Should have stayed elsewhere.

What a disappointment. The hotel is undergoing renovations. They did not mention this on the booking site. Roof top bar not available. Outside seating in the middle of construction. Condition of hotel appalling. The staff were lovely and room was clean but very tired dated with no appeal.

Property is well located. Staff are very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was good - fresh squeezed OJ. Hotel itself is a bit tired and would benefit greatly from new carpeting and paint in rooms and halls.

The hotel is very rundown. The blinds in the room didn’t work properly. The windows were dirty. The bathroom fixtures were old and stained. The rugs were stained, worn out and not vacuumed. The only good thing to say was that the evening receptionist was very friendly, and the breakfast was good. We cannot recommend this hotel and suggest staying elsewhere. We cannot recommend staying here

Poco piacevole l'odore di sigaretta in camera per un non-fumatore. Ottima la posizione per una visita a Lienz. Parcheggio nella piazza di fronte, a pagamento negli orari previsti dalla città.

Het is een oud hotel,Maarrrrr.kamers schoon en netjes.elke dag word er schoon gemaakt, en handoeken ververst..de eigenaren zijn het aan het renoveren, dus er nog werk te doen..vriendelijk en meedenkend personeel, de eigenaren zijn zeer behulpzaamen...ontbijt zeer goed,schoon en veel vers...als je een bakkie koffie wil overdag, even vragen, en je krijgt het🤗...echt voor ons een fijn en goed hotel...soms moet je even door sommige dingen heen kijken, wij zijn niet veeleisend🤗 ook de airco komt goed begreep ik, maar een raampje open en met een ventilator lukt het ook wel😎...Nogmaals dank voor de gastvrijheid, .

Wir haben eine Nacht im Hotel verbracht und uns insgesamt wohlgefühlt. Das Hotel ist zwar etwas in die Jahre gekommen, bietet aber eine angenehme Atmosphäre. Besonders positiv hervorheben möchten wir den kostenfreien Tiefgaragenparkplatz für Motorradfahrer – eine tolle Dienstleistung! Auch das Personal war durchweg sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Frühstücksbuffet war reichhaltig und bot eine gute Auswahl. Unser Zimmer war geräumig, aber leider ohne Klimaanlage. An warmen Tagen wäre ein Ventilator sehr hilfreich gewesen. Wir hatten ein Zimmer zum Johannesplatz, der abends gut besucht ist – entsprechend war es etwas lauter, was man bei der Lage aber einplanen kann. Trotz kleinerer Punkte hatten wir einen guten Aufenthalt und werden das Hotel bei einer nächsten Reise in der Region gerne wieder berücksichtigen.

Sauberes altes Hotel mitten im Zentrum

Wir haben eine Nacht auf unserer Fahrradtour im Hotel Sonne verbracht. Unser Zimmer war bis 22 Uhr ein bisschen laut von der Strassenmusik aber dann ruhig. Das ganze Hotel schien uns renovationsbedürftig aber die Zimmer waren grosszügig und sauber. Es hat alles funktioniert. Freundliches Personal an der Rezeption. Gute Parkmöglichkeit für die Fahrräder. Ideal gelegen mitten drin. Etliche Essensmöglichkeiten in der Nähe.
