The location is perfect. The breakfast was great. This is an old building with very squeaky floors, which adds to its charm, and we didn't hear the floors and stairs at night. The rooms are charming with old rustic furniture. Our room faced the town square with a magnificent view. Our co travellers had a view of the lake. The outdoors serving area is right on the lake, which would've been amazing, if only we hadn't been there in wasp season.

We were in Hallstatt during a heatwave. We knew the place did not have AC, but it would have been great with a fan in the room at least. But that's really the only less positive thing we can say about the place. The wasp season was in full bloom, so sadly we had to quickly escape from the outdoors serving area, where we attempted to enjoy our breakfast. We're not faulting the B&B for that, it's wasp season everywhere.

We enjoyed everything especially our cosy room with lake view. Location was exceptionally unbeatable just a few mins walk from the boat pier. Breakfast at the lake was wonderful. Also love the vibes of the atmosphere inside the house even the wooden floor was squeaky. The most impressive thing was that I dropped my card holder (travel card +small money) around the reception area. The lady at the house instantly texted me in the inbox. Thank you so much for your honest (to your colleague) and kind service. Very appreciated.

The hot shower seemed to not working properly (only in my room I guess).

This wonderful, quaint guest house is located in the most beautiful Austrian town... in my opinion a must see on any trip to Austria. Gasthof Simony is located in the very center of the town and we had very clear directions as to how to arrive. The staff were all helpful and friendly. This is a typical old style, European guest house. The room was small but worked great for three of us. The daily European breakfast was wonderful and again.. the location cannot be beat. We would stay there again for sure.

If you are looking for a luxury type of hotel, this is not that type of experience. This is a traditional European Bed Breakfast- quaint, clean, and hospitable.

We had unforgettable stay in this hotel. It is located in the most center of the city, the location cannot be better. It has a wonderful garden with a lovely terrace for taking meals. Ancient interior of this house is amazing I felt there like in a museum. Breakfast was good and hotel staff was friendly and very responsive.

It has to be considered that level of comfort is limited with old-style furniture, sound-proofing and sanitary facilities, therefore I would not recommend this place for long-term stay (4+ days).

The room was definitely clean, with a rather ambience of antiquity and a sense of old days in Austria. The room has a sink inside the room, rather useful for washing teeth and face, but toilets and showers are outside and shared with other rooms and other guests. This is not necessarily an inconvenience as there are plenty of them and are rather clean. Breakfast is good, with a good variety of food, though it is recommended to show early to avoid crowds. About the location. Well Hallstatt is an idyllic for those wishing to experience a place of fairy tale location. The hosts, rather say hostesses, as they are mostly women are rather polite and show concern for the experience of their clients. Hallstatt is actually a rather difficult place to get specially by train, as a ferry must be taken afterwards and are specific runs of both of them. Guests should be aware of this situation and ask Gasthof Simony staff for advice in this sense. We received a great treatment in this sense, and we were advised with anticipation about this. Thank you so much for everything!! Vielen, vielen Dank Gashof Simony, alles war wunderbar!!

In general, all was OK. But like all touristic locations in this world Hallstatt, like Barcelona in Spain, Athens in Greece, Querétaro in Mexico, is one more town that is getting tired of tourists. There are clear warnings to tourists placed in the town: "This is our home, do not shout or be drunk, or whatever..." Clear demonstrations have taken place in Spain recently (July 2024) and Hallstatt, despite living of tourism mainly, can turn rather hostile to tourists under certain circumstances. Things can turn rather ugly if the visitors don't take this into account.

Thanks for a great stay.This was my first trip alone in my life.I am Japanese and my English is not very good, not to mention my German, so I was very worried at first. But this place is located in the middle of Hallstatt, there is no way to get lost, and the hosts were kind enough to show us everything!They also taught me how to open the lock! If I spoke better English, I would have expressed my gratitude for the hospitality and my excitement about the Hallstatt land.I also love the view of the lake from the balcony of my room. I recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a peaceful and friendly place to stay! I hope I can visit again someday! Berry Berry Thank you.

Location: Nestled at the heart of Hallstatt, with the lake just a stone's throw away, Gasthof Simony Hallstatt B&B offers unparalleled convenience, allowing guests to explore the entire village on foot. Breakfast: The breakfast at Gasthof Simony Hallstatt B&B was simply delightful, with a delicious spread that, although somewhat limited in variety, provided a satisfying start to the day. Room: While the room itself was comfortable and satisfactory, it was adorned with somewhat dated furniture, which may not appeal to those seeking a more modern ambiance. Staff: The staff at Gasthof Simony Hallstatt B&B were a true highlight, with their warm smiles and helpful demeanor adding to the overall pleasantness of the stay, ensuring guests feel welcomed and well taken care of.

I had an amazing stay! The location is literally in the center, within a 5-minute walk to all the key spots, including the most well-known Instagram spot, a beautiful waterfall, ferries, great restaurants, and a supermarket. The room was beautiful, blending old-world charm with breathtaking character. Breakfast was amazing, and the staff were very welcoming and helpful. Although I forgot to take photos of my room, I did snap a few of the terrace with its stunning view of the lake and city—we spent hours just being charmed by the view. Highly recommend!

1. The receptionist didn't speak English, which made communication a bit challenging at first. However, we were able to work things out and come to an understanding. Don't get me wrong—the staff is generally very helpful and nice. 2. Unfortunately, the beds are hard, as are the parquet floors and thin walls, so you can hear other guests. It’s quiet from 10 p.m. to 7 a.m., but many beautiful places recommend quiet from 6 a.m., which can be a challenge to not wake up neighbors who want to sleep. After a long day of travel, it's important to check in quickly and get settled, especially if you’re coming from far away.

Very good location just 15 meters from central square. Old traditional wooden lakeside property. Amazing lake view from the balcony. It was possible to eat breakfast on the lakeside garden. Very good breakfast. If you are looking for cheap accomondation in Hallstatt then this is the best solution for you. Just 300m meters walking distance from the famous view point. I will visit it again

The unique fault is that the curtain was allowing the sunlight to go in the apartment and wake me up. And I was woke up from 7 a.m due to the sunlight. You must replace the curtain with a dark one

The position on the lake is may the best in Hallstatt and at the same time parctically at Markplatz. Just excellent. You can have breakfast next to water or a dip in lake. Balcony with the lake view and rocking chair is extraordinary. The stuff during breakfast was very nice. Breakfast also reasonably nice.

Internet just did not work ... the slow speed made in unreasonable. There is no possibility of luggage drop off but this is probablt the case most of central hotels. Shuttle betwen P1 parking lot stops working at 6PM. The walk is nice and about 15 min, but for some it can be a problem with luggage. Get ready before that before arrival by taking with you only what you really need. It is a pity that the hotel restaurant is closed. This means you cannot get a drink to take on yoru rocking chair and you can;t access the lake shore of the hotel late at evening.
