Pretty little town on the lake, with a couple of excellent restaurants nearby serving local cuisine mostly. Lots to see, lovely walks, hikes and drives. One glaring problem they need to address ASAP. Gmunden lacks a decent 4/5 star hotel. There are a couple which are adequate 3 stars.

Quaint lake town. Highly recommend a short overnight trip. Enjoy dinner at Hackall restaurant. Amazing pizza. But make reservations. Take an electric boat for an affordable lake experience. Apartment accommodations were great

Very nice city with a breathtaking view with a castle on the lake and high hills covered in clouds.
The lake is crystal clear, so perfect for swimming, or sailing.
There are ferrys that can take you to other parts of the lake.
Just an absolutely gorgeous and clean city with very welcoming people.
Many art galleries and all sorts of exhibitions.
We also reccomend Hotel Zum Goldenen Hirschen in the city centre with a luxury design and very nice staff.

Amazing lake town, with a special sea-lake architecture.
Amazing lake town, with a special sea-lake architecture. Small but charming and the locals are very friendly.
The town offers many activities such as: an electric boat ride on the lake, a cable car that leads to the mountain above the lake, from where there is a fantastic view of the glaciers and the Alps.

The city is boring, it was a disappointing experience.

The Esplanade Hotel in the City Center is a disaster (including a pizzeria there) - go to the Esplanade Hotel in Zagreb (Croatia) and see what the service and luxury is. We left the day before, this is a city of old people….
This hotel is really stunning. It’s so modern and chic with beautiful fixtures and finishes. The room we were in was large with a good sized walk out terrace. The shower and tub in the room were great, it was liking being at a spa! The staff was always working to keep the facilities in pristine condition. The location was just perfect. Centrally located. Only a few minutes walk from anywhere you’d want to be. We would definitely recommend. Especially in the cooler months.
The staff are very welcoming and helpful. The property is exceptionally clean and rooms are to a high standard. The breakfast is varied and well presented. I would definitely recommend this hotel, it was quiet and only a ten minute walk to the beautiful town of Gmunden. This is a family run hotel and the owners work there along with an exceptional team of staff, who organised take away food for us, taxis and train schedules to visit other places in Austria.
It was a joy to stay where the staff felt genuine friendly, welcoming and helpful. It has only been open for four weeks but their enthusiasm was infectious. The hotel is centrally located and very quiet, the beds comfortable and the rooms clean, light and airy. The food is great too. We didn’t have a problem parking - there is also another car park a short distance away but room to unload and check-in if you arrive late.
The apartment was a great spot for three of us travelers who were in town for a friend’s wedding. The common area offered so much space for sleeping on the pullout couch and congregating during breakfasts. Everything was spotless, the apartment is in a great location near the water, and accessing the unit was a breeze. Thanks for a a great stay in Gmunden!
We loved having lots of space after staying in hotels. We enjoyed using the outdoor grill and well-equipped kitchen. Love the way the owners fixed up this former tavern! It is unique and very tastefully decorated. The lake and restaurants are within walking distance. The sauna was a nice treat at the end of each day.
It’s a good hotel with excellent location, especially of the lake view which make the stay very much enjoying. The staffs are very friendly and helpful. One other thing that make me feel very comfortable is the closeness between the room and the car parking. It was an excellent comfort combination.
This is an incredible hotel with incredible the staff. They helped us arrange transportation from the train station, warmly received us, provided us with a beautiful room, had amazing bar service, and the breakfast was incredible as well. I can’t wait to go back!
The location is super, the staff was very friendly and helpful.. I want to Thank Laura for her hospitality and for her daily help answering all our questions regarding our stay in Gmunden.. thanks a million Laura. I totally recommend this beautiful hotel.
what an excellent find. ALFRED met us on arrival and made us welcome and explained the workings of everything. The things that are included in this apartment is unbelievable. The cleanliness is far better than most 5 star hotels, Well done.
Old but charming building right in the middle of Gmunden and near the splendid lake Traunsee. Nice restaurant and very good breakfast. People running this hotel ar really devoted to their guests.
The location is great, very easy to get around and very near the tram station. I liked the historical part of the hotel, that a lot of kings and queens have been guest there.
The position in Gmunden was perfect and the staff were attentive and friendly. The apartment had recently been renovated to a good standard. The lift made life a lot easier
