the check in schedule, check in ends at 19.00 - we really rushed on the highway (i know - not smart) to arrive on time and we arrived 10 min late. The owner was really kind to allow us too check in and we are very grateful, but whe had a very stressful trip from Vienna to the place. Also, Breakfast is overpriced.

we enjoyed the location, the little and charming bungallows, the rich breakfast and the outstanding multilingual staff. Additionally, the activities to do are numerous (biking, hiking, kayaking...) if you would like to avoid the touristy Hallstadt. You can go by bike anywhere, even to hallsdtatt. We drove from Vienna to the localtion of the hotel. however, you can also arrive to hallstadt by train and then rent a bike to the place; or travel to town of Obertraun (Obertraun train station is 20 min walk from the hotel). The staff will recommend (and make the bookings fro you) at many great and good quality restauratnts.

A truly unique lodging experience in a beautiful refurbished gypsy caravan, nestled in a magical lakeside garden.

The early check out time is a challenge. A little more time in the morning to soak in the uniqueness and beauty of the accommodation and to have a slower start to the day would have added to the enjoyment of this special place.

These unique and lovely gypsy wagons on the very edge of the lake, deliver everything promised for a wonderful stay and more. Everything was spotless and it is evident that a lot of love and care went into the creating and upkeep of these capsules of history. The property itself are lovingly taken care of and the surroundings are breathtakingly beautiful.

This is a great place. To fully enjoy it, embrace the rustic aspect of staying in a Romani caravan. It’s curated, and the owner loves what they are doing. All you need is to bring a bottle of wine, and let you mind go back 100 years and embrace it.

The location was great. We biked and hiked and had easy access to Halstatt

The property is run by a husband and wife along with their adult daughter, and a dedicated staff. It seems there is quite a lot of work for this small team and when something goes wrong (a guest doesn't follow directions and crashes his camper into a bush, for example) it slows the process of check-in and check-out. (We commend the owners for their patient response.) This was not a problem for us particularly, but could be frustrating to a guest who was on a specific timeline to get to another destination.

The most unique and interesting place we stayed on our 35th-anniversary trip was Park am See. We stayed in one of the restored caravans, La Mandragora, instead of the usual B and B or hotel. While I don't think I would want permanently live in a caravan, it was wonderful for a few days. The owners are interesting and have backgrounds in the history of food and of art. They shared interesting stories about how they acquired and restored the caravans and lodges on the property. From our conversations, it seems they are interested in preserving this unique location and sharing it with others. This is a campsite, so there are camping vans, people in tents, and unique lodges all on the property. Our location was quiet and close to the lake. We opted to pay extra for breakfast, which we enjoyed very much. We were presented a selection of fresh produce, beautifully cooked eggs, and a variety of meats and bread. One morning we had breakfast inside and the next we had it out on the porch. The owners helped us make a reservation at a local restaurant that offered a delicious meal and seemed full of both regular locals and tourists. The location of Park am See was perfect if you have a vehicle. The area was more peaceful than Halstatt, which was so crowded and presented challenges for parking. We opted to drive around to Obertraun and take the boat across to Hallstatt. The boat ride was pleasant, gave us a unique view of Hallstatt, and helped us avoid the crazy parking problems there. We would absolutely stay again and highly recommend this as a fantastic experience.

It was an unexpectedly pleasant surprise. Instead of a dull hotel room we received a piece of rafinesse and intelectual challenges. A piece of history and culture planted in our every day more styleless life

We had to wait quite long at the check out (check in was fine as there was only one person before us), the process of check in and out seemed quite outdated and could be fastened, one staff member told us quite unfriendly to leave the reception and wait outside the building, as we waited the queue just got longer and longer and the staff seemed not to care

It really is a unique place to stay, we loved the lodge “Belladonna” we stayed in, everything was clean, we were very surprised by the comfort of the toilet and the bathroom as it was similar to a normal house, there was a private beach only for lodge residents with grass, trees and two chairs with a stunning lake view, the owner told us some interesting facts about the lodge, place was not very crowded so it felt like we had the lake and beach all to ourselves We will surely come back to check out other lodges!

We asked for some extra ham and cheese for breakfast and were charged for it, which is totally fine but we would have appreciated it if that had been communicated in advance.

What did we like? Everything!

Calm, peaceful with stunning scenery. The Park was family run and our hosts were warm, friendly and welcoming. The breakfast was delicious and there was a lovely terrace to enjoy a glass of wine in the evening. Our cabin was cosy and elegant and a delightful home from home during our trip. We chose to stay outside Hallstatt, and on reflection it was a good decision as the views across the lake in the evening where lovely.

Too pricey for what you get. Specific owners... they love art and trying everything to be beautiful but expecting everyone to walk on the toes around it... it is a place to stay for night not a gallery 😅 Beer very expensive, and same with breakfast Even you have a hob in room you can't use it. It is a decoration 🤣🤣 and when you arrive on a map of the park you have a small print- don't cook in wagon 🤪

Stylish place. Beautiful view on Halstead IF you stay in wagon. Interesting design. What they do they do with passion. Good quality cosmetics. Lovely windows in wagon

4pm checkin time was a little later than we would like but the staff was so friendly it made up for it!

Beach access with views of Hallstatt were beautiful! We loved having a private washroom & shower with our caravan/room. It was one of the best sleeps I have had on our entire trip through Austria. Breakfast was delicious and beautiful!

Staying in an old Gypsy Wagon was an exceptional experience! It was an experience you don't get very often and you clearly felt the enthusiasm and warmth with which the owners had brought these old wagons back to life, placed them in one of the finest and most spectacular places in Austria. An absolute " MUST TRY " experience!!

because its a camping area , they don’t provide a/c in the lodges nor a fan , but in my opinion thats the owner idea i guess to keep things as simple as camping should be .. another thing is i wish that they will add insects net for the windows to allow the residents to open the windows at night for a nice cool air from outside the lodges (-:

this place is one of a kind, its like living in a museum ! really its a piece of art , the classic lodges are something else ! i can tell that the owner must spend a-lot of cash and hard work to achieve such an art .. ps..”don’t compare “Park am See” to any other ordinary hotel because its not a hotel ! , this experience is a must when visiting HALLSTATT !

As it was mid July when we visited, it was naturally quite hot so it would have been great if we had some better air conditioning in the hut and perhaps the huts could be better situated so they were more isolated for privacy from one another but this is really minor.

The location is great if you want something a little quieter than the many tourists in Halsttatt but still want to be close enough to enjoy the lake, pop in to the village and explore. I can't describe how comfy the beds were and the cleanliness of the bathroom, it was perfect. The manager and his wife are sweethearts and as someone who clearly knows food, he gave the best recommendations for local restaurants. We were so happy with his hospitality.

I think they only serve breakfast or kitchen was closed during our stay. better to ask in advance.

it has the best view of Halstatt lake. stay here instead of Hallstatt center.
