We stayed at the Tiny House, which was not only super cute but also very comfortable and had everything we needed for a perfect weekend. The place is amazing — nestled in the mountains and close to the lake, it felt like being in a fairy tale. The kitchen is fully equipped, so we could cook easily — they even provide herbs, oil, and salt. I would definitely come back to Chalet am Sonnenhang without a doubt!

Loved this older house. It has been updated very nice and has all that you would need for several days. Older house so creaky floors and steep stairs but has lots of charm. Large shower & bathroom. Bed was comfortable. Beautiful views of the mountains. Lisa was very helpful and easy to work with.

We loved our short stay in this chalet. Absolutely beautiful Mountain Views out by the back garden. The host Lisa was very sweet checking us in. The home is very convenient to Hallstatt but offers a serene stay a few miles away from the touristy area. Also, it was nice to have parking on premises. Lisa also left us farm fresh eggs for breakfast. I’d highly recommend a stay here.

Calming and Charming

Our stay in Obertraum was the highlight of our trip to Austria. We walked in the neighboring valley, hung out in the hammocks and felt right at home with all the nature surrounding the warm and cozy farm style home. A short walk to the small ferry took us to must see neighboring sights. We were blessed by our stay! Steve and Cheryl

Wow. We stayed for one night outside of Hallstatt. What a beautiful apartment. Loved the espresso machine available and the freshest farm eggs you could ask for. It slept three of us well. We walked into Hallstatt (3.5 miles). It was a lovely and very easy walk to get to Hallstatt. But Obertraun had its own charm. Would definitely recommend in all aspects!!

Very clean and relaxing place. About 5 miles from Hallstatt which is very convenient by bus, car or by boat. The host is very nice and friendly and very accommodating.’she offer to let us use their bikes to ride around. You can walk around the property which has sheep and chickens.

A peaceful retreat

After a long drive from Italy this was a wonderful place to call home. A lovely restaurant within walking distance, a grocery store, and a walk to the pier for the boat to Hallstatt. If a boat ride of 30 minutes does not suit you, a 10 minute taxi ride will. A small farm experience in a lovingly restored house...at the end of the day to come home to the quiet and security of Obertraun was wonderful. Lisa and Gabby could not have been more helpful or more kind to us during our stay. I highly recommend.

A slice of heaven!!

The Chalet is a13 minute walk from the Obertraun train station. It is an 8 minute walk to the bus to Hallstatt. Obertraun is a picturesque, peaceful village away from the crowds of Hallstatt. It has some 700 residents. There is a supermarket but restaurants are limited. The property is beautiful ... surrounded by mountains. It is impeccably maintained. The apartment was adorable and well outfitted. The owner provided water, orange juice, cofee and tea. She was also very helpful with directions and recommendations. The bed was comfortable, kitchen well equipped and bathroom spacious. I couldn't ask for nothing more! I enjoyed waking up and seeing the sheep graze!! I would highly recommend this Chalet!!
