Portschach am Wörthersee hotellia

Plussat: Beautiful conservative hotel, in a good sense of the word. Wonderful views. Very tasty food.

Miinukset: Unfortunately there is no place to walk around the hotel.

Plussat: Wonderful location next to Worthsee. Staff was very nice and we had a wonderful meal included in the price. Great stay all around!

Miinukset: The beds are a bit dated, could use and update!

Plussat: The hotel complex offers everything you could expect from an accommodation of this high range- amazing location and views, very careful and pleasant team and service, refined cuisine and liquors in a charming restaurant and bar. Overall, a very familiar and earthy atmosphere, which promotes the feeling of arriving in a real holiday home rather than in an impersonal hotel. Very little details I was personally missing, but nothing much- maybe a beach bag or basket (as I was carrying several items like magazines, keys, bathing suit, etc. in a bundle to the SPA area, not having a bag of my own) and an in-room coffee machine, to be able to enjoy a first morning coffee in bathrobe, with the amazing balcony views, before going to the official breakfast buffet. Highly recommendable for romantic escapes, SPA trips or just some brainwashing getaway.

Plussat: Everithing Perfect

Plussat: I like everything and already recommended Seefels !!!

Miinukset: There was nothing in this sense.

Plussat: Fabulous large and luxurious rooms. 5 star plus spa. 5 star plus resto and breakfast

Plussat: Delightful very small establishment, only 11 rooms. So comfortable and emaculate , it is more like a large home with lots of personality. The location was lovely, overlooking small lake. Close to a delightful small beach town with good restaurants.

Miinukset: Far from klagerfurt. Our GPS would not put in the correct address.

Plussat: The property and rooms are very nice and comfortable, but the highlight for me was the owners. They were very friendly and helpful, gave us some good recommendations for dinner and travels the following day. The room and bed were very comfortable, they had a good breakfast the next morning. The room had nice views out the windows. The deer ranch next door was interesting too.

Miinukset: We had 2 large suitcases, packing them upstairs was not easy.

Plussat: Clean room, friendly personell, good breakfast

Plussat: Our stay at Das Landhaus was lovely. Friendly staff, clean rooms, immaculate pool and that ‘extra bit’, which for us (and others staying for the IronMan) was laying on a 4am breakfast so we all left fuelled for a long day.

Plussat: Everything was perfect

Miinukset: -

Plussat: clean, great quality of rooms, beautiful scenery

Miinukset: scarce public transport

Plussat: Friendly staff, nice and clean rooms, outdoor pool in the garden, and a private beach house at Wörthersee.

Plussat: Relaxed environment, great breakfast.

Plussat: The location of the hotel is perfect. The breakfast is factastic. Thanks a lot to the host and hostess for their hospitality. Perfectly clean. You'll get the pass to the nice beach and you can enjoy your stay at this place immensely. Main railway station is 5 minutes walk from the hotel, it's very convenient. Just across the street there's Bäckerei Wienerroither with fresh pastry etc., there's a lot of restaurants and cafes around. Billa is 10 minutes walk up Hauptstrasse.

Miinukset: None

Plussat: bio, presentation

Miinukset: the room was cold

Plussat: the room I stayed was very cozy. Also the breakfast was really nice!

Miinukset: N/A

Plussat: Breakfast was one of the best we ever had and host was friendly. There is a short walk to the lake promenade from this guesthouse. There are also good restaurants nearby. Room was spacious, clean and comfortable. I would visit again if in the area.

Plussat: The breakfast was extremely rich and fresh; the position is relatively close to the lake; the garden is large and has many options for leisure

Miinukset: Air conditioning in the room would have been welcome

Plussat: A high amout of breakfast prepared by order from menu and many bio and healhy optional food. Very good restaurant and bakery in the neighbourhood. The beach is only for a short walking and Lapeiner provides free entry there. The railway station is also very close to the guesthouse.

Plussat: The breakfast was excellent and varied, with a buffet and cooked options. The room was large and comfortable and the hotel within easy walking distance of the lakeside. Entrance to a place to swim in the lake was included! The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful.

Miinukset: The room lacked air conditioning. There was a ceiling fan, so it wasn't too hot to sleep, but warmer than I would have liked.

Plussat: Clean, well located, friendly owners!

Plussat: Breakfast, Dinner, Location directly on sea promenade, free parking, you will feel like in 60's or 70's luxury hotel - it's renovated but the design looks really like from the good old times, swimming pool with view on the sea

Miinukset: The air from the A/C in the room is very dry (we stayed in October).

