Hotel Salzburger Hof

Booked through crystal ski in their summit series and the hotel and resort didn’t disappoint; hotel room small but adequate for all our ski gear , beds comfortable and room very clean,breakfast was plentiful with a enormous choice,evening meal even better ie 5 courses of exceptional quality food,all staff professional and friendly, ritz bar top quality cocktails at a reasonable cost,hope to return next year,

We stayed as a family ( teens) to ski. Good points - it’s close to the main lift ( 4/5mins walk ). You can also rent ski lockers at the lift ( the hotel storage is not very secure as it’s just a big room that anyone can access with any room key). Food for adults was really exceptional. Rooms were like a thousand Austrian/ German hotel rooms anywhere ( do they come as a prefab with carpets included ??). But they were fine. Spa was nice and never seemed too busy. Bar was nice and service very good. Games room for kids was a hit although you can imagine how busy it was in half term week. Bad points- it was extremely noisy at night with a nightclub basically next door and people yelling outside until the early hours. Bring earplugs and resign yourself to sleeping with the window closed or ask for a room away from the Silver Bullet. Towels were tiny and housekeeping a bit random although rooms were initially clean. There was a no shorts dress code in the evening, which annoyed my son intensely as he only wears shorts ( and I had only packed shorts and ski trousers) so the overly officious hotel restaurant maitre d’ who tried to send him back to his room to change had to content himself with disapproving looks all week - after I refused to spend my skiing holiday shopping for some trousers for him so he could attend dinner, as was requested. Bare legs for girls were fine apparently, but not for boys🤷‍♀️. Gym ( as so many hotel gyms ) was poor. One treadmill and a queue of people waiting to use it. Parking - the hotel says it has parking, but it has 5/6 spaces total. So no chance you will be get one unless you arrive at lunchtime! However you can park for free at the ski lift. Would be nice if the hotel told you this up front, rather than just say vaguely ‘ parking is first come first served but there is plenty around’. There is if you know where to look but when you turn up late in the evening, you don’t really want to drive around for an hour looking!!

Vast place but great experience: lovely friendly vib, excellent food with reasonable variety and helpful staff. I had a spacious room but others I saw were very small. Location is also great, probably one of the closest hotels to the ski lifts. If I have one criticism it would be how close the tables in the dining room are to one another. There were unoccupied tables close to us yet we were sitting next to people at either side.

Had a fabulous Christmas in the hotel! Food was delicious with good choice for vegetarian! Hotel staff were super attentive in restaurants and in room cleaning! Rooms were clean and showers were super powerful! We all enjoyed the facilities

We went here for dinner with a family. 40 euros per person and little kids for free. For a 5 course dinner, with a great buffet and several main courses to choose from. Besides very friendly service l. The hotel has a great atmosphere with live music and a playing corner for kids with loads of toys. A special experience in a special place.

Everything you would want a ski and leisure hotel to be - good service, attentive staff, food good, great rooms and spa, nice spaces and ambience EXCEPT terrible band in the evening. The same band in the bar most evenings pushing out loud, very loud, classics, with no tempering of volume. They were obviously appreciated by some, but so many people disappeared after dinner it couldn’t be everyone liked them. And every evening? And by the way, at tea time the musac was also loud, Blume controlled by the barman.

I have stayed here many times, and had a drink in the old bar many more. It has an old fashioned style, as do its various rooms, which feels just right in this ski resort which was once the most fashionable in Europe (see my travel article in the Daily Telegraph.) However, the iconic photos on the wall aren't only of past guests. I walked out of the bathroom where there is a photo of a Four Weddings And A Funeral-era Hugh Grant, to bump into present day Hugh Grant in the bar just afterwards!

We had a week family holiday staying at the hotel at Christmas 2022. The hotel was excellent, in particular the spa facilities and restaurant. It is not the cheapest but we felt that it was actually good value for money and worth the cost. The service overall was excellent. All staff were very friendly and spoke English (in fact everything was bilingual). We had rooms close to reception and although there was some occasional corridor noise from passing guests, this wasn't an issue. The rooms were spacious and well equipped and the beds were very comfortable. The hotel is split across different buildings and several floors, but it was easy to get around with several lifts. There were 2 spa areas (one for over 16s only). They were both very good, spotless and very relaxing spaces and great to use after skiing. The pool was not designed for fitness swimming though. We had a half board deal. Breakfast was a substantial buffet with a full range of options. Dinner was 5 courses, with a buffet for appetizers and the rest was waiter served with a choice of mains. The quality was excellent and we were allocated the same table for each day in a quiet area. Our waiter (Goran) was brilliant and always made us feel welcome. One comment was that water is not provided at dinner and was expensive (so we took our own). The hotel is a short flat walk (c 5 mins) from the ski lift. We used the ski hire and store next to the lift which meant we didn't have to carry the equipment and there is a supermarket only a short walk further. We enjoyed our stay so much we are already thinking of returning.

Noisy evenings ended with thieves steeling ski boots in a ski boot room, allegedly secured with CCTV. However reception staff was unable to help and/ check CCTV. If you cherish your possessions a d want a safe and peaceful hotel look somewhere else.
