This is a great hinterland hotel, very charming and well kept! Our room was spacious, clean and comfortable. The room decor is a bit old-fashioned and traditional, as seen on the photos, but it gives off a charming vibe. Hotel restaurant is beautiful and the breakfast we had was really good! The entire hotel area is peaceful, views of lush greenery and mountains are amazing and the outdoor hotel area is perfect for a relaxing experience. The location is great for exploring the trails and nearby walking paths and also close driving distance to grocery shop, lake, beach and Klagenfurt centre. The staff is very helpful and friendly, they have made our stay even more pleasant! We would love to stay here again.

It offers hot thermal springs, beautiful beaches and extensive cycling paths, all surrounded by picture-perfect alpine scenery. Wörthersee is abundant with culture, nature, history, and charming townships.

The region is a popular tourist destination in the summer, due to the Mediterranean climate and warm waters.

For the auto enthusiast, the largest Volkswagen and Audi car show in Europe is held in Reifnitz every year, usually in May.

Pörtshach am Wörthersee, situated on the northern shores of Lake Wörth, has attractions such as Werzer Arena and Burgruine Leonstein Castle.

Velden am Wörthersee
Scored out of 10, guest rating 9.0
Wonderful - What previous guests thought, 973 reviews
We booked this place on Airbnb, guided only by the reviews. I didn’t actually read them. I just looked at the pictures of the room. The price, I’d say, was the best value of anything on the entire lake. It was the only place that really seemed to be on the lake, where you could actually do things on the lake, not just look at it. A lot of places you couldn’t even go in the water—no lake access, or maybe just sunbathing. It’s clear a lot of love went into this place when it was built. The whole property is very thoughtfully developed. There’s a distinct yellow and blue color theme throughout—stickers, signage, even the color of the boats. Even the e-bike charger in the bike room was yellow and blue. Yeah, they have a charging station for e-bikes. The umbrellas are yellow. The chairs are blue. There are tons of different room layouts, spread across lots of buildings. We were fortunate—I’d say we had one of the best rooms. It was a little studio layout with a small kitchen. The kitchen was simple but functional. Our studio had doors that opened onto a terrace, fully enclosed by dense ivy—looked like ivy, anyway. From the terrace, you could see out to the lake. And beyond that, the mountains. On the other side? Slovenia. Bathroom was complete—modern and all in one room. Kitchen looked brand new. There’s an espresso machine, but note: you might want to bring some favorite things from home—aluminum foil, plastic zip bags, salt, pepper, spices, etc. They also provided a nice little bottle of champagne (sect), dish soap, and some kitchen supplies. Our room was right near the sauna area—almost part of it. There was a sauna, showers, a small pool to relax in. A tiny fitness area—enough to get the job done. A breakfast buffet was not included—eggs, bacon (crispy, good). They also had: Table tenni, Boats, A DVD collection you could borrow - DVD player in the room.

Our stay at Balance Spa and Hotel was heartfelt and truly special. The hotel is very family-oriented, and the staff make you feel genuinely known and cared for. They even surprised us with a special gluten-free birthday cake for our daughter, which meant a lot to us. The food was absolutely outstanding—gourmet-level, delicious, and made with so much heart. Every meal reflected the care and talent of Andrea Grossman, whose cooking is simply incredible and full of thoughtful touches. The sauna experience was another highlight, especially the Soul Aufguss led by Carmen. She created a beautiful, moving atmosphere and even sang during the Aufguss, which we really loved. She also prepared a special cream for us to use between sessions—a lovely detail. The room was comfortable, and the cleaning staff were exceptionally friendly and warm. Overall, Balance Spa and Hotel is a place where you feel personally cared for in every detail.

The hotel is excellent, beautifully furnished, exceptionally large rooms with a spacious bathroom and lovely balcony right in the heart of Velden. The spa is very nice and the breakfast was tasty with a wide range of options available. The restaurant is very good and we ate lunch and dinner there also and it was very good. We also took advantage of the free bicycle option and cycled all the way around Lake Worthersee, a very nice trip. Expensive but standard for the location. We didn't use the lake access but were given passes if we had wanted to do so.

We caught the train from Pritswich to Portschach which was a very short journey. Their timetables at the station/collection points are so easy to understand. Portschach is a very picturesque place. The houses looked very clean adorned with flowers, very tidy streets. People are very friendly and the majority spoke English. The food was delicious especially the cakes. There was a park area which took you down to the lake. Also a play area for children. We caught the ferry over to Maria Worth and then later, travelled by ferry to Velden.

This was possibly the most relaxing break ever.

This was possibly the most relaxing break ever. There is little else here except the fabulous Hotel Linde (and Vivamayr - a detox hotel where celebrities go). The situation right on the lake meant stunning views from the breakfast room and terrace; from the Seebar (Lakeside Bar and Restaurant); and from our balcony. Swimming in the clear water of the lake is a must. The food is exceptional with sushi and sashimi a speciality. The staff too are exceptional and couldn't do enough for us. A two-minute walk brings you to the landing stage of the ferries which ply up and down the lake during the day offering a hop on hop off service for 19 euros per person. Since we were staying at the hotel for 4 nights we got a 50% discount. For Gustav Mahler fans, another must is a visit to his composing hut, where a very knowledgeable curator will give you a detailed history in German or English. An absolutely stunning experience!

Velden am Wörthersee is a captivating gem, easily my favorite lake destination in Austria alongside the charming Klopeiner See. Just a three-hour drive from Vienna, its accessibility makes it a perfect escape for a weekend or longer. The region radiates vitality, with its sparkling lake inviting swimming and water activities, framed by a picturesque backdrop that feels both serene and vibrant. The restaurants and bars here are a delight, offering a rich tapestry of flavors and atmospheres, from cozy lakeside eateries to lively spots buzzing with energy. Whether it’s savoring a meal with a view or enjoying the warm, welcoming vibe of the town, Velden delivers an all-around exceptional experience that feels like summer distilled into a single place.

Sadly our hotel could not offer an evening meal as they had a group staying, but there are some excellent restaurants in the town: Pörtschacher Stüble, Sissi’s, Werzers Bootshaus (newly opened in May 2025) and Little Italy were our favourites. The young waitress in Little Italy was a lesson in how to wait at tables-such professionalism and always a big smile! We are in our 70s and less mobile than we once were, but getting around was very easy. The ferry runs all day; we spent many happy hours on it. You can buy a day ticket for about 22 euros and can hop on and off. We bought a weekly ticket for 48 euros and got our money’s worth! We loved it so much that I hesitate to tell people about it! Ryanair flies to Klagenfurt twice a week. From there a 15 minute taxi ride brings you to Pörtschach.

Not being too close to Vienna airport I probably should have planned for a couple of nights stay in Vienna either side of the trip, so that the travel to/from Worthersee was not too much of a headache/rush. The train journey was excellent, except, when our initially cancelled and subsequently delayed flight(s) eventually arrived, we had missed the last train, at 7.30pm, and the taxi fare was massive; so we only got to experience the train on the way back. The connections for the train were really good, and the views were amazing. Would recommend, but plan the stay around the travel.
