What a wonderful little apartment. The shower was great! The bedroom had plenty of room to move around the bed, and the windows had blackout shades. comfortable living room area if you’d like to sit someplace along with a dining table and a kitchen with all the conveniences.  I also appreciated the extras that you could purchase while staying there, like having a load of laundry, done, or purchasing tea or coffee to have in your room while staying there. They also provide a great breakfast each day.

Just 150 metres from Lake Wolfgang, Gästehaus Kloibergütl offers a private beach with deckchairs, free bicycle hire, and free WiFi in the entire property. The terrace and the balconies in all apartments overlook the lake.

The location is perfect, view from the room of the cows and the lake, a short walk to a private beach on the lake. The lake is clear and wasn't cold so we had a nice swim. The room is comfortable and the owner was very nice.

Located in Sankt Gilgen, within 29 km of Salzburg Central Station and 29 km of Mirabell Palace, Frühstückspension Seeblick provides accommodation with a garden as well as free private parking for guests who drive. The property features mountain and lake views, and is 30 km from Kapuzinerberg & Capuchin Monastery. Hohensalzburg Fortress is 31 km from the bed and breakfast and Mozarteum is 31 km away.

Hotel Seeblick has a wonderful view from all the rooms facing the lake. Unfortunately, it is located beside a very busy autoroute. We spend 9 nights in this hotel. Our room was on the second floor (no elevator) with a wraparound balcony with an excellent view of Wolfgang Lake. Our room was spacious, comfortable, with a king size bed, a desk, 2 chairs, a small fridge and a private bathroom with a tub and a shower, but no AC. The breakfast room is nicely appointed and the breakfast is served with fine china. They have a combination of self-serve with jams, juices, vegetables, cereals and butter. The coffee or tea, cold cuts, boiled eggs, cheeses and a variety of breads in a basket are serve individually by the owner. There are lots of private free parking spaces and a garden with chairs. The reception has a great variety of self-serve tourist information.
