Amazing experience. We were lucky to have joint rooms with kids and adults having their separate rooms which made aour stay super comfortable. Fantastic view on the room balcony and at the restaurant (inside and outside). Nice quiet private beach with very short walk to the beach club for lots of fun with kids. We recommend 100%.

The hotel was in a good location. The service staff, particularly the receptionist and restaurant staff were not friwndly or accommodating. We had purchased breakfast with our room reservation. When we checked we were told breakfast was available till 11 am. We came to the restaurant at 10.35 am were curtly told that breakfast was done, though we could have coffee. The staff the. Proceeded to charge us for even the coffee. The staff were available and there were very few guests around- we felt we could have been accommodated. The prior evening too we found the same staff to be not welcoming at dinner time. Did not leave us with good feeling and will likely choose a different hotel the next time we visit.

Great place to stay especially in summer.

Great accommodation, clean, friendly staff. Location is probably great for summer, a little out the way for winter. The ski boot room is far too get to inside.
Pillows are a little uncomfortable, but other than that everything is great.

Train tracks right next to hotel make sleeping difficult. First night, our room was extremely hot due to malfunctioning thermostat Obvious black mold on all window frames inside the room are a hazard with a toddler that touches everything. Rooms are tiny, not family friendly. Otherwise, hotel was nice. Good breakfast and nice sauna.

The hotel overlooks the famous Zell lake, with breath-taking views. The hotel is well-kept, and our rooms was cleaned every morning. Breakfast is good, but could use more varieties. Friendly staff. The city center is within 5 minutes walk. The hotel is closely located to most of the attractions around (by car). I would definitely recommend the Seevilla Hotel.

First of all, the hotel Is a bit difficult to get to as it requires that you drive down a pedestrian walk way. Then there was s not enough parking so we had to give our car keys at the reception desk. Our room was described as a superior room however there were very few windows that opened so we had the leave a side door wide open to allow fresh air and some coolness into the room. The This presented a security risk and would have allowed tons of water into the room in the event of rain. The balcony could be accessed by a 1 foot step up. The hotel is right next to the train tracks. So sleeping was hot and noisy. We requested a room change but we’re told repeatedly that that was not possible although we observed empty rooms and guests checking out. Fortunately, we were allowed to check out after 1 night even though the website said our 4 night reservation was non-refundable

Nice - but ensure u have the room u expect.

Our initial impression was not so good, but overall we did enjoy our stay here.

Their advertising is somewhat misleading. We had a deluxe room booked on the ground floor with lake access - what we found out later is 80% of the photos for this room type, are actually for a room of which they have just 1. The rest are in an older building and not nearly so nice. So I suggest confirming with the property exactly what room you will be getting given the price being paid.

The new rooms are in the building on your left when facing the property with the railway line behind you.

The railway line and the noise from the trains may be bothersome to some although no real issue for us.

The outlook onto the lake was excellent (so long as you are in the right room - see above).

I would have rated this property as poor value for money - except that on check-in you are given a card that gives free access to many attractions. In 1 day this card saved us ~EUR200. So when you allow for the value of the card, the value for money with this property is actually quite good.

I would recommend staying here so long as you confirm you have a room in the new wing of the property and so long as you would intend visiting the attractions that maximizes the value of the card provided.

Magic Place

I usually don't write any reviews, and in fact, I am a frequent user of hotels.com; but this stayed definitely deserve it.

My husband and I were traveling to different states of Austria but this place stold our hearts. When we arrived, we were welcome by the owner since she was under staffed that day, and she welcome us with a free dinner which they say was included. Little details as name tags in the dinner table with our names, and tips for our stayed make a great different. They also gave us free tickets to go to Kaprun that is one of the must see places in Zell am See. They saved us money.

When we arrived to the room, the magic increased, the view was marvelous. We just never used the blackout curtains, since this view was perfect for getting sleep and waking up.

We definitely had our best time in Austria here, we had plans to go to a day trip to Salzburg city and we canceled it; the hotel and kindness of it, made this magic place even better.

In summary, great view, nice room, good location, and kind service.

The photo is misleading. There is a small nice lawn area with a good view directly of the lake, but the location is terrible. What the photo does not show are the train tracks and mai road directly behind the hotel. There is a narrow bike path where the entrance is located. It is extremely difficult to park due to the narrow and limited spaces as well as the the constant flow of bikers. We booked our room over 10 months ago based on the photo. We pictured a lovely quiet location. The room we were given was terrible. It was dark with no ventilation. We complained to the front desk and were told we had one of the best rooms and they were fully booked. After much discussion, they suddenly had a suite available which was better. It was very hot while we there and we had to open all the windows. The trains went by every 15 minutes and it was extremely loud. The whiole room shook. We were told the trains did not run at night, but that was not true. We had a reservation for four nights. After two nights of no sleep, we demanded that they let us out of the reservation. The manager was extremely rude. We finally convinced her to give us a full refund. We moved down the street to the Salzbugerhof Hotel which was absolutely fabulous.

