Received upgrade. Room with balcony. Easy free parking. Since we were the only ones having breakfast the staff prepared a platter with cheese, cold cuts, fruits , vegetables, hard boiled eggs and basket of various breads. Coffee, juices, cereals available as well. Walking distance to the lake and town.

We highly recommend this hotel! From check-in to check-out, all the staff were friendly and helpful. We’d like to especially thank Ms.Sherbet and Ms. Debora for their exceptional service. Of course, the male staff member was also very kind, though unfortunately we didn’t get his name. During our stay, the weather was quite hot and the room temperature rose a bit, but we requested a large fan and it was promptly provided. Thank you again for making our stay comfortable and pleasant!

Professionell nettes Personal. Essen an sich gut. Aber es ist für mir zu teuer. Die Zimmer sind teils veraltet und wenig liebevoll. Es gibt kein Wellnessangebot. Mir waren die Portionen zu klein. Vegetarisch ist im Vergleich zum Fleisch echt überteuert. Schlimmstes Manko. Man hört oft einen ratternden Ventilator (Lüfter der Küche?) im Zimmer. Stundenlang wie ein Motorrad. Auch die Toilettenspülung rinnt und die Tür zum Bad ist mit Mühe aufzumachen. Einfach nicht gut genug modernisiert. Wirkt teils eher wie ein Arbeiterwohnheim. Und dafür ist es eben zu teuer mit über 200 € pro Nacht fürs DZ. Sowas akzeptiert man eher, wenn es dann eben auch sehr günstig geht. Strandzugang haben wir selbst nach viel Suchen nicht gefunden und ist offenbar weit. Das sind unsere Erfahrungen und Meinungen.

휴양지를 감안하면 괜찮은 호텔(에어컨 없음 ㅠㅠ)

크거나 세련되지는 않은 호텔이고 약간은 시골적인 호텔이었습니다. 나름대로의 감각을 가진 객실 분위기였습니다. 방은 크지 않았고 휴양 지인것을 감안하면 가격은 납득할만한 정도 였습니다. 이상고온으로 날이 더운날에 갔었는데 아침부터 에어컨이 없어 힘들었습니다. 햇볕이 창가로부터 객실까지 내리쬐는 바람에 방안은 찜통이었습니다. 아침 식사이후로는 객실에 있기가 힘들어 할수 없이 외출을 해야했습니다. 대신 밤에는 선선하였구요. 아침 조식은 괜찮은 편이었습니다.

Perfect destination in St. Wolfgang

We absolutely loved our stay at Hotel Fosterhof! The hotel is so charming, our room was spacious and had a balcony, and was very clean. The morning breakfast selection was excellent, and the hotel had many offerings for guests like bike rentals, train and boat tickets, a private beach, and more. I would definitely return to Hotel Fosterhof!

깨끗하고 좋은 호텔인 것 같다. 다만 주차장이 조금 떨어져 있어 불편한 점은 있었으나, 짐을 내리거나 실을 때는 차를 가까이 가져올수 있어서 많이 불편하지는 않은 것 같다.
