Nice location near Villach and the Faaker-See as well as near ski resorts. Very helpful and friendly staff. Pets welcome. If only the mattrass would have been better this would have been a solid 4 star review. That said, overall experience really solid.

Loved the place, friendly staff, cool owner

We arrived late at night to the hotel, reception was closed but the owner had left an envelope with everything we needed for our stay with a warm handwritten note (including instructions to get a beer from the fridge!) The room was clean and spacious, the property well maintained, and breakfast next morning delicious. Would definitely stay here again!

Clean, functional, nicely located hotel

Very nice location near a beautiful lake. The hotel was clean and well organized. We arrived very late at night and had no problem getting into our room. The room was clean and functional with an amazing view of the Alps from the balcony. The breakfast was good and the staff very friendly and helpful. We were on our way to Tuscany but would definitely consider staying at this hotel for a longer stay in the future. It’s a bit run down in some areas and could use a face lift but all in all, a very good stay! Would recommend!

La camera era pulita e molto spaziosa ed il personale veramente cordiale, accogliente ed attento. Colazione a buffet con dolce e salato anche se poca varietà. Adatto a famiglie, con zona giochi bimbi molto carina. Posto a 2 passi dal lago (volendo anche dal Panorama che ha accesso gratuito al lago).

Sehr netter Empfang und ein ordentliches, sauberes Zimmer. Wir haben diese Unterkunft als Zwischenstop nach Kroatien besucht. Über das Essen in der Unterkunft können wir nicht viel sagen da an diesem Abend ein Grillabend veranstaltet wurde. Das Grillgut selber war sehr gut. Es gab eine große Auswahl an verschiedenen Fleischsorten, Fisch, Grillgemüse und eine gut sortierte Salatbar. Das Frühstücksbuffet war gut. Es gab ausreichend Wurst, Käse, verschiedene Aufstriche und Frühstückscerealien. Zu erwähnen ist hier auch das frisch gemachte Rührei. An der Kaffeemaschine gab es eine große Auswahl an verschiedenen Kaffeespezialitäten. Die Vermieterin gab uns noch einen guten Ausflugstip. Die Tropfsteinhöhle von Postojna war sehr schön und ein Zwischenstop wert. Danke hierfür.

Die Umgebung ist traumhaft schön. Für einen längeren Aufenthalt ist es durch die Straße sehr Laut und kein Erholungsfaktor. Für ein bis Übernachtungen dennoch gut geeignet. Die Besitzer sind sehr freundlich und das anliegende Restaurant ist auch Prima. Ausflüge sind von der Unterkunft in kurzer Zeit zu erreichen.

Typ für Familienurlaub

Wir (5-er Familie) haben hier eine super Urlaubszeit im März 2022 mit Schifahren jeden Tag verbracht. Das Hotel hat gute Lage, man hat eine schöne Aussicht direkt aus den Zimmern, das Autobahnkreuz in vier Richtungen ist in der Nähe. Das Apartment Nr. 1 ist sehr gut für Familien ausgestattet, da sind sogar 2 WC und ebenso 2 Duschen - heutzutage kaum zu sehen. Die Gastgeber sind eine nette und freundliche Familie, erfüllen gerne alle Wünsche, jeder Morgen hatten wir ein reichhaltiges Frühstücksbuffet. Wir kommen bestimmt gerne wieder.
