Natur- und Aktivresort Reiterhof

The first impression was nice and not very different from the two other hotels (*****) we have visited at Achensee before.||But…||First positive:||Thomas - the fitness coach and sauna expert is amazing!!!||Place is newly built/renovated and in good shape||Amazing breakfast buffet - you literally can get everything ||Gorgeous service staff, very well trained ||||Now sadly the down sides:||||For us very important: pillows and duvets: those at Reiterhof offered are bully, inflexible, very sweaty and cheap. Woke up several times a night!||Out of reclining beds: after a hiking tour we arrived at ~ 3:45 at the hotel. Twice ( on Sunday AND Monday) it wasn’t possible to get to beds in one relax room) - not enough capacity ||No space at Sauna: the Sauna sessions by Thomas and Zsolt are very popular- ||You have to be there at least !!!! 15 minutes to get one mini space in the overcrowded sauna- kinda disgusting - not enough guided Sauna sessions!||Food: breakfast is perfect- incredible! ||Lunch (included: salad, soup, entree, dessert from buffet) are highly appreciated but entrees were always kinda cold||Dinner: obviously very fancy at the first glimpse- unfortunately most dishes extremely salty - no matter if soup, fish, meats, vegetables ||Pleasure Pool: nice ‘hot’ outdoor pool: temperature is fine as long as the sun is out. In rainy days it’s a little to cold to enjoy this pool a little longer:||Towels: you need to get your towels exchanged at the reception- one day our wait time was 15 minutes because of check-ins||Some more issues, which should not occur in this price range||||My suggestion: invest some Euros more for 5***** nearby - you will enjoy MUCH more quality, relax and happiness

Excellent stay for those looking for an excellent spa and resort stay with a wide variety of outdoor activities, great service and fantastic meal service. Indoor and outdoor pools, well equipped gym with daily activities, a sauna world with a variety of options, a medical and beauty spa to round out the experience is just a few of the amenities offered here. We will be back.

Fantastic! Great food, brilliant service. Spa, gym and pool areas are superb. Rooms are outstanding. This place surpassed all my expectations! One of the best 👏🏻

Found this place on booking.com. Great price for a junior suite, access to sauna, pool and meals included. The pool is stainless steel with a jacuzzi on the side. Sleek stylish big for swimming lengths. This is a "wellness" hotel and therefore all the guests are calm quiet smiley polite and doing their own self care thing. The Sauna world has daily ceremonies i.e. chocolate, lemongrass. One of the sauna's are super hot and while laying in it you can look through the glass window out into the mountains. ||Everything was clean, quiet and calm. The staff are exceptional and proud to work at this amazing place, while they ensure you have a great stay. ||Lunch is accessible through the buffet, you get an option of one meal and the bread bar, dessert bar coffee and juices. We had the schnitzel out on the large patio overlooking the pool and lawn. Dinner was like eating at a gourmet restaurant. Delicious with amazing presentation. We had 4 courses. A perfectly soft boiled egg on mashed potato foam, then meat broth with veal meatballs, the dear was tender and delicious with red cabbage and beets around it. The dorade fish was crispy on the outside and perfectly cooked on the inside. to welcome you the dessert was a pineapple coconut panacotta. Amazing! I never had such an amazing breakfast with so many options! persecco, fresh squeezed orange juice, fresh make your own smoothie with apples carrots and ginger, eggs, crêpes, honey from a honey comb, big assortment of jams and marmalade, we ate all morning :)||The hiking path starts from the hotel and assuming it goes into the mountain. Many of the guests were hikers and some were seniors and couples for the wellness spa part of it. ||We stayed in the junior suite which was spacious with a separate room with two twin beds. The woods smells amazing and when you go out on the balcony in the morning you can hear the cow bells from a far. It's picturesque and you never want to leave LOL.||twin and double beds were super comfortable. Bathroom is spacious with a tub and separate shower, two sinks. ||I can't recommend this hotel enough for a quick weekend getaway. I would definitely come back for a week to do some hiking and biking!

Absolute stunning place if you are interested in the region Achensee. Last time we visited this place with my family was in 2019 and this place shows the excellency consistently! Outstanding “pleasure and active pools” as well as brilliant sauna areas which actually are even better than before!

We stayed for one night in August and we liked it so much we booked another 5 nights in September. ||Every member of staff we met were friendly and helpful. Our room was very clean and spacious (we stayed in a panorama suite, on the newer side). We enjoyed some sunny afternoons sat on our balcony.||The pool is lovely - the right temperature and well maintained - and we spent a lot of time in and around it. ||We hired bikes and went cycling several times - there are some great routes around the area. ||The food at the Reiterhof is outstanding. We didn't have one meal which we didn't like or wasn't well cooked. ||The gym is spacious and clean, the equipment and space looked new. ||We will be back as soon as we can!

We spend an anniversary weekend at this hotel and it was the best choice we could have made. The location is great, several km away from the north side of the lake (5min with the car, 35min walking), with several hiking trails starting from the hotel through the forest. The hotel is higher than the road thus road noise isn‘t a problem. Our Junior Suite had a beautiful view and we had lots of space. The Spa/Wellness is unbelievable, pools (warm water), saunas, jacuzzi, massage, plenty of space to sunbath or relax. The restaurant/food was really really good (menu states it’s Bio), kudos to the Chef and the great service team which made our stay unforgettable. Great price/value, highly recommend!

Wonderful Hotel, everything perfect. The food is delicious, they have a vegetarian menu & healthy food alternatives. The bar is amazing and the barkeeper makes the best gin tonic! From the outdoor whirlpool, you have a stunning view of the mountains. The Sauna area is remarkable, with a lot of details and different kinds of sauna types, and different shower experiences. You have an outdoor and indoor sauna area with a great view of the mountains. It was a birthday present from my boyfriend and the staff brought a cake with a candle. The staff was very friendly, attentive, and courteous. The rooms, the food, the pool & the sauna area were decorated with a lot of attention to detail.It was an incredible weekend. Thank you for this experience.
