We went to stay last year and were made to feel very welcome. Chrissie the lady who runs the guest house is Austrian and has an english partner so she speaks fluent english. They both had a fantastic sense of humour and made our stay very enjoyable. The rooms are very clean and nicely decorated with affordable prices. We always... More

I stayed with my girlfriend in Pension Ria during the Carintian HalfMarathon, it was a perfect base for us! It is centrally located in Poertschach and it is what we wanted to have: a small guesthouse ran by a lovely family, making you feel at home. The first morning we had to wake up early because of the race and... More

Very handy place to stay if you are interested in... More

For us this place had everything we wanted as a couple. We were looking for a welcoming and relaxing environment, beautiful walking scenery as well as a great lake that is crystal clear AND within a 5 minute stroll. The people who run this place are just lovely, right down to the old English speaking guy from Yorkshire who serves... More

Excellent family owned and run pension where guests are made most welcome. Centrally located close to tennis complex, lake and shopping. We have stayed at this pension on three separate occasions and the service has always been first class.

We´ve stayed here twice and been impressed with the friendliness of the owner/staff, the great service and hospitality, and very convenient location (for us a 2 minute walk to the tennis centre). Breakfast on the terrace in the sun and surrounded by the flowers is a great way to start the day, not to mention the company of the other... More
