"Gezellig" in Dutch is also generally considered untranslatable, at least into English.

In French, you'd probably use "sociable, familier, intime, plaisant, confortable, douillet, agreable". The expression "Het is hier gezellig" would be translated as "on est bien ici" but I'm not sure it covers the entire meaning.
I've never been able to find a nice, single-word English translation for it. |

You did, although that's the old spelling (you've heard of the spelling reform from 1998?) – the new spelling is "Schloss". |
