The hotel is right next to a river and it's beautiful. I loved the balcony and our room was a good size. Stayed two nights in August and it was a great experience. Free breakfast buffet was a nice amenity. One of the more remote places I have stayed, but hearing the river from the room was great. It felt very authentic and there is good Austrian food available in the town.

By recommendation, we found a jewel in Bad Ischl…read more My family and I have been visiting this place more than five times now. Originally I would say Bad Ischl is the place for the older generation, but.... if you like good food, mountain hiking and Austrian lifestyle - go there. The Hotel "Goldener Ochs" is a nice little Hotel beneath Traun River and Bad Ischl is surrounded by woods and Mountains where you can do either Winter Sports (Dachstein) or go for hiking in the mountains - or just visit nice places like the Wolfgang-See or Hallstatt. Coming back to the Hotel "Goldener Ochs". This place has rooms in different sizes with and without balcony. The Hotel is managed by the Schweiger Family since more than three generations. When we were visiting this nice Hotel, we have been treated like welcomed friends and we can say that we always had our whishes fulfilled. The Hotel comes with a great little Restaurant - an old (but renovated) part - where Mr. Lehar - the famous composer of Operas - was regular guest - and a new part - covered by an open view glass ceiling. The food offered is of great quality and very, very tasty. I especially like the fish soup (normally I don't like fish soup - but this here´s delicious). The breakfast buffet offers all you can imagine from a german/austrian buffet (scrambled eggs, eggs sunny side up, bacon, jam, toast, several fruits, sausage, cheeses, honey, every sort of bread, ..... - but no pancakes baked beans or something like that - the only thing a british or US person would miss here) The Hotel comes with a nice small Wellness Area with a steam bath, Kneipp-Area, infrared sauna, two different Finnish Saunas (be aware Sauna environment this is a clothing optional area, mixed genders!!) and a small Gym. (If you like - you can ask for a Physio Therapy body massage. The Hotel staff will arrange this for you). Also a small Swimming Pool with integrated Jacuzzi and some Deckchairs are available. All in all not to heavy frequented. In warmer times of the year, the little garden attached to the Pool area is open for guests. Upstairs - above the Pool area - you find a silent room with Deck Chairs and a beautiful view on the Kathrin Mountain and Sirius-Kogel (hill with tower on it).

It's hard to believe nobody has rated this wonderful hotel. We come here most summers when the…read morehotel is not packed as it is in the peak ski season. As a result, a few of the facilities aren't open, but there are still plenty of things to take advantage of. The staff is wonderful and they deal well with stupid Americans like me that only sprechen a few words of German. The restaurant has an incredible breakfast buffet and serves excellent, tasty meals. My wife has very specific requirements for her food and the cooks do a wonderful job of adjusting to her requirements. You can rent bicycles or walk into the lovely altstadt just a few blocks up the road. There are tennis courts, a pool, a sauna, and just about all the comforts you would want in a summer visit. Want a massage? They can do that, too. Almost all rooms have a balcony with great views of the valley and mountains. Some of these balconies can be quite spacious. Like many hotels in this part of the world there is no air conditioning (except in the dining room), but that generally is not a problem even on the occasional warm day. Ask the front desk for a room fan - between circulating the air and cracking the door to the balcony, the air is dry enough to make a difference when needed. It cools down rapidly at night.

Even when we stayed up until midnight talking after dinner, they were kind and made sure we had everything we needed. The breakfast buffet was also delicious, I have to add. There was also a heated room to put the ski boots so they could dry overnight, and another place for the skis/snowboards, and also heated racks in the room to hang the towels!! As an America, I wasn't prepared for how legit the sauna was, and their long process with the authentic experience, but it was super fun and I enjoyed every day there. I'll definitely miss this place, and am looking forward to coming again to play pool and relax in their lounge area.
