“Great Memories of St Gilgen Village Apartment”
Reviewed 13 Jan 2012
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this apartment. We lived there for 3 months and I really enjoyed it. It's modern yet cosy and perfect for a small family (we were 2 adults and a toddler). Every kind of kitchen utensil you would need is there, modern appliances and even cook books! (if you're into that sort of thing). The living room has lovely big leather sofas and a flat screen TV...even tonnes of english dvds to watch! The apartment is located slap bang in the centre of St Gilgen. The apartment block even has a "Schlecker" downstairs...a shop which sells everything from Cosmetics to coffee milk. There is also an organic bakery 10 steps from the apartment and a small spar, 5 mins walk away. Speaking of walks, in St Gilgen you have a choice of 2 fabulous walks either side of the lake...both with breathtaking views (see the pics) and fabulous for an early morning jog/walk (again if you're into that sort of thing!). The only down sides for me was that the communal washing machine didn't seem to work properly and if you didn't put enough money in, it would stop mid cycle...but I'm sure it has been fixed since then (this was Jan - March 2010). For people with reduced mobility, there are 3 small flights of stairs and no lift (but you have a nicer view). The parking is also down the road a bit. But other than these minor things I would highly recommend it and the owners are very friendly and helpful.
