Furian

Warm personnel, nice surroundings, comfy room. Highly recommended hotel!

This hotel is located a street or so off of the Lake with great viewsof both the lake and mountains. Some fog in the morning, but it clears by about 10am. Great walking in town, which is just down the street (walk left out the hotel) or if you go to the right you can hike up a hill towards rolling pastures and forested areas. Staff spoke English and was cheerful. The internet connection was free via our own laptop but it was not WIFI so that my Iphone email did not work there with the device that they gave us for our laptop. Looks like they do supply a computer for use in their lobby. Hot breakfast buffet was included with yogurt, cereals, breads, eggs, bacon and good coffee and juice. Great town this time of year, but I could imagine that it would be busy in the summer months with all the boating activities (motorboat rentals, scuba, ferry boat rides, scenic train rides etc.) The Lake looked clean and one could possibly swim in Sept, if you are used to colder waters. Very picturesque area and close to travel to Salzburg-- although that city was pretty touristy even though we travelled at the end of Sept after school at started. Only suggesed improvements are: either provide some form of English TV channels or at least a clockradio so that one could listen to some music at night and an orientation map for guests when they arrive. Did not know about the promanade till the morning we were leaving. Nice town and location. Great Country!

I loved the Furian and St. Wolfgang. The room was quite spacious, and the bathroom had a tub, which meant I could take a long soak after hiking. The desk gave me information about the bus and boat schedule. The breakfast was by far the best of my three-week trip--fantastic selection, high quality offerings and beautiful breakfast room. I arrived on a bus from Salzburg and had no problem walking right to the hotel after getting off the bus at the Schafberg busstop. The location is ideal: a couple blocks to the Schafberg mountain lift and, across the street from that, a boat dock for trips to other towns on the lake. The little town center is likewise a couple blocks away.