The lovely place

The hotel is perfect and the staff are great, welcoming and lovely. The only thing we didn’t like is that the rooms don’t have soundproof and the people next to us were very noisy. The balcony terrace outside are seems like they’re inside each other, not perfect for privacy. Otherwise everything was great

What i liked : The view of the lake from the room made the stay worthwhile.The reception staff was extremely polite and helpful.

What i didn't like: The property did not know that three adults would be checking in, so i am assuming that expedia does not know how do its job. Therefore the room was tight for the three of us.

The wait staff at the restaurant, clearly don't care for people of colour. That did upset us.

Don't be fooled by the pretty pictures

We were very disappointed by the poor, incompetent service at the hotel, starting with the Reception (rude and incompetent), and the cleaning staff who understood neither German nor English. And they were not even able to clean the room properly. We were present in the room during 2 cleaning services and glasses/mugs were just swiped with the unused towels from the bedroom, we had to ask for soap refill for both the shower and the sink (the level was so low no soap would come out even when pressing hard), the bottle of body lotion was already open on arrival, the staff was coming in to check the mini bar stock with very little curtesy and one occasion charged us for drinks despite us telling them nothing had been consumed. The light bulbs in the room were not functioning well on arrival, and the reception staff “got them to work” after hitting them several times. That only worked for a couple of hours. No follow up was made during our 1-week stay and we were not bothered to ask anymore.

The service staff in the restaurant did not know how to deliver services of a 4-star hotel, touching cutlery with bare hands, not cleaning table cloths, not replacing heavily broken/chipped glasses or mugs,staff picking food bare hands from the breakfast bar during service.
The breakfast was good, but the quality of the individual \"fresh\" products was sub-standard.

The best and only thing about this hotel is the location :the view from the rooms are stunning.

Way below expectations!

It was not a 4-star hotel in my opinion, they charged me for coming late cause their reception is not available after 10 pm! i contacted them several times to make sure they provide me a good room view for the honeymoon, they gave me the worst room in the hotel which was blocked by a tree and it was the only room blocked by the tree in the hotel! they changed it after an argument with the receptionist which almost had my day gone! and the new room was not that clean! there was hair in the toilet and the amenities are very poor! the staff is not friendly except one of them! you dont feel your welcomed in the hotel. i would never stay in this hotel! except for the view which were amazing

There is no free parking. Parking costs €20 per day, and the spaces are extremely narrow. I had to carry all my luggage myself, and I was surprised to find that I had to take the stairs to my room while carrying everything.

The staff’s attitude was disappointing, especially the restaurant manager. My booking included both breakfast and dinner, but when I checked out, I was told that all drinks had to be paid for separately.

Overall, it was a very disappointing experience and definitely not worth the amount I paid. I would rather pay a little extra and stay at the Grand Hotel, which is in the heart of the city center and is far better in every way.

Très confortable avec une vue exceptionnelle. La cuisine est bonne et personnel est sympathique. L'inconvénient est que les chambres ne sont pas climatisées ce qui oblige d'ouvrir les fenêtres et donc s'exposer au bruit du train qui passe juste devant l'établissement.
Cela reste une bonne adresse avec de nombreux services.

Im Ganzen ist die Anlage ok mit einem super Blick. Leider gibt es auch Minuspunkte: kein Lift für die komplette Anlage, so dass man die Koffer hoch schleppen muss.

Die wenig vorhandene sind sehr eng, so dass man ganz leicht eingeparkt wird( mir auch passiert).

Der Ausblick auf den See ist natürlich toll, vor allem vom Bett aus am Morgen ist einfach schön. Der Strandbereich mit direktem Zugang zum See und die mit inbegriffe Nutzung von Stand Up Paddle und Co ist super. Beim Frühstück haben wir einmal beim rausgehen Handschuhe gestehen, danach nicht mehr. Fürs Buffet wären Handschuhe oder mehr Desinfektionsspender schön gewesen. Ein Kellner beim Frühstück war echt klasse, sehr freundlich und aufmerksam! Auf dem Zimmer im Kleiderschrank hing ein Zettel, was das Zimmer enthalten sollte, zudem einen Wasserkocher/Kaffeemaschine. Nachdem wir bei der Rezeption nachgefragt hatten wurden wir nur wie ein Auto angeguckt, als ob wir nach sonst etwas gefragt hätten ... Hatten uns sehr auf den morgentlichen Kaffee im Bett mit Seeblick gefreut.
