Lovely stay in Austrian Castle
Lovely stay in an Austrian castle. Lots of history explained to us by a host who is obviously passionate about the hotel and sharing it with the visitors.
All the staff were friendly and helpful; in particular the young man at breakfast.
It is a very quiet and peaceful location.
We loved our stay at Schloss Prielau Hotel. The staff made us feel like family & even upgraded us to the suite! The property is gorgeous & is only a 5 min walk from lake zell. The restaurant is incredible & it actually turned out to be the best food we ate for our entire trip. This hotel takes you back in time but it is very clean & maintained. We will be coming back one day!
Pros: This hotel is in a castle and is simply gorgeous! The staff, Annette and Max, were gregarious and helpful. (We loved this place. It was our favorite during our Austrian excursion.)
Cons: It's about a ten minute drive to town or a 35-minute walk.
Kleines, exquisites Haus, Personal sehr zuvorkommend, insbesonders die Chefin des Hauses bemüht um ihre Gäste, ausgezeichnetes Frühstücksbuffet, die Küche im dazu gehörigen Restaurant Mayer's top
Beautiful building and grounds but felt somewhat soulless.
The room was disappointing for a superior room and cost.
I think we wrongly interpreted several of the room photos to be of a superior room which they are evidently not.
If you want a historic venue, fancy restaurant and prepared to pay a high price for a mediocre room go for it!
Friendly staff. The room was very well insulated and quiet, there was a wedding party that day, and we couldn’t hear anything from outside. The decor is more Protestant than Vatican opulent, which I prefer and feels more native to the region. I recommend getting dinner at Mayer’s but be prepared, it’s a 3 hour event.
The “Schloss” was run by a very professional team.
Thoroughly enjoyed our four night stay in an historic property situated in beautiful and peaceful countryside.
We did not have a car so it was necessary to book taxis as property several minutes walk from nearest town/restaurant.
One comment that I feel is relative - do try and ascertain your guests’ expectations and abilities.
Our room was on third floor (no lifts) due to age of property etc. one of us was 87 and we, because we can, walked up and down the quite steep
stairs 3-4 times a day . We were offered accommodation on lower level when we arrived!!
We looked upon it as “exercise”. !!
You are sure to enjoy this delightful property in an oasis of beautiful and peaceful countryside.
Needless to say we thoroughly enjoyed the cuisine.
Thank you (especially Mickey)....
Obwohl wir bereits am Vormittag angereist sind, wurden wir äußerst freundlich empfangen und durften bereits unser geräumiges Zimmer beziehen. Die Damen waren sehr kompetent bei der Empfehlung für die geplante Wanderung. Das Schloß ist sehr gepflegt mit einem hohen Wohlfühlfaktor. Das Personal ist kompetent, freundlich, interessiert und umsichtig. Zum Frühstück gibt es alles, was das Herz begehrt. Was nicht am Buffet vorhanden ist, wird in der Küche frisch zubereitet. Die Lage ist einfach herrlich ruhig, nur eine Gehminute vom See entfernt, eingebettet in einem sehr gepflegten Park. In wenigen Gehminuten hat man den Ort Zell am See erreicht.
My wife and I and our doggy stayed at the Fischerhaus for three nights. We loved the privacy and seclusion that the Fischerhaus (cabin/cottage) offers—a true getaway. Did I mention an entire lake to ourselves? Also, heated floors are my new favorite thing. Despite being separate from the main Schloss (castle), housekeeping took excellent care of our room without intruding on our privacy. Breakfast was delicious. The staff was friendly and courteous. Overall, the stay was fantastic for all three of us. Highly recommend staying at this property; especially at the Fischerhaus.
Amazing experience at the castle! The territory is beautiful, its not located far from the city center but is very quiet - just what we needed during our vacation.
The owner - Anette, went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. The highlight of this was her driving me to the train station herself on the day when we could not find any taxis available.
I stayed in the room 32 which was one of the most beautiful rooms I ever got to stay in. The breakfast had everything we needed with fresh warm bread available every day. There is a sauna on premises which is great after active skiing. I'd definitely recommend Schloss Prielau!
