes from several amazing small lakes.
Wonderful breakfast, very spacious, comfortable modern rooms.
Very helpful staff.
Hotel was very nice and clean located in a fantastic location overlooking the lake. Plenty of parking behind the hotel and lifts for the higher rooms. Staff very friendly and helpful. The 1 course of food we managed to get was very good.
Old but charming building right in the middle of Gmunden and near the splendid lake Traunsee. Nice restaurant and very good breakfast. People running this hotel ar really devoted to their guests.
We liked everything in this hotel!!! From staffs, location, comfort, food… And surprisingly, they even have a small library, which we found lovely and interesting collection of books.
The location is great, very easy to get around and very near the tram station. I liked the historical part of the hotel, that a lot of kings and queens have been guest there.
The position in Gmunden was perfect and the staff were attentive and friendly. The apartment had recently been renovated to a good standard. The lift made life a lot easier
spacious apartment perfectly located to access shops, swimming spots and everything Gmunden has to offer. The mountain view from the terrace was stunning.