Plussat: What didn't I like? Everything was good. The staff were amazing - professional, very patient and friendly. No looking down on guests no matter the guests' backgrounds. Everywhere spotlessly clean. Serene atmosphere. Reasonably priced roomservice. Several payment modes accepted.

Miinukset: That I couldn't stay longer.

Plussat: The location of the property is amazing with a lake view, mountains and gardens.

Miinukset: Old furniture and amenities

Plussat: The hotel located in lovely place with beautiful scenery and excellent service) Breakfast is very rich even honeycomb is there, fruits, flakes, cereals, eggs, cheese, sausages... all of minimum of 4-5 kind.

Miinukset: Elevators parts are handwritten (near buttons).

Plussat: Excellent location with beautiful surroundings. Great service, very friendly staff.

Miinukset: The building is not the newest and so are the rooms if you take a “standard room”.

Plussat: Nice location, right in the middle of the city and yet discreet enough. Amazing views from the rooms from the 6th floor refurbished rooms.Peaceful location - good for gamilies

Miinukset: I felt some of the hotel reception staff did not know much about the local area or not willing to share it with us

Plussat: We had a very good check-in experience when you feel like you came back home after a long trip. Despite the lake is a little distanced from the place we still had a view on the lake and we could enjoy the sunset from our balcony. The room was nice and clean, not too small. The air is so fresh that you are trying to breath deeply than usual. We liked the breakfast as well.

Plussat: Lake view, garden / terrace

Miinukset: Evening menu limited; given an inferior room on arrival albeit at lower rate

Plussat: Nice view, great breakfast.

Miinukset: It would have been nice to have shampoo in the shower, but also maybe this is not standard in Europe (also wastes less plastic).

Plussat: Fantastic and very comfortable hotel! Great rooms, great bathrooms, great views, fantastic host ! all good! cant wait to return!

Miinukset: All good

Plussat: Everything, very nice and kind owner, friendly and clean rooms, which was very nice.

Miinukset: At the evening open bar at least to 10pm.

Plussat: Very clean. Room tastefully updated.

Miinukset: The towels were so stiff and hard it felt like you were sanding your body when you dried off with them.

Plussat: Big well-equipped apartment, clean, comfortable beds and lots to choose from at breakfast.

Plussat: Everything was just amazing, awesome view from balcony, nice staff, very clean and modern rooms. 10+ Greetings !

Plussat: Clean and quiet, very good breakfast and excellent coffee! Very kind host and staff!

Plussat: Hyvä hinta/laatu suhde. Kaunis ympäristö ja puutarha. Koiraystävällinen. Kiva, että paikassa tarjottiin illallinen,

Miinukset: Liikenteen melu oli kova myös yöllä. Naapuri tupakoi parvekkeella yöllä ja savu tuli avoimesta ikkunasta huoneeseemme. Miksi majapaikka ei ole savuton?

Plussat: - great location - great breakfast and dinner - well equipped wellness department - nice rooms

Miinukset: - only 1 working sauna , finn sauna was closed all the week - lake view room had a look to the lake, but couldnt see it due to the little forest in front of my balcony - english language is not a strengthess of the restaurant staff

Plussat: Beautiful hotel with friendly staff. Nice and clean pool and spa. Don’t miss an excelent dinner.

Miinukset: Avoid forest view rooms, because there is a motorway near which is quite noisy.

Miinukset: We had already messaged to say we would be late arriving and had a PIN code to get in as there is not 24 hour reception (?????). Due to an accident on the road down from Linz we eventually arrived about 04.45 to find the PIN code didn't work. We had to snooze in the car and when the cleaning staff arrived we still had to wait in the car until 06.30 when the receptionist arrived. Not at all what we expected for the money we paid; we chose it as it was close to Moosburg for the Saturday evening and we decided to push the boat out a bit and go for some luxury. As it was it left us so drained we didn't get around to enjoying any of the facilities there that we had paid for. The information was in German and we felt like the poor relations the whole time.

Plussat: The staff at Balance are amazing. Very caring and helpful! All of them were concerned about our stay and did everything they could to make it excellent! They were happy to accommodate our vegan diet. Breakfast was fantastic with lots of fresh fruit and veggies. They also had almond and soy milk on hand for cappuccino! Simply amazing staff! We will be back!

