Received upgrade. Room with balcony. Easy free parking. Since we were the only ones having breakfast the staff prepared a platter with cheese, cold cuts, fruits , vegetables, hard boiled eggs and basket of various breads. Coffee, juices, cereals available as well. Walking distance to the lake and town.

We highly recommend this hotel! From check-in to check-out, all the staff were friendly and helpful. Weโ€™d like to especially thank Ms.Sherbet and Ms. Debora for their exceptional service. Of course, the male staff member was also very kind, though unfortunately we didnโ€™t get his name. During our stay, the weather was quite hot and the room temperature rose a bit, but we requested a large fan and it was promptly provided. Thank you again for making our stay comfortable and pleasant!

Professionell nettes Personal. Essen an sich gut. Aber es ist fรผr mir zu teuer. Die Zimmer sind teils veraltet und wenig liebevoll. Es gibt kein Wellnessangebot. Mir waren die Portionen zu klein. Vegetarisch ist im Vergleich zum Fleisch echt รผberteuert. Schlimmstes Manko. Man hรถrt oft einen ratternden Ventilator (Lรผfter der Kรผche?) im Zimmer. Stundenlang wie ein Motorrad. Auch die Toilettenspรผlung rinnt und die Tรผr zum Bad ist mit Mรผhe aufzumachen. Einfach nicht gut genug modernisiert. Wirkt teils eher wie ein Arbeiterwohnheim. Und dafรผr ist es eben zu teuer mit รผber 200 โ‚ฌ pro Nacht fรผrs DZ. Sowas akzeptiert man eher, wenn es dann eben auch sehr gรผnstig geht. Strandzugang haben wir selbst nach viel Suchen nicht gefunden und ist offenbar weit. Das sind unsere Erfahrungen und Meinungen.

Perfect destination in St. Wolfgang

We absolutely loved our stay at Hotel Fosterhof! The hotel is so charming, our room was spacious and had a balcony, and was very clean. The morning breakfast selection was excellent, and the hotel had many offerings for guests like bike rentals, train and boat tickets, a private beach, and more. I would definitely return to Hotel Fosterhof!
