Located directly at Lake Wolfgang, Jugendgästehaus Sankt Gilgen offers free WiFi and free private parking. The Zwölferhorn Cable Car is 400 metres away.

A shared lounge is available at the property, and the rooms come with a seating area. Fantastic hospitality and a wonderful location, just 100 meters from the town center. An excellent choice for families as well as solo travelers. After a two-day journey, I was too exhausted to drive any further and found this place at the last minute. The hosts graciously offered me a room with four beds, even though I was traveling alone. The room was exceptionally comfortable—especially the bed—and I slept an uninterrupted 12 hours, which speaks volumes about the quiet and relaxing environment. The breakfast was delightful, though I had to hit the road shortly after, leaving little time to explore the charming and picturesque town of St. Gilgen.

Jugendherberge Bad Gastein features a garden, shared lounge, a terrace and bar in Bad Gastein. Located around 48 km from Zell am See-Kaprun Golf Course, the hostel with free WiFi is also 1.5 km away from Bad Gastein Waterfall. The property is non-smoking and is located less than 1 km from Bad Gastein Railway Station. Very nice location, directly on the Radweg Gasteinertal (also Alpe Adria), away from the core town of Bad Gastein, so quieter and also not too far from the train station. The receptionist was also very helpful, suggesting food recommendations and also the route to take for cycling to the Tauernschleuse.

At the hostel, all rooms are fitted with a desk. The Keep Eco Rooms provides certain units that feature a balcony, and every room includes a shared bathroom with a shower and a hairdryer. At the accommodation, the rooms include a seating area. The room was clean and had everything we needed. Worth going with kids to "taste" the simple living, to teach them to value everything. A proof that the recycling is possible. Close to the train station, to the center too, was just perfect for us.
