After an enforced sabbatical (CoVID) we were finally able to return to beautiful, charming Alpbach. It is hard to explain how and why Alpbach has become a special place for us, put simply it’s lovely. We stayed in the Haus Sonnwend wonderfully hosted by Brigette and Sophie (Sofie). The guesthouse was, for us, perfect. It is in impeccable condition, spotless and homely. Our room was well catered for with comfortable beds, great shower and a huge balcony where I could sit with my first coffee of the day and breathe in that lovely mountain air. Each room has it’s own kettle and coffee machine and a range of coffee blend pods and tea bags are left at the bottom of the stairs for guests to choose from. A smart TV is also provided but, to be honest, ours was never turned on other than to check it out. We hired skis from a ski hire shop literally across the quiet street and stored them in the Haus Sonnwend ski storage and heated boot room. Should you fancy a little beverage after a day’s skiing, there’s an honesty bar beside the ski room and you can sip your choice of libation sitting on the comfortable veranda looking out towards the snow covered mountains. There is very little noise at all other the church bells ringing each morning which brings a wonderful warmth to village life. Alpbach, please don’t change. There are many fabulous restaurants close by but our personal favourites include the Postalm (a charming village bar/restaurant) and the Alphof (a hotel a little further up the hill). Finally we wish Brigette and Sophie (Sofie) continued success and we hope to return in Feb 23.

This is an excellent hotel at a great value price. Food was brilliant, breakfast always on form, afternoon tea much better than I've had elsewhere and dinner was ample but fine dining. Sometimes it took a while to get served between courses but the service is good. The spa was really fantastic although the outside pool wasn't always heated enough. The hotel put on special treatments in the saunas which are great fun and interesting although to get the most you will need to understand German. Well worth attending. 10 Euro pp wine tasting one evening was a real treat and Ludwig was fantastic. Very memorable. The staff service was excellent but they charge for tap water at dinner which really annoyed our group. Whilst it's small change, it's the principle. It's also unfair that in a group of 4 (two couples), one of the couples is charged, not the other. It just doesn't work and is ethically not right when we can take it from the taps ourselves. The standard rooms are absolutely awful - do not book or you will regret it. However they do have the best views. The romantik comfort room however is incredible and well worth the upgrade money. Just such a shame the standard is one of the worst rooms I've ever seen, and that includes some 2* chalets! One of the couples in our group was deeply disappointed to see the disparity in quality. This hotel is 1 min walk up a hill to the bus stop and buses come regularly although.l beware they don't return regularly in the middle of the day. Alpbach is beautiful and I suspect this may be one of the best hotels. Quite a find despite a few downsides that we'd just avoid in future.

Just one day after returning home, we miss the beautiful, so hospitable Hotel Hoppet in the Zillertal. Even the arrival was very friendly and completely stress-free, despite the large amount of luggage, which is what skiing is all about. We were completely thrilled by the first buffet for dinner. We and our friends who traveled with us were very impressed by the excellent quality of the food and the creativity of the cooking team. (Respect) this expectation was met at breakfast and the rest of the week by far. You don't need to mention that the connection to the ski areas is simply ideal and after a few laps in the hotel's own swimming pool, with a view of the mountains and the fantastic breakfast, the path is quickly mastered. We would like to thank you once again for your efforts and are already looking forward to our next stay in your house.

It was exactly what we needed for a relaxing stay. From my point of view the hotel standards are above the rated 3 stars. SPA: The hotel provides a nice SPA with 3 type of sauna, and ice machine to accomplish a great sauna session. Parking: Underground parking is provided for free! Breakfast: Delicious breakfast including the most important dishes. Rooms: There are two type of rooms, renovated and bigger and a little smaller but still in good conditions. Lobby: There is also a small lobby bar where you can enjoy some great snaps and wine. We will definitely return here!
