Pros:

Es war im allgemeinen sehr git. Tolle Lage. Toller Wellnessbereich.

Cons:

Aber bei den Mahlzeiten hat man schon deutlich gemerkt, dass es das letzte Öffnungswochende war.
Wobei ich natürlich denke, dass ihr euch alle die freie Zeit redlich verdient habt!
Also es soll keine riesige Kritik sein, nur als kleine Anmerkung

Enjoyable stay
Pros:

Staff are kind and helpful. Plenty of facilities compared to other hotels in the area. Good food, lots of options. Cosy rooms with interesting layout. Very soft beds.

Cons:

Ski room is basic and lacked boot drying facilities (floor also slippery... I slid and hurt my wrist). Pool area wasn't so clean, even first thing in the morning.

Pros:

Location is amazing. Right by the lift with ski hire shop in building.
The half board is excellent and quality of food despite how busy they are is really excellent
Staff were fab and really nice.
Pool area is great - quite a few Brits there but seems to attract a nice crowd
Kid friendly - I think Easter week if I didn't have kids I might find it a bit too family friendly (but really if you don't have kids surely you go skiing in March or January)
Given it is half board and this is Austria it didn't seem too expensive.
Go to the skiddoo restaurant for lunch (and go early at like 11.45 must book this for an amazing experience)

Cons:

Would be nice to have water on tables for dinner and not be charged 4.50 euro for.each small bottle.

Чудовий готель з мега зручним розташуванням та ідеальним адмініструванням!
Pros:

Дуже смачна та вишукана кухня. Різноманітний шведський стіл. Великий плюс - це столик в ресторані з вашим номером.
Сподобалась організація лижної кімнати. Ваше спорядження зберігається в комірках згідно номеру готелю. Особливої вдячності заслуговує розташування підземного паркінгу та лижної кімнати з виходом підземним до фунікулера. Це мега зручно!
Дуже позитивний і ввічливий персонал, який детально та щиро все роз'яснює.
Окремого позитивного відгуку заслуговує СПА! Після катання на лижах ваше тіло швидко відновлюється у басейні з гідромасажем та саунах.
Навпроти рецепції готелю чудовий міні супермаркет зі всім необхідним та хорошою ціновою політикою.

Cons:

Вікна нашого номеру були над басейном СПА. Гомін та шум не давав заснути...

Gutes Hotel mit kleinen Schwächen
Pros:

Alles sehr zentral gelegen vom Skifepot, Skiverleih bis zur Gondel, ein richtiger Mehrwert

Cons:

Die Zimmer könnten etwas liebevoller eingerichtet sein, die Bar im Nachbargebäude könnte besser genutzt werden, da hier nicht viel los ist. Ein abschließbares Skidepot wäre ein Traum.
Im Restaurant könnte das Flair etwas gemütlicher gestaltet sein, so dass man nicht so offen sitzt.
