Comfortable stay in a lovely town!

Hotel Sonne is a comfortable hotel right in the center of Lienz, a quick walk from the train and bus stations. The interior of the building itself is definitely dated and a bit austere, but that really didn’t impact my stay. My room was comfortable and had a fantastic view of the mountains. The breakfast options were great, and I appreciated that breakfast itself started at 6:00 (I’m an early riser). The staff were friendly and accommodating. I didn’t have time to try the sauna or the gym, but I’m glad they were included. The price was fair and good value.

Should have stayed elsewhere.

What a disappointment. The hotel is undergoing renovations. They did not mention this on the booking site. Roof top bar not available. Outside seating in the middle of construction. Condition of hotel appalling. The staff were lovely and room was clean but very tired dated with no appeal.

The hotel is very rundown. The blinds in the room didn’t work properly. The windows were dirty. The bathroom fixtures were old and stained. The rugs were stained, worn out and not vacuumed. The only good thing to say was that the evening receptionist was very friendly, and the breakfast was good. We cannot recommend this hotel and suggest staying elsewhere. We cannot recommend staying here

Abbiamo scelto l'Hotel Sonne come base per una tre giorni sulla neve ed ha assolto il compito perfettamente. Camera grande, parcheggio coperto (pagamento a parte) con accesso diretto ai piani, palestra, sauna, colazione: tutto quello che serviva per mantenerci in tiro. Alla reception, poi, trovi una gentile signora che parla italiano e che ti da tutte le indicazioni che desideri e che dimostra ciò che conferma che Lienz è una città a vocazione turistica dove ognuno si può sentire a casa.

Wir haben eine Nacht im Hotel verbracht und uns insgesamt wohlgefühlt. Das Hotel ist zwar etwas in die Jahre gekommen, bietet aber eine angenehme Atmosphäre. Besonders positiv hervorheben möchten wir den kostenfreien Tiefgaragenparkplatz für Motorradfahrer – eine tolle Dienstleistung! Auch das Personal war durchweg sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Frühstücksbuffet war reichhaltig und bot eine gute Auswahl. Unser Zimmer war geräumig, aber leider ohne Klimaanlage. An warmen Tagen wäre ein Ventilator sehr hilfreich gewesen. Wir hatten ein Zimmer zum Johannesplatz, der abends gut besucht ist – entsprechend war es etwas lauter, was man bei der Lage aber einplanen kann. Trotz kleinerer Punkte hatten wir einen guten Aufenthalt und werden das Hotel bei einer nächsten Reise in der Region gerne wieder berücksichtigen.
