Villa Excelsior Hotel Kurhaus

I recently stayed at this hotel and had a wonderful experience. While the hotel is located a bit further from the train station, the convenient transfer service provided by the hotel made it incredibly easy to get to and from, eliminating any inconvenience. The hotel itself is exceptionally stylish and beautiful. My room was spacious, impeccably clean, and offered stunning views of the mountains. Housekeeping was excellent, with daily cleaning and towel changes. The staff were absolutely fantastic – friendly, helpful, and always ready to assist. I opted for the half-board option, which included breakfast and dinner served à la carte. Dinners were a highlight, with a varied menu and delicious desserts. While breakfast wasn't as diverse, the staff were incredibly accommodating and always offered my child options not listed on the menu. This was a really thoughtful touch. One of the standout features of the hotel was the sauna complex, which included an infrared sauna, a Finnish sauna, and a bio sauna. It was a perfect way to relax after a day of exploring. The room was always comfortably warm, which was much appreciated. The hotel also provided complimentary sledges for my child, as well as a cot in the room. The hotel also offered comfortable communal areas where guests could relax, play games, or read. The building itself is in a classic style but is very well maintained, giving it a charming and elegant atmosphere. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel

We spent a charming two nights in a double mountain view room at Villa Excelsior during winter season, a historic hotel bit removed from the historic center of Bad Gastein. The hotel offers complimentary pickup from the train station and is an easy (and picturesque) walk from the historic center. The half-board option includes a buffet breakfast (delicious coffee!) and a gourmet dinner in a classy dining room with excellent service. The hotel also has a wellness with different saunas and a relaxation room (that we used daily before dinner), and offers massage service and thermal baths (that we didn't use). There are also many public area sitting rooms. While there are probably more luxurious places than the three star hotel, would return for the excellent service, historic feeling, and quiet / comfortable rooms. I believe it's possible to book for dinner, which is well worth it even if one is not staying at the hotel.

one of the best hotels i ever visited and the receptionist guy is very nice he helped us a lot and nice breakfast the have
