Zell am See is a town on the route of the Transalpin train.
Zell am See is a town on the route of the Transalpin train. We stayed for one night before our journey across the alps to Zurich. If you don't ski, there is little to do in town when it's cold outside besides a stroll along the beautiful lake and a visit to shops and restaurants. One 24-hour period was enough for us to see and do everything. The location of the train station made this a very easy place to visit.

Zell am See didn't have the quaint alps village feel at all,...
Zell am See didn't have the quaint alps village feel at all, more like a regular large town, the high street was very disappointing.
The scenery of the lake and mountains was breath taking. Simply beautiful.
Snow for skiing in Feb 24 was absolutely awful given the low altitude! A lot of mud patches on the lower runs rendering them unusable. I would consider elsewhere for skiing option tbh. The ski resort was small and good for beginners/families primarily.
I felt very safe walking around the town.

We loved Zell am See.
We loved Zell am See. From the ease of getting here (the train from Salzburg is clean, quick and on time), to the scenery, beautiful town and great people. Everyone was pleasant to deal with, the facilities are excellent (although watch out for the supermarkets closing early compared to the UK) and the skiing is brilliant. Lift queues were generally short. However, as expected, everything is expensive!

What I like the most: Friendly staff, free use of washing machine and dryer at the lobby, underground garage, spacious living room and fully equipped kitchen, near the lake for a leisure walk and near to town and near to a lot of ski lifts and cable car to Schmittenhöhe
What I don like: nothing. Just be sure not to have a late check in so that you can seek for help before the reception close

Zell am See is truly beautiful.
Zell am See is truly beautiful. We had an amazing week of skiing with an excellent ski guide (Thomas Hager, https://www.alpin-guide.com/eng/), who added so much to our ski holiday experience. The town of Zell am See has an array of great restaurants, bars and shops. We travelled over the Christmas period and the place was festive with lots of Christmas spirit in the air! We would highly recommend a trip to Zell am See.

Zell am See is a proper small town with a lovely pedestrian...
Zell am See is a proper small town with a lovely pedestrian zone and not just a ski resort. It is located on one side of a beautiful lake, surrounded by mountains. There's a good choice of places to eat and drink and I particularly like the Gin House and Steinerwirt. I get the sense it's quite a good place for a mixed group of those who ski/snowboard and those who don't, but it's particularly good for skiers as there are several lift options from and around the town, so wherever you stay you'll probably be close to one of the base lifts. Accommodation on the hill just above the town will have great views and, provided you leave your equipment at a base station or have a car, the walk is quite pleasant.
The apartment was ABSOLUTELY STUNNING design wise, layout wise, etc. and quiet; the whole building only include about 9 apartments which is nice. There was even one more bathroom than we had expected. Heated floors. Great ski room. It only took 3-4 min. to walk to the City Express ski lift (200m?) and it was 400m. from Billa and a cute area with shops, restaurants, etc. (not large, but nice to walk around with the kids).
Really liked the hosts. They are so friendly beyond expectations. Even when restaurant is closed they will find something for you. The receptionist and two ladies for breakfast. They are really stylish as well and speak many languages. If You ski than location is really good because its between slopes and the city. There is an outside cafe with music, so it can be fun just to stay in hotel.
If you come to ZELL AM SEE to ski / snowboard, this is a super convenient hotel. Top location (on the Main Street) - all restaurants and shops are nearby, bus to Kaprun is across the road, cityXpress ski lift is just a few houses away, Achleitner (very nice rental shop for skiing equipment) - also across the street. Very friendly staff. Breakfast OK, but gets repetitive on day 3.
Building is very well located with great access to lake, train station, city center as well as restaurants and shops. Apartment is very spacious and comfy, kitchen is well equipped. Appartement we had (Penthouse) is very bright and offers great view on the lake, as well as on surrounding mountains. There is a storage for skis as well as boots dryer in building.
Second stay at AlpenParks Zell am See. The location is just brilliant, close to the lake, close to the skiing (we went to Kaprun as Schmitten didn't have much snow this Easter). The staff was very helpful, the room was decent and clean. Facilities could use an upgrade.
Room size (1 bedroom apt) was okay, the sofa bed was fine too.
The staff were very friendly and the breakfast had plenty to choose from.
We have stayed in Zell am See at least 30 times, and it's the first time we've stayed at Edelweiss B&B. I've seen a lot of reviews about the noise outside, but I didn't think it was too bad; some of the hotels closer to the centre are a lot noisier.
Perfect location for Ironman Zell am See - maybe the closest 'nice' hotel to the swim start and transition zone. Excellent breakfast buffet loaded for options. Nice and large free parking lot. Very kind hotel staff and reception. You can take your bike up to your room. I cannot say anything negative with the experience.
Staff in the hotel are amazing, really kind and helpful. Hotel is 8min walking from the first ski lift. Hotel have a room to leave your ski equipment. I had a parking in front of the hotel even I went with my car on other places. Kaprun ski area, Zell am See city center, Tauern Spa Therme are 10min drive.
I loved the design of the furniture, it has different styles than other hotels/appatments. The staff were so friendly, especially Mr. Alex and Mis. Mara, They did breakfast for us and dinner and the service is fabulous!
The bar on the third floor has an amazing view the leak of Zell am See
Everything was perfect: All staff, design, breakfast, cakes, dinner (the 5 items dinner), the room, the view (although it was a side view), Facilities, etc...
We really enjoyed the 2 nights and definitely whenever visiting Zell am see again, we will visit the same hotel.
Obviously a great view on the lake with many options of exploration should you stay longer, rooms are modern (like new apartments that people build to live in), award winning cuisine. Super friendly personnel.
An amazing hotel right on the lake. Staff very friendly and helpful . lovely pool and spa area. free shuttle to the ski lifts . fantastic food and wine selection. sad to be home :-(
Location was nice, and close to shops and ski lifts. The sauna was amazing after a long day snowboarding. Apartments themselves were amazing, clean, comfy and felt like brand new (:
wonderful Hotel with best staff and amazing hotel rooms and location. captivating view at the balcony makes me stay in door all day. and will come again whenever I’m in Zell Am See
Modern apartments located close to city center and just 2 minutes walk from Ski Shuttle stop and Ski lifts. Breakfast were delicious. Spacious underground parking
The location of the hotel is quite good. You are situated a bit outside the busy Zell am See city center and close to the cable tracks leading up the mountains.
Great hotel, staff were very friendly and extremely helpful. Food was good after a days skiing. Location was great for access to Kaprun and Zell am see.
