Sportbahn Gernkogel I

Beautiful setting right by the lake, helpful staff, clean place, clean pool, great for families. Thank you.

Great vacation spot for sporty activities but also wellness and zoning out. Overall a very good experience regarding accommodation and staff’s recommendations. Despite being a star graded Hotel and therefore classy audience, staff was impressively generous and human. Sometimes even got out of their way to provide a good experience. Breakfast was definitely the highlight and something we always looked forward to - rich in variety, healthy but good choices for sweet tooth’s, great choices for everyone really. Breakfast tables view of the lake is the surplus that matters. The barista experience could have been a bit better but really.. the cookies do make you forget that. Room was tidy and inviting. Although you’d want to spend time outside; chilling inside really was a pleasure. It’s been a bit hot with the sun shining onto the glass front and to be fair the bar was noisy at times but all is manageable. Hotel restaurants rarely are worth a recommendation but this one is for sure - what a blast of traditional Austrian dishes. Would book a table any time. Only downsides might really be the parking which on the other side is also super individual and depending on other hotel guests impressingly creative parking skills. Plus the sauna really could be hotter.

Two sisters run this hotel and they are wonderfully kind and involved in making any stay here exceptional. The service is second to none. The breakfast is spectacular, with locally sourced farm to table products. They have a huge assortment of great tea and desserts available to guests. We didn’t hit the spa, as we stayed here during our time hiking in the Dolomites. It was a bit further out from some of the hotels nearer the hikes but it is absolutely worth it to be in such a beautiful place with such incredible hospitality.
