The Alpenhof

Great location, old school alpine ski vibe. Cowboy Coffee on site is a great addition.

Location, Staff, and Cowboy Coffee

The most charming and wonderful place to stay
I can't wait to return and stay for at least a week.

Loved the location and staff

Location

This was a grand expenditure in the heart of Teton village. The food reminded me of the cuisine my Austrian aunt used to make back home. What a great place. Their portions are as big as your head and do not lack in flavor. The service is astute, I would liken it to the great service at the nearby Mangy Moose. Might I say this is in competition for best Teton village restaurant? The mangy moose is still top tier, but the alpenhof is worth your Benjamins if you have them.

This restaurant has been a family favourite for 30+ years, with their fondue being the highlight.

Unfortunately our dinner experience was so poor that we will not be returning.

The Fondue was… not a fondue. It tasted like it had been reconstituted from a freeze dried, long life army ration bag.

What has happened?

Our table remained uncleared to the end of the meal. We were one of 2 tables in the restaurant, so it was not a busy evening.

Honestly, we couldn’t be more disappointed.

Not only was the food poor, but the hotel looks like it needs a huge investment to bring it back to life.

With such a great location, you’d expect it to be buzzing, yet it was so quiet, a rolling tumble weed would not have been out of place.

I guess we did not get the memo that the once-lovely Alpenhof has lost its way.

In dire need to updating. The outside looks charming in an Alps kind of way but the interior, halls and our room were depressing and worn. Our rooms smell musty which we shared with the front desk staff but no other rooms were available. Fortunately, we only stayed in the room to sleep but had to leave the slider open and run the AC Fan (had to move the table in the room to access it) at night in order to keep the room air fresh and it was about 35 degrees out that night. It's not inexpensive, but it should be. Oh, and we had no view. Close to the entrance to the park, so that was good.

Although the hotel is dated, we felt that’s what gives it character. It’s like staying in old Europe/Austria. We loved our stay. Service by Lydia and Alexia was wonderful. And being immediately adjacent to the Jackson Hole tram and ski lifts was excellent. Lots of great restaurants in Teton Village, including the Tram Grill itself. Mandzy and Norma-Jean were excellent servers there. We’ll be back to do Jackson Hole again at the Alpenhof.

No!

This hotel looks way better from the outside. The inside furnishings and bedding and bathrooms are clean but somewhat out of date. The carpets are disgusting throughout the hotel and it was challenging to let our grandkids go around with bare feet. The rooms do not have microwaves, so our plan for dinner was shot. We had to microwave our meals down in one little microwave just off the lobby. They said the pool was open but then there was a sign that said it was not. The hot tub was fine though.

Everything was great

We booked this stay early Oct to see the fall colors. We choose Alpenhof so we could have German beer and food. When we checked in we were told the kitchen was closed for the season. No food or drink was available on site. They apparently are closed Oct and Nov and reopen in Dec for ski season. But they close the bar and kitchen weeks before they stop selling room accommodations. Very disappointed. Would not have booked this hotel had I known that.

Clean snd quiet.

I think the property will be awesome once the updates are completed.

A little old but well maintained. Parking lot is a short walk from the hotel, would be a hassle if it rains.
No breakfast

Properly is old and it is shows its age. Staff was excellent and it was clean. Multiple room issues. TV was old and often remote did not work and it kept losing its signal. Small bathroom. Very dated decor and my room was very noisy, there was a garage under it that started to be opened and closed at 6:30 am.
