We made an appointment for Tuesday 29 July 2014 2 weeks before that date... We sent e-mails, but there were no replies from them... So we made a phone call... (Lucky me I can speak some German) A friendly man picked up the phone, and he told me that it was not necessary to pay anything in advance.
He confirmed on the phone that there was a place for us, and even that it was safe to park our motorbike. At Tuesday 29 July we left with the motorbike in the early morning in Belgium... It was raining cat's and dogs that day... we've got delays due thunderstorms and lightning and heavy showers... We arrived in Hallstatt at 9 PM in the evening... exhausted and tired.
And guess what ???? Gasthaus Mühle was closed... !!!! it was their weekly closing day... !!!!
( U don't find anything on internet about a closing day at all)
Hallstatt is a very popular and touristic place... and another place to sleep was hard to find so late in the evening, not nearby and very very expensive... (Coz' it was already quiet late as well, and we looked terrible in our wet motorbike-dress)
Bad experience with Gasthaus Mühle. I don't understand how such people can run a Guesthouse.
