My brother is looking for a decent hotel in the mountains of Austria on a lake. Any suggestions? Thanks!
Does it have to be Austria? About 30 miles from the Austrian border you have Bled in Slovenia. Most awesome "Lake + Mountains + Castle on island on lake" scenery in Europe IMHO. Have a look at the first pictures in this album and see if he likes it. https://picasaweb.google.com/przemmvv/Slovenia#
Take a look at Zell am See. Near Kitzbuhel & Salzburg. An easy drive from the Munich airport. Just an absolutely lovely area. We've spent a lot of time in this area. Good luck. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zell_am_See
Schloss Velden is not in the mountains! what area does he want to go? Zell am See would be okay - very nice mountains - even summer-ski areas around and a fine place to stay is the http://www.grandhotel-zellamsee.at/de/meta/home/ where our Ferrari Club Austria will ahve a meeting from 16. to 18. september.
