Great place to stay when visiting Bad Gastein. Easy to walk to town, thermal pools and the train station. We stayed in October so was very quiet but all the staff are so so friendly. And we woke up to it snowing one of the mornings which was a huge plus for us :-) would defintly stay there again!

Bad Gastein is the most picturesque town I have ever seen. However, if you plan to walk around town to see the beautiful buildings and awesome natural scenery, be prepared for some serious up and down hiking - this town is built on a STEEP mountainside.
Hostel Overview
The hostel is located in an international ski resort, only 10 min from the train station and the Felsenbad (rock spa) with its thermal and mineral springs. The ski resort offers 250 km of slopes, 50 lifts, 90 km of cross country tracks, 3 ski schools and fabulous routes for ski hiking. Summer attractions range from river rafting, canyoning, mountain biking and climbing to golf. More highlights: salt mine in Hallein, Eisriesenwelt Werfen (large ice cave system), Krimmler Falls and of course Salzburg, home of Mozart.Bad-Gastein: Fire & Ice - hot thermal and mineral spring in the rock spa and spa hotel as well as ski fun!
