Enjoying a perfect location, standing on the shores of lake Mondsee, and just a ten minute walk from the town of the same name, Seehotel Lackner is a charming boutique hotel, owned and run by the same family since 1919.

Innovative contemporary cuisine, from carefully selected ingredients is enhanced with exquisite service and stunning views of Lake Mondsee and the mountains - the perfect venue for a gastronomic break or gourmet holiday. But it is not just about fine food and wine. Seehotel Lackner's lakeside setting means that it is perfect for relaxing outdoor holidays by the shores of the Mondsee. Guests can enjoy swimming from the private beach area, along with a fabulous range of water-sports, including sailing, wind-surfing, diving and canoeing. Cycling is also recommended in the region, with an excellent range of clearly marked trails for riders of all levels, from easy trips around the lakes or spectacular Alpine bike routes. In winter, the lake usually freezes, making it ideal for ice skating and curling, while downhill and cross-country skiing are available in a number of family-friendly resorts in the region.
