Location
Guest Reviews
The location could hardly be better: literally on the town square, with a stunning view over the lake. We stayed for 2 nights in a 3rd floor junior suite #301 with a very large terrace, which was furnished with a dining set, umbrella and two padded loungers. It was a wonderful place to unwind and take in the view.
The spacious, classically-furnished suite was comfortable, with 2 comfy armchairs, a desk and a particularly useful hall table — perfect for keeping sunglasses, keys and phones. The bathroom had large windows bringing in natural light, as well as a bidet, and a shower/tub combination that had an awkwardly placed shower-head in the middle of the wall rather than at the end, making it difficult to shower without splashing the floor. One small omission: there were no washcloths.
The king bed was exceedingly comfortable, and I believe the staff had kindly added a plush mattress topper at my request. The pillows were also good. Unfortunately, the bedding was much too heavy for the weather. The sheets were flannel-like and the duvet and its cover were very thick. Hallstatt was extremely hot during our stay and, as there is no air-conditioning in the hotels, we sweltered at night — particularly on the 3rd floor. The hotel provided a small Dyson fan, but it simply wasn’t powerful enough to make much difference. We understand the restrictions on air-conditioning, but the hotel could easily improve the situation by providing substantially larger, stronger fans and lighter summer bedding.
One person deserves special mention: Claudia, the housekeeper, was exceptional — hands down the best we have encountered in our travels. She had a wonderfully positive, “fix any problem” and “provide any service” attitude, and went well beyond expectations, even looking after us after her working hours. Claudia is an immense credit to the hotel and made our 2-night stay particularly enjoyable.
Breakfast offered a good selection of both savoury and sweet options, although everything was buffet-style and nothing was made to order. Dinner was tasty.
And if you’re inclined, you can simply slip into the lake from the ladder on the dock directly in front of the hotel. I did — and it was heavenly.
Overall, I would recommend this hotel for its charming furnishings, spectacular lakefront setting and unbeatable location. With a few very inexpensive improvements — namely stronger fans and lighter bedding in hot weather — management could make an appealing hotel considerably more comfortable.
Offensichtlicher hoteldirektor hatte so einen indischen dialekt im englisch dass man ihn kaum verstand. So wie ich es einschätze auch keine bemühungen den unverständlichen dialekt zu verbessern. Hotelrestaurant serviert so dermassen kleine portionen auf überdimensionierten tellern dass wenn man auf nachfrage nachschlag möchte weil es einfach nicht genug ist, die zweite mini portion auch noch doppelt zahlen muss. Ziemliche frechheit diese portionen!
Our stay in Hallstatt was absolutely unforgettable. The views here are truly breathtaking and unlike anything else in the world, with the dramatic mountains meeting the serene lake. While the standard check-in time wasn't until 3:00 PM, we found the perfect strategy to enjoy this popular destination. I highly recommend arriving later in the afternoon or early evening. Once the last ferries leave and the heavy crowds of day-trippers depart, the town completely transforms. Walking through the quiet, winding streets at evening feels like you have the entire fairytale village all to yourself. It is peaceful, romantic, and the absolute best way to experience Hallstatt's true charm. If you want to avoid the crowds and see the town at its best, plan for a later arrival and enjoy the evening calm!
The view from our balcony was absolutely lovely. We would book that room again! The location was also fantastic. Right by the town square with easy walking around the town and lake access. About a 10-15 minute walk to the parking garage outside of town.
There was a heat wave and so it was VERY hot. They provided a small floor fan which didn't do much at all as far as move air around. A larger fan or ceiling fan would have made things much more comfortable. It made sleeping uncomfortable. So I'm not sure if it was just the heat or if the bed wasn't super comfortable.
After paying for the hotel, I messaged them to specify exactly when I would arrive. They confirmed the booking and said they were expecting me. When I arrived, however, I found the door locked and the place deserted. I spent three hours trying to get in touch with someone. People from other hotels tried to help me, but I was left waiting helplessly outside the hotel I had already paid for. They are incompetent and terrible people.
Posizione stupenda sul lago
Colazione turistica
Personale poco gentile
Stile dell'arredamento non di mio gusto
L’emplacement et la terrasse du restaurant pour dîner le soir. Le personnel très agréable.
La literie et la chambre globalement qui ne correspond pas au prix de 400 euros la nuit.
Le petit déjeuner est moyen avec un choix basique avec néanmoins quelques bons produits. La vue avec centre d’intérêt est déplorable.
Great location. Nice staffs
We had a wonderful stay at Seehotel Grüner Baum in Hallstatt with our family in July 2026. The location was absolutely beautiful, right by Lake Hallstatt, with breathtaking views of the lake and the surrounding mountains.
Our room was comfortable and the atmosphere was peaceful and relaxing. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and helpful throughout our stay, making our family feel very comfortable as well as the restaurant staff. It was the perfect place to relax, enjoy the beauty of Austria, and spend quality time together as a family.
None
I have never eaten better food, especially the bread. The staff were very friendly.
The concierge was not that helpful regarding local hiking. One of the rooms we stayed in had a persistent mildew smell in the bathroom.
Lokalizacja, widok z okna
Obsługa fatalna, brak czynnej recepcji po 20. Brak jakiejkolwiek informacji . Nie można się nigdzie dodzwonić. Karta nie działała do pokoju. Noc spędzona na zewnątrz 😱. Dramat. Nie polecam
