We stayed in the Hotel Schafberg last year and loved the place so much that we decided to celebrate our wedding there. The view from the mountain is amazing. The service is very good and friendly. During the day it gets quite busy with the tourists who arrive on the mountain train but once the last train has left it is like paradise. The rooms are nice and clean. The bathrooms are quite basic but clean and a hot shower is all you need. The view from the balcony couldn't be any better. You can see the lake and the Dachstein glacier in the background. Since there is nowhere else to go once you are up here you might not want to stay for more than one night but everybody staying in St. Wolfgang or in the region should definitely spend one night up here. A true Austrian mountain experience! We will be back!

It can get very cold, windy and snow up there so take warm clothes. No TV. The room is good with a great view if there is no cloud. Small bathroom. Dinner good, breakfast not good - brown bead, butter, jam, liver paste with coffee or tea - that's it. Family run. Helps if you speak some German.
