This hotel with it‘s balcony and amazing views of the lake and mountains (room 102) will stay in our hearts forever. Ms. Leifer was the very kind owner, and told us a lot about the history of the area and her family owning the property for hundreds of years. She went out of her way to make us feel like part of the family. We had a locked room to store our bicycles and a washing machine for guests. The family has a private dock/swimming area just across the street, and lots of swimming towels, boards, and toys we could use. After a hot day of cycling, a dip in that gorgeous lake was just what we needed. We were greeted with free snacks and delicous chocolate cake slices. Afterwards, we went for a walk in town (5-7 minute walk). It was the cutest Austrian old town we‘ve seen, with many narrow passageways and beautiful old buildings. After our sightseeing tour, we picked up supplies at the tiny grocery store and headed home. Our room was actually an apartment with a kitchenette, so we fixed our charcuterie board and had a lovely dinner on the balcony with some good local Austrian wine as the sun was setting. Perfection. The large historical room had lots of nice touches, with good bedding and plenty of storage. While the property doesn‘t offer breakfast officially, they do offer a bread service, which was very convenient. Also down in the pretty common area was complimentary spreads and butter for the bread, and coffee for a small fee. This was more than enough breakfast for us, and the best part was being able to spend a little more time on that glorious balcony. We could have stayed for a week. Many, many thanks to the Familie Leifer for their kindness and hospitality. You live in a little slice of heaven.

The communication before arrival was fantastic with details of how to check in and collect keys, but one of the owners was there to hand these over in person. The lake views are simply stunning and the location is fantastic for using the ferries and the Schaffbergbahn. It is a pleasant 10 minute walk to get to the main town square. The room was large, comfortable and with self catering facilities. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again - exceptional value. They offer a breakfast/bread delivery service and an honesty bar.

I know St Wolfgang exceptionally well having lived there for 3 summers and the Leifer Apartments exceeded my expectations. I don't think I have anything negative to say.

We enjoyed the view, the silence, the communal lobby, the modern interior, the low budget breakfast buns and croissants that we were supplied with easily and contactless. We were thankful for all the (e.g. cooking) utensils and equipment that we had found in the apartment. Drained of power after some long walks through the dazzling landscapes of Salzkammergut we also felt really lucky to get to use not only the parking area directly behind the building, but also an elevator to get to our cozy hideout.

There is not much left to say about the facts except that the two parts of our bed tended to move apart which maybe made our time sleeping a bit uncomfortable, but I couldn’t say it kept us from experiencing a calming stay in any way.

This was my second stay at Seehaus Familie Leifer, and it felt just as peaceful and comforting as my first visit back in November 2023. The moment I arrived, I was reminded why I fell in love with this place—the serene atmosphere, the warmth of the surroundings, and the sense of calm it brings. Everything was spotless, just like my previous stay, which gave me such a reassuring sense of familiarity. The kitchen had everything I needed to prepare simple meals, adding to the feeling of being right at home. I truly cherish my time here and would love to return again.

I had a fantastic stay at Seehaus Familie Leifer! The location is absolutely amazing, offering breathtaking views of the Alps and the lake—truly a sight to wake up to every morning. The property itself is clean, well-maintained, and beautifully designed, making it a comfortable and relaxing place to stay. One small suggestion would be to provide some basic utensils like a plate and spoon in the room, which would be convenient for guests. Overall, a wonderful experience, and I highly recommend it!

One small suggestion is to provide basic utensils, like a plate and spoon, in the room, which would be convenient for guests. The bed needs improvement, as joining two single beds to make a double causes them to skid apart.

We loved everything about this accommodation. We (a couple) had the apartment with lake view on the second floor which had a generously sized furnished balcony that we enjoyed sitting out on overlooking the spectacular mountain and lake scenery. Everything was clean and comfortable and we particularly appreciated the provision of the courtesy 7 gear bikes that we cycled around the lake on. The private bathing area was also a bonus, and we enjoyed bathing in the lake there - there is even some boating craft provided for guests' use if desired. Oher equipment provided that we did not use were gym and laundry facilities, and there is a daily breakfast breads delivery service available if required. The location is ideal, just a ten minute stroll into the centre of town but enough of a distance to provide peace and quiet - it is also just a couple of blocks away from the schafbergbahn - cog railway - terminus (housing the recommended EQ restaurant) and the Schifffahrt - Wolfgangsee lake ferryboat - landing dock. The landing dock of the smaller cross-lake ferry over to Abersee is literally just across the road from the accommodation also. Host Magdalena and her staff are exceptionally pleasant, friendly and helpful, and we would not hesitate in re-booking here should we return to St. Wolfgang in the future.

Maybe a picture in the interior to soften the bare walls would be welcome - but this is splitting hairs.

Spacious and well planned accomodation including a lovely balcony. The location is wonderful and so close to the mountain train and the lake ferry and yet peaceful. Best of all the views are incredible.

The local shop closes at 5pm on Saturday and doesn’t open until Monday. Would recommend stopping at the Spar in St Gilgen if arriving by car. There is a coffee maker. Filter papers were provided but you have to take your own ground coffee which we hadn’t because we didn’t know what kind of coffee machine it would be. An entry code was given on the instructions but no information of how to use it. A member of staff was on hand on our arrival but check in did take a little while.

Very comfortable and warm apartment. Walking distance from St Wolfgang and views over the lake. In the ground floor there is a big living room, nice for reading, playing board games or just having a tea. They offer some little breakfast but I can't comment because we didn't enjoy it as we had other plans.

The door of the bathroom was so heavy that you cannot leave it open for ventilation. The roof of our apartment was a bit low in some areas, not ideal for tall people ;)

We had an amazing time! We got a room with a small kitchen and a balcony with an amazing view!!! A few steps away, there is a private beach with a paddle board and kayaks, The family that runs the place and the people who work there are very friendly and welcoming 🙏 the owner even gave us a ride to the restaurant to eat dinner! They have bicycles that you can take and explore the town! The bed is very comfortable and we regret we didn't stay longer! We will come back and recommend it to our friends 🧡

Loved everything!

It is a great choice for families. The room is fully equipped with kitchen facilities, and we enjoyed the private beach, which included breach chairs, paddle boards, and kayaks. The volleyball courts and trampolines in the yard are great for both younger kids and teenagers. The owner is very kind, and the location is excellent, with plenty of parking spaces. Walking distance to the railway station for trips to the mountain. Although breakfast was not provided, delicious fresh bread was delivered right on time to our door.