Plussat: They had bikes we could use, the pool/ gym areas were ok. We asked for an upgrade which they accommodated us with. This was a bigger room with better views and a better air conditioning unit.

Miinukset: Initially we were in a small room where the view was blocked by trees and the carpark.

Plussat: I highly recommend Balance Hotel, if you want to visit Woerther See. It's modern, rooms have air conditioning, beds are comfortable, pool and saunas area are very nice, restaurant is above all expectations. The lake view from the terrace is wonderful. Stuff is very friendly and helpful.The hotel has a big parking lot.

Plussat: Kind staff, great chef! The room was pleasunt and comfortable: double bad and a sofa with a table in the corner if you wish to work or something. Well located, in the center of the lake, between Klagenfurt, Villach and the Lake Ossiach. I rided the bike all the time during my stay, if you wish too, there are great opporunitis with high elevations throught the mountains and forests, but you can avoid climbing as well with alternate routes. After an exhausting ride you can chill out in the well equipped wellness department: 3 saunas and a steam room along with a chill room and an indoor+outdoor pool with a view to the lake.

Miinukset: The hotel is located very near to the highway, it can disturb some people, especially in the summer if you prefer to sleep with open balcony doors. Besides that its not a cheap hotel, but worth the price!

Plussat: Breakfast was very good at the hotel - they also accommodated an early breakfast for me on one of the days. Location was convenient - right off the autobahn and an easy drive to Klagenfurt.

Miinukset: There was some traffic noise at night.

Plussat: The Room was clean and fine. However communication was not easy with the workers, everything was good prepared.

Miinukset: The communication wasn`t easy with the accomodation. They didn`t reply any questions per email before our travel. Furthermore they mentioned first that our room will be at another place when we arrived.

Plussat: Room big enough, very friendly young servant at restaurant. No problem with early breakfast.

Miinukset: Very poor cleannlines of the floor, but every day towel change. Breakfast every day exactly the same, choice of bread, fruit, cheese just averege... Not feel being welcomed. I read that hosts were very friendly - I didn t feel it, because the boss was rather calm. Well, I am not going to live there so it was ok. Guests that prefer quiet places should avoid this place, it stands on rather busy street.

Plussat: Location was perfect. Parking excellent. Room was good quality.

Miinukset: Pillows were awful, practically non existent. Had to fold them over 2 or 3 times just to make them useable. No WiFi in the apartments.

Plussat: 1.) Amazing hosts. They were extra kind, gave us directions and even an extra coupon for the sightseeing tower. 2.) Unique atmosphere. 3.) Perfect route for a round-trip hiking day. 4.) Super clean and rooms that are charming.

Miinukset: The 'Buschenschank' next to place made us extra fat ;) Was tasty nevertheless!

Plussat: The staff the view the location the food

Miinukset: Parking not enough

Plussat: Very easy to get to. The hotel very clean, beautiful beach bar and well maintained beach front. Very close to local restaurants, on the beach. Friendly service.

Miinukset: I’m sorry to say, although the staff was very helpful and polite, we felt there was not value for money. The room was extremely overpriced although it was superior double with balcony to the lake, it was very small, we felt cramped in it, breakfast was nothing special ( some guest houses I have stayed in ski regions across Austria offer much more), some of the furniture in the room looked very dated. No fridge and no air conditioning. Actually we are rather disappointed. € 300 per night cannot be justified. We stayed in Kempinski in the past, paid little above €300 per night for two people inc breakfast and that was worth it. This hotel certainly not.

Plussat: Wonderful place right on the bank of the lake, very friendly staff and delicious food in hotel’s restaurant

Plussat: Staff affable and helpful. Veranda and moving door good. Seating comfortable.

Miinukset: No fridge, no a/c, no kettle etc. Food very similar from day to day. Expensive for it actually is.

Plussat: Location with the touch of the traditional Villa at the green coast of Lake. Peace and tranquilty.

Plussat: Staff was really super, the view astonishing

Plussat: Perfect location right on the shore of the lake Very good cuisine

Miinukset: Some of the staff is not really meeting the hotel standards Incredibly poor internet connection (very low speed and extremely poor connection) First time when in Austria I had to beg for cold drinks!

Plussat: total relaxation atmosphere. the villa is on the lakeshore, the room had a beautifull view, the staff was very helpfull, very good for a relaxed and laid-back vacation

Plussat: The location of this hotel is fantastic, by the lake Wörthersee. You can enter the water directly (and it is not cold), or with a boat or with buoys. They even have some to lend. Breakfast is definitely a plus, it is delicious. Pet and kid friendly.

