We look forward to welcoming you to our corner of paradise. Our guesthouse has been designed to help our guests feel relaxed and at home. We are always on hand at breakfast time to answer questions or offer advice about your holiday plans. Our spacious breakfast room offers panoramic views of the mountains. Our guests like to take their time over our highly rated breakfast with a good selection of local and home made produce, most notably our home made jams and cakes. Our guest rooms have large/extra large beds & comfortable chairs, we also offer a guest lounge with sofas, chairs on the balconies and a terrace to enjoy the wonderful views from. We offer a free tea and coffee facility with cookies and a self-service mini bar.
My wife, Lisa and I look forward to personally welcoming you to Haus Hepi to share our little corner of paradise in Obertraun. We settled here from England in 2003 where I was an executive chef and Lisa a catering manager. We love to welcome guests from all over the world and enjoy conversing with them, mostly over travel experiences. We are able to share with you our extensive knowledge of the region gained over the past 16 years running our B&B. Our particular interests are, hiking, biking, skiing and of course, good food!
Guests love our neighbourhood as it is very convenient if you don't have a car. The bus stop and train station to Hallstatt & the cablecar are only a 5 minute walk from Haus Hepi and restaurants and the lakeside just under 10 mins! However, guests most love the view of the mountains from Haus Hepi, the peace and tranquility being located on the edge of the forest.