Charming innkeeper (Annette). Great location for a peaceful & quiet stay. Beautifully appointed rooms.
I wish the restaurant would have been open (closed MON-TUE, but nothing on hotels.com indicated that).
Super roligt sted med dejlige omgivelser. Eneste er at man skal ud og køre for at få noget almindeligt mad og spise.

Perfect.
Fantastic place. Beautiful hotel with charm like few others we have been in. Great breakfast. If we were to come back to Zell, this would be the place to stay again. Nothing to do with the hotel, however, the town of Zell has changed a lot.
An und für sich ein wunderschönes Schloss, das Mädchen an der Rezeption interessiert sich allerdings mehr für sein Handy als für den Gast. Da es keinen Lift gibt sind die Zimmer im 3. Stock keine gute Wahl. Zimmer sind schön. Der Privatstrand wirkt vernachlässigt und es gibt nur vier Liegen. Schade, auf der Homepage hatte alles einen perfekten Eindruck gemacht. Es gibt in der Gegend viele Hotels mit einem besseren Preis-Leistungsverhältnis.
We had the 2 bedroom suite for 1 night traveling through Bavaria. The property was beautiful with lots of charm. The beds were very comfy and the bathroom was very nice. Loved the decor of the hotel. Very short walk to the lake and pretty walk to the main area of Zell Am See where all the restaurants and shops are. The hotel was very quiet and peaceful. While it did not bother us, I'll warn you that there is no elevator in the hotel so bags will need to be carried up to upper floors. There is no one hanging out at the front desk past 5 or 6 pm, but they could be reached by phone if needed. We did not have any meals at the hotel, so can't comment on that. I'd definitely recommend this hotel for a peaceful stay in Zell Am See!
we were on a driving tour of Europe and selected this hotel from the photographs on their website and its location being situated between our departure that day, Venice, and our destination, Munich. What a piece of luck! what a fabulous place, with its own church and, the best bit, an amazing restaurant!! Ros and i loved it and the hosts could not be more welcoming. lovely people. we will try and return again some day.
Tolles Hotel, supernette Service und riesige Suiten. Das Essen hat wirklich gehalten, was es versprochen hat. Ein unvergessliches Wochenende. 1000 Dank an Familie Mayer
Wir haben wunderbare Tage mit Schifahren, Spabesuch und Spazierengehen mit unserer kleinen Tochter in diesem kleinen, historischen Romantikschlösschen verbracht. Die Betreuung ist äußerst persönlich, zuvorkommend und auf allerhöchstem Niveau. Unser Abendessen in Mayer‘s ausgezeichnetem Gourmetrestaurant war nicht nur qualitativ dem Ruf entsprechend, sondern auch unsere 3-jährige Tochter wurde wie eine kleine Prinzessin behandelt wofür sich das liebenswürdige Team zumindest 4-Kindersterne verdiente und uns den Stress nahm und einen unvergesslichen Abend bescherte! Danke!
Das Schloss Prielau ist mit Navi leicht auffindbar und liegt sehr ruhig.
Der Ort Zell am See ist per Fuss erreichbar.
Das Schlosszimmer war aus unserer Sicht sehr sauber und komfortabel.
Das Frühstücksbuffet war mehr als ausreichend; frische Brötchen, ausreichende Auswahl an Honig, Wurst und Käse usw.. Sonderwünsche wie Rühreier, Espressi wurden ebenso erfüllt.
Beim Hotel befindet sich das Restaurant "Meyer's", welches mit einer 2-Sterne-Küche ausgezeichnet ist.
Über die ausgezeichnete Qualität der Küche konnten wir uns selbst überzeugen und es war ein Erlebnis, sowohl von den Servicekräften und Speiseangebot.
pěkné romantické prostředí, blízko Zell am See, pohodlné velké apartmány, služba ale slabá, na recepci nebyl při našem příjezdu nikdo, při vysoké ceně očekáváme dobrý servis - vždy k dispozici, rychle a se zájmem, líbila se nám sauna, ale chyběla voda, předchozí pár ji vypil a nová se již neobjevila
