This traditional, family-run hotel is located in the heart of the picturesque town of St. Gilgen, only a few steps away from the shore of Lake Wolfgang. Recently renovated and enlarged, Hotel Gasthof zur Post GmbH was built in 1330 and served for a long time as a coaching inn. The foundation and parts of the façade are from the Middle Ages. The building's special charm is reflected in its massive stone walls and floors, the traditional basements and vaults, and the precious wall paintings. At the Gasthof zur Post you can experience the very special ambience of a traditional atmosphere combined with innovative design. Classic elements such as green loden, a great deal of wood and deer antlers are integrated into the rooms in an original way. Many rooms feature impressive open bathrooms. Enjoy a rich selection of delicious regional and Austrian specialities, traditional fare and seasonal delicacies such as asparagus. The freshly caught fish from Lake Wolfgang is especially popular. All ingredients come from the Salzkammergut region. Over the years Gasthof zur Post has hosted many famous personalities. In August 1784 the wedding of Mozart's sister Anna Maria, nicknamed “Nannerl”, took place here.

Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 9.1 for a two-person trip.

    The hotel is charming. Just what you expect of an "Old World" Bohemian style respite. The heavy furnature, the warm cozy blankets.
