Hotel Hollweger

We have been visiting the Hollweger over the last 8 years,and there are too many words to describe what a wonderful place it is.For the first time this year I was there on a solo trip at the start of April,usually I'm there in summer with my family.The family Hollweger and staff are incredibly warm and hospitable from the moment you arrive until departure.Everything about this hotel is first class from the facilities of the pool and spa features to the wonderful food.I would always recommend half board.It's an easy walk to the village,which is a journey we have done many times with wheelchairs,as is travelling to Salzburg on the bus,which of course stops at the hotel.The hotel is also across from the tourist information centre,although all the information you need is in the hotel for any kind of trip You require. My taxi is always booked by the hotel,and even though I always arrive later in the evening,due to 2 flights from Scotland,Mrs Hollweger is always there to welcome you on arrival..Austria at it's best. If you can,always book a room with a Lake view,you'll never be disappointed. I was there in April this year,recovering from Major surgery.I'm a swimmer,so going down at 8am with robe on from the room,plus your Hollweger swimming bag neatly filled with 2 swim towels..(being a swimmer you really appreciate this)then a lovely breakfast,the little bus,perhaps Salzburg for the day,or a further journey from there,back to Hollweger,view from your balcony,swim,evening dinner and relax..Yes,this really is a piece of heaven..

A very clean hotel with a very friendly and welcoming team of staff. Excellent food very well presented. The only reason for 4 rather than 5 stars is that its about a 15 minute walk to the private lakeside area. The lakeside area is really nice if a little small and the pool is excellent. Aircon would be beneficial but perhaps it was unusually hot during the time of our visit.

We stayed at Hollweger for 7 nights in early June. The village and resort was blissfully quiet and idyllic walking and cycling all around. We paid extra for a room with a view of the lake and were not disappointed, it was beautiful The hotel is traditional, quiet and comfortable. The swimming pool is excellent, a really good size, situated in tranquil gardens. There are terraces to eat outside when the weather permitted which it did. Breakfast was an extensive buffet. We had dinner on 2/3 occasions, it was good food and represented value for money given that Austria, generally, seems to us expensive. The hotel have a private lakeside boat hut/jetty where you can sunbath and swim in the lake which we did and the facilities are good. Overall the hotel is very comfortable and relaxing. Our only reservation was we sometimes struggled, (with the exception of one waiter who looked after us very well,) to get a drink before dinner and also to get attention at breakfast. Dinner service was from 6-8 (9 if you ate a la carte,) and when we were hoping to have a drink around 7.30 understandably the restaurant was busy and the bar area mainly unattended. This was a small issue against a very large number of good points which highly recommend this hotel .