Miinukset: The rooms lack ventilators (I am not even talking about ACs)... we asked for one in reception, but the reply was not very hopeful. I know the heat of summer just lasts a few weeks, but that is exactly why most people go to the lake in the first place. Restaurant has limited functionalities in the evening.

Plussat: this is a jewel !!!! only 20mins from airport by car using sat nav. only 10mins from centre of klagenfurt , a very sizable city and great shops and restaurants. thishotel sits along side the lake it is more a 5 star than 4 , the rooms are spacious and very very clean, at xmas the market is superb !! give this hotel a try . you will love it !!!!

Miinukset: tv could do with more english channels

Plussat: Excellent location on the waterfront, privacy, tranquility; the owners of the hotel are very friendly and communicate with every guest, they really care about the spirit and environment, create true family atmosphere.

Miinukset: lack of air conditioning in the rooms (though due to the weather conditions it was not hot during our stay)

Plussat: The place looks almost like the paradise when it is sunshine. A swimming in the Wörthersee is fine. It is possible to take an electric boat to have a trip along the lake. There are some very interesting castles and ruins around the Wörthersee. Not far from it you may go to the mountains and to look to a large part of Karinthia from 1500 meters.

Miinukset: Breakfast is a good one, but the waiters don't offer an omelett or a fried eggs and it is not anywhere an information that it is possible to order. The minibar in our room was not refilled during the whole week. There was no information about a laundry service in the room.

Plussat: The breakfast was very good, location with the hotel beach and own pier indeed gorgeous. Staff at the reception was very friendly, also gave us a late check-out free, as we had only checked in at 3 am; staff at breakfast less friendly, seemed stressed and more interested in getting us out.

Miinukset: Room was regular for this price, e.g. no minibar. For a hotel of this level I would expect that a "large double-bed" is really "a large double-bed", NOT just two single-beds put side by side (if they do so, they should at least fix them together!) But unfortunately the lack of understanding for king-size-beds is widespread all over Europe. Longer breakfast time (11.00) on weekends would be appreciated for such a typical holiday resort; breakfast staff was extremely punctual to withdraw the buffet...

Plussat: Nice and clean room, great pillows and linen. Good breakfast, including sparkling wine and great selection of cheese.

Miinukset: Spa is rather simple. Although big, it mainly consists of rest areas

Plussat: well appointed rooms, good gym, great views, right on the lake, good breakfast buffet, great A/C, friendly staff

Miinukset: only one out of 2 elevators working, poor internet, lots of small children, expensive

Plussat: the room was cosy, the balcony nice, tge Badehaus cosy, the saunas nice, swimmig areas are good, uncomplicated use, not too crowded given the size of the hotel. Good parking slots, one free, one paid, direct access from parking house to rooms. But its also a famous hotel, so I expected a little standard. Staff was helpful in the reception.

Miinukset: the strange opening hours of the diverse bars/cafes/restaurants and the tratment by the waiters if one didn t know all their rules by heart what one was allowed to do and when. The Badehaus which is the most interesting structure here was complicated with rules: certain areas are meant only for sitting in bathing clothes and eat and drink allowed from 12.00 to 17.00. Then its closed for one hour. After 18.00 to 21,00 its open again, but one can only eat with reservation (drinks only allowed), certain areas only for food, certain only for drink (although during day one could eat there as well). So once I ww wanted to eat there after 18.00, we were not served. waiter gave fuzzy information (he did not clearly deny neither affirm that we could order from the menu, so he brought the menu, but later because we were insistent and asking again whether one can eat, he sent the lead waiter to tell us that there is no capacity to be served since we had no reservation). The lead waiter was more friendly than the otger one, but it was still very confusimg. The main hotel restaurant was open until later 20.30 or ? But since I ve already been reprimanded twice for either not sitting in the right place or not being able to eat, etc... I was afraid of having another unpleasant interaction with them and being sent away, so finally avoided to eat there at all and went somewhere else. The breakfast is only until 10.30, which I find old fashioned for a starred hotel with this big size and name. some streamlining or better explanations of opening hours, sitting and menu rules would be wanted. In the main lobby bar you cannot get drinks or coffee until 15.00. In a hotel like this, I would have thought that everything is available everywhere at all times. The elevators are a bit slow and always waiting time!!

