Pension Hannes

The Hotel Hannes is a family run hotel and we were made welcome from the moment we arrived. Our room was comfortable, quite spacious and warm, it had a balcony with table and two chairs, and enough storage space, also TV and a safe. The en-suite bathroom had a shower but I believe some rooms have a bath. Room and bathroom were clean and serviced daily except Sunday. We found on a couple of occasions it took a while for hot water to come through, but it was ok most of the time. As Hannes explained, the water has a long way to come from the boiler, so let it run and it does get there! Guests are allocated their places in the very pleasant restaurant for the week. There was plenty of choice at breakfast, which I think would satisfy most people. For dinner, main courses are chosen daily at breakfast, and service commences at 6.30pm. This is a fixed time (apart from your arrival day, when dinner is served when you get there if later in the evening ) but means everyone is there together and this created a nice atmosphere. Food was simple but good and service was excellent. The hotel also has a bar and a small lounge which we enjoyed. Bar prices were very reasonable. Other facilities are a lift, boot and ski rooms in the basement (ski room accessed from outside), also a sauna though we didn’t use that so can’t comment on it. Hannes and his mother Regina are the front of house team and are excellent hosts, both speak English and they create a friendly ambience which we really appreciated. The location is good, just across the road from the Ungnaden drag lift, from the top of which you can ski to the main lifts. It’s also well placed for the ski bus to Oberau and Auffach, and only a few minutes walk to the village centre. Overall a very enjoyable stay and very good value for money too.

great little ski village , our hotel was family run and we loved it !!!! accommodation basic but clean and warm. food was also very simple but we enjoyed it every day , we had a choice of two dish each day which made the whole process of eating easy and we really looked forward to our evening meal , the staff were very friendly especially a cute waiter called Fin !!! The dining room was small which meant the guest could easily interact and we became one big family .Nights were spent chatting to the owner , staff and other residents before we left for the only bar open !! The Irish bar and Cave Bar again making it very easy on were we should go . No queues any where !! just fabulous . The ski slopes great for beginners and intermediates, easy to get to other towns too . Not suitable for people wanting a wild time thou , but if your the only gang there it makes you very popular !!! enjoy , we did
