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!

We stayed in a 1 bedroom 3 story chalet and everything about it was wonderful. The area is charming and the host was absolutely delightful. Will be coming back next year for sure and will stay here for longer. Great "base" to explore the lake region of Vienna. Host provided basics in the refrigerator and lots of firewood for the cozy fire. She even brought us a huge bowl of ice for us to make drinks

Wonderful stay in a lovely chalet
We had an absolutely wonderful stay here. A chalet with a lot of character. Clean and comfortable. Lovely kitchen. Obertraun is a lovely Alpine village away from the bustle of Hallstatt. Ideal for those looking to stay in a quiet place and engage in outdoor activities like hiking, cycling etc. in the surrounding areas. Very responsive and competent management.

We had a wonderful stay at Chalet am Sonnehang. We stayed two nights, one in the second floor apartment which was lovely and then switched to the “tiny house” so we could have a fire in the wood stove. Nestled in the cozy cabin at night with the warming fire was a perfect alpine experience in sleepy Obertraun away from the busyness and crowds in Hallstatt! We would highly recommend staying here. The hosts were exceptional and very helpful. 😊

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.

Our stay at Chalet am Sonnenhang was delightful. It was a pleasure to meet Lisa and Gabbie, and it was clear that they take great pride in thieir property -- as they should -- because it is extraordinary!
The suite was very quiet, private, authentic & tastefully decorated, and provided for a very unique experience. The sauna was a nice added amenity, and simple enough that we could figure out how to use it without complications.
The grounds are charming, and well-maintained.
We highly recommend Chalet am Sonnenhang to future guests and hope to return, someday!

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!!