Plussat: Perfect location, friendly staff, pet friendly

Miinukset: Smoking in balcony is allowed, it smells really bad when the windows are open.

Plussat: I only spent one night on the way home. Well located, nice, clean room. The buffet breakfast selection is excellent, kind and helpful staff.

Miinukset: It's overpriced. After check out I had to pay to stay on the beach until afternoon. The bed was uncomfortably soft. In the evening the live music was very disturbing and loud.

Plussat: The main attraction about this hotel, at least in summer, is a big lawn (let us not call it park, though) and a beach with soft entrance to water, ideal for small kids and non-swimmers. It is about the only hotel which has this. The bathhouse pavillion (with a restaurant and a sumptuous spa) is nicely restaured, food there is gourmet level. The breakfast in the main bulding is memorable, feels more like a degustation of local bio products.

Miinukset: The hotel itself, on the other hand, lacks architectural charm and has rather a business feel. The halfboard (judging by the menu) is a buffet of usual suspects of standart resort cuisine, not so interesting.

Plussat: Comfortable beds, little balcony, big room

Miinukset: Wifi didn’t work, staff wasn’t particularly friendly or helpful, service not up to 4-star-standards

Plussat: Beautiful location by the lake, a very special beach with a flat entrance to the water (good for kids), green and peaceful. The train station is 2 min walking distance away, which is very convenient for non-car travelers. We’ll definitely be back!

Miinukset: The room facilities are nothing special, but decent and clean. A bit of a weird table allocation - people booking an HB accommodation get the best tables vs we’ve got seated somewhere on the way.

Plussat: The hotel is at the lake with own beach. There were very few kids, the majority of guests belong to the 50+ age category. Breakfast was very rich and meals were good. It was nice to have lunch and dinner on the terrace of the hotel with a gorgeous view of the lake and hills.

Plussat: Excellent private beach and jetties for swimming. All rooms have good balcony overlooking lake. Spacious room

Plussat: Location, general ambience, lake frontage and views from balcony

Miinukset: No air conditioning

Plussat: Need to improve

Plussat: The location was good and by the lake. Breakfast was excellent.

Miinukset: Better instructions could have been provided regarding the breakfast o stead of saying just that it was unlimited. A kettle in the bedroom would have been a plus. Also the pictures provided in their page do not represent reality but overproduced.

Plussat: The view is amazing. The room was great for an Ibis - we are used to more of a budget setup in Australia.

Miinukset: Odd that it's part of the rest station itself but not really a detraction. No fridge or tea and coffee making facility.

Plussat: Great location, wonderful view.

Plussat: Good view

Miinukset: Very loud. The railroad is very near.

Plussat: The view

Plussat: Very good location. Private secluded beach, however be prepared to use a few of steps to get there. Rich breakfast served on a terrace with wonderful view of the lake. Very friendly service both on reception and in beach bar/breakfast.

Miinukset: Room (garden view) was a bit small for the price. Number of steps to reach the beach can be a problem for people with mobility issues and with smaller children. For those I would recommend different hotel.

Plussat: We enjoyed a lovely breakfast on a beautiful terrace overlooking the lake.

Miinukset: unfortunately the weather was very warm and there was no air conditioning in the room.

Plussat: We really enjoyed our stay at the hotel, the breakfast and the view. Also, the location is very good with a private spot at the lake.

Miinukset: There is no a/c which means in summer you have to keep the windows open at night... which means insects in the room, if you have your lights on (no fly screens), that was quite annoying. Also, the passing trains (esp at night) are very loud but you are provided ear plugs.

Plussat: Panoramic view from hotel room & restaurant is just fantastic. Especially morning coffee was one of the best I’ve ever had. Front desk staffs are really kind and helpful. Good impression.

Miinukset: Room condition is ok, but amenities in bath room are poor. My hairs were like broom.(no hair conditioner) Railways are right front of the hotel, If you are sensitive person especially when sleeping, then you must have earplug or you’d better to be too tired. Actually it was nothing problem for me because I couldn’t hear it at all right after I fell asleep! :D

Plussat: I liked the Sky bar, we enjoyed the hotel’s own beach . Breakfast was excellent.

Miinukset: I missed the beach towels only.

Plussat: The views across The Worthersee were amazing. The swimming pool area was brilliant.

Miinukset: Railway line at the rear of the hotel meant sleepless nights as windows required to be left open as no air conditioning present. Not sure where 4*rating came from as no dining facilities available other than a mediocre breakfast.
