Hotel Schloss Seefels

Absolutely wonderful stay at this beautiful property. The amenities are incredible with heated lake pool, spa facilities, and beautiful landscape throughout. The staff could not have been more welcoming and eager to provide whatever we requested. Our room was lovely with views of the lake and manicured grounds. There is ample storage in the rooms, comfortable bedding and very nice bathroom features. I had the best pedicure of all time with a beautiful view of the lake during it. Fabulous! Our stay at Schloss Seefels was a highlight of our 3 week trip in Austria.

This type of expense, location and ambience should be accompanied by stellar service throughout.||Having read other guests superlatives I have been a little hesitant to share my experiences below. But they happened to- we’re not dealt with properly - and have left quite a sour taste.||We booked online 5 days before we arrived and chose the fully flexible option only to find we were already inside the cancellation period that is actually seven days prior to arrival. None of this is shared until you make the reservation.||Upon arrival our check in required us to lift all the cases into the hotel with no help.||The check in staff were so ‘busy’ telling us that there are no lakeside walks due to the Austrian authorities that they completely neglected to share with us the ‘Wörthersee travel card’ we should have been issued. This cost is €138 in costs we did not need to pay and the only comment made by reception when we realised the mistake was ‘sorry’.||Only one restaurant was open - again this was not clear until we arrived - which resulted in considerable readjustment. ||There is no doubt the hotel is beautiful and leaving the door onto the balcony open overnight was lovely.||But - for me - the hotel has some serious issues to deal with prior to peak season and - when a customer is charged €760 per night - they should be provided with what they paid for.

This is probably the best hotel I have ever stayed in. Everything was wonderful: attentive and polite service, incredibly beautiful design, and even though it was the holidays, there were not many people, so it was quiet and peaceful🍀Both breakfast and dinner were top-notch. The view from the window overlooking the lake, all the amenities, the spa, and the pool were all fantastic. However, one downside was that the TV in the room kept turning on by itself for some reason, which made it hard to sleep. We ended up having to unplug it from the socket at night. Later, the reception told us that it was a glitch with that specific TV in that particular room, but it really affected the quality of our sleep on the first night.

We really enjoyed our stay at the hotel. We booked an extended Christmas stay, including the Christmas arrangement offered by the hotel. The service was outstanding, the food was very good and the rooms were spacious with a nice balcony and view of the lake. We also enjoyed the spa where we received the best facial treatment ever. Overall I can highly recommend a stay in the hotel.

Unquestionably the best hotel I have ever stayed in. There will be bigger, more expensive etc hotels on the planet, but for relaxation, this is my pick. I think they have the most important criteria (for me), just right. The location right on the lake is beautiful, the decor is so tasteful, food was excellent, but their greatest asset is the staff. You can tell the training and customer service is of the highest standard. In my opinion staff can make or break a hotel and the management here have it just right. I genuinely can't wait to go back when I need a breather and a bit of pampering. From the welcome glass of champagne to the dip in the heated lake pool, love it !

Beautiful views and attentive service. While pricey, this is the prime location at the lake. On site restaurants serve high quality cooking all around. Property is impeccably maintained. Some interactions had a provincial feel, but that’s Austria for you…

Schloss Seefels exudes luxury in every aspect. Rooms are gorgeously appointed; staff exceedingly helpful; property meticulously maintained; it simply dies not get better than this! Breakfast exceptional and dinner delivcious - the daily menu, while pricey, offers a true culinary experience!

My wife and I have stayed at many hotels across the world and this is one at the top of our list. We will be back. From driving in all the way until we left this is a five star world class hotel. All the food was amazing, the rooms were spectacular and it is truly a gem in Austria. If you’re thinking about booking a hotel in Austria, this one should be your first pick. I showed some of my pictures to friends from home and they thought they were out of a travel magazine. It was so fun and the experience was none like I’ve ever had before. The lake water was so clear that you could drink out of it. Also, I highly recommend getting the tortellini at lunch.
