Hotels near Edelschwortn, Villach

The positives: room was clean, breakfast is excellent, staff is friendly, free WIFI, nice outdoor seating area. The negatives: horrible location right on a busy highway that creates noise and bad air quality. Staff is not well trained - they sent us to a lunch restaurant that is only open for dinner (good concierge would check online first). The website information is inaccurate. One is supposed to get a welcome drink at the bar - but this is not available. Worse, the website says the front desk is staffed until 11 but when we checked in we were told they would be shutting down at 10. Our colleagues had a car breakdown issue and the front desk blithely informed us that we would have to stay awake and let our colleagues in whenever they arrived. Really? The paying guests have to take over the front desk duties? Especially for a hotel on a highway that caters to business travelers, there needs to be a Plan B for those who unexpectedly arrive late.

Il Ortners Eschenhof è un bellissimo hotel in centro al paese di Bad Kleinkircheim. Fin dall'entrata si assapora l'amore per la natura, nelle piccole e grandi cose che si notano in tutto l'hotel. Abbiamo soggiornato per una settimana, due adulti, nostra figlia e il nostro cagnolino Rocky. Come dico sempre chi ama gli animali... ha una marcia in più! In tutto l'hotel sono presenti asciugamani dedicati ai nostri amici a 4 zampe con cui asciugare le zampine bagnate e sporche, un tocco di gentilezza mai visto altrove, tanti complimenti. L'hotel non è solo pet-firendly ma anche eco-friendly, infatti i saponi naturali per la doccia e la vasca da bagno, i pannelli fotovoltaici, ed altri piccoli indizzi fanno di questo hotel un grande esempio di civiltà. Le stanze sono spaziose, con tantissimi spazi per il guardaroba, pavimento a parquet, ampio bagno con vasca e doccia, vano separato per il wc. Noi abbiamo avuto la fortuna di prendere una delle ultime stanze a piano terra con giardino, poco utile in inverno, ma sicuramente spettacolare in estate. Letto per nostra figlia nella stessa stanza.... forse poca privacy, ma una stanza molto confortevole. In stanza, per chi ha l'amico a 4 zampe al seguito, viene fornito un kit di ciotole e tappettino. L'area benessere è organizzata con due piscine, una interna ed una esterna, entrambe riscaldate, un bagno turco, sauna e cabina infrarossi. Per gli amanti dei massaggi, è a disposizione un ampio spazio dove rilassarsi dopo una giornata di fatiche.... non posso dare opinioni perchè non ne ho usufruito. Le piste da sci sono a 50m dall'hotel, raggiungibili con scarponi ai piedi, e in 10 minuti a piedi si è in centro al paese. Per chi non scia, esistono tantissimi percorsi di trekking in mezzo alla splendida Austria, forse sono di parte ma è davvero uno stato incredibile. La pensione 3/4 è una delle mie formule preferite, una ampia colazione, una merenda per chiudere un bucanino con tisane e spuntini, e una bella cena. Le bevande, compresa l'acqua, sono tutte a pagamento, per cui sappiatelo che al mattino troverete lo scontrino da firmare... e la mancia ( in Austria è gradita ). Cosa non mi è piaciuto.... forse l'unica cosa è l'acqua a cena...

Gutes Hotel mit super Restaurant. Tiefgaragenparkplätze für 15€ pro Nacht ( die Geräumigkeit der Garage ist nicht großzügig, aber vollkommen OK - auch mit SUV). Wir hatten ein Superior Zimmer (mit separatem WC). Zimmer sehr sauber. Da wir zu Dritt waren, war es etwas eng. Großer Balkon. Wenn man die Fenster geschlossen hält ist der abendliche Velden-Zentrum Lärm kein Problem. Tolles Frühstück mit viel Auswahl. Abends sehr gutes Essen im Restaurant. Personal freundlich. Badeplatz bei der Villa Bulfon ist ca. 5 Gehminuten entfernt, dafür der Schönste in ganz Velden.

Staff at the hotel are super friendly and helpful. The rooms are very nice: Cosy soft bed, large balcony and really cool bathroom with very modern shower. I also enjoyed the breakfast buffet. There is food for every taste and, very important to me, the coffee is awesome. The location of the hotel is awesome, too: Right next door to the town‘s spa and the Kaiserburgbahn, the gondola that‘ll take you to the summit of Wöllaner Nock, the starting point of various great hiking tours.

I booked the hotel because a familiar told me - it is the best wellness hotel in Austria. I can now say, unfortunately it is not and I was already in some wellness hotels. The location of the hotel is super 👍 but in winter at wellness I don't think this is so important. I can imagine that the location is more important in summer. The food was very good and the staff very friendly. The massage was super and the staff there were also very friendly and premature. However, it was too cold for me in the bedroom and in most rooms. The bedroom was clean and the bed comfortable. The wellness area could be clearly renewed and is expandable. Unfortunately there is not really where very hot water - the outdoot pool was too cold for me. And what clearly misses are whirpools and really quiet rest rooms where the atmosphere fits. In the rest rooms are lifting chairs everywhere - this could be changed to mattresses in niches or similar ... Whether'd be much more cozy 👌. I missed sauna excitements by staff and I think that would also enjoy all the other guests very much. Sauna landscape is great and also clearly large enough. A sauna bar would be another idea you could consider ... Because for drinks and similar things you always have to go to the seahouse/restaurant. This passage is clearly too cold in the bathroom in the winter. Retroactively, I can say the hotel has a great location and great potential - to make something out of the wellness area.
