Alpenaussicht

Ligging heel goed , kamers redelijk ok, ontbijt basic, vermijd de vraag naar een andere bereiding ( spiegelei of omelet) bv niet mogelijk en avondeten ronduit slecht geen bediening aan tafel en alles platgekookt en uitgedroogd , gelukkig enkel vriendelijk personeel maar de eigenaars echt niet klantvriendelijk . Om 20 u werden we verzocht om het restaurant te verlaten sfeer en gezelligheid onbestaand Sauna en skiraum was goed

We visited the Hotel Alpenaussicht two years ago and liked it and Obergurgl so much, we went back. The hotel has been completely renovated with a new bar and restaurant area which are very smart. The bar is delightful with comfy chairs and great views. What we didn't like so much is the buffet service for the main course. Happy to have a buffet for salads, starters and soup but the main course would have been better served nicely on a plate and correctly garnished. Generally the food was warm rather than hot and although reasonably tasty, it didn't look very appetising. The staff are delightful and very helpful, the rooms are generally spacious and the shower was excellent The location is ideal as it is a very short walk to the drag lift which then leads to the Festkogelbahm cable car.

We stayed here for a week with 3 families (10 people) across 4 rooms for a ski holiday. The short version is that this family-owned hotel tries hard and seems to invest in the property, but is some way off a 4 star experience which is what they market themselves at. Hence only a three star review and I think the family has a choice: take off a star, invest, or just experience the regular disappointed review (overall the hotel was full and hence they seem to be doing something right at the current price point) Location and ski-ing: The location is great and very close to the lifts and a bus station. The boot room of the hotel is a bit cosy and small, but overall from a ski-ing experience perspective, the hotel is ideally located (sometimes the wait for the bus can be a bit long) Hotel facilities and staff: The reception and bar area seems to have been recently refurbished and looks very nice. The Spa/Sauna is very decent although doesn't have a pool and no massages. There have been comments from prior visitors on the friendliness of staff. I didn't observe this and found them attentive and service oriented (all our requests were generally quickly sorted). The problem is however simple: there are not enough of them. This hotel tries to run with a minimum amount of staff which means you only have a restaurant buffet service and when the restaurant is open, the bar is generally not staffed and you can wait a long time to find someone (similar situation with reception). This hotel can do with a couple more staff to get the responsiveness up Restaurant/food: Some reviewers have described the restaurant as a high-end canteen, and that is probably a fair description. The owner is the main chef, and to his credit, a lot of the food coming out of the kitchen is quite tasty and cooked well. We also had a New Year's dinner at the hotel, which was done quite nicely given the amount of people. Where this place falls down is that a) it is a 4 star hotel and you simply can't get away with running a buffet only restaurant, b) the menu consists of a choice of three main courses and c) the restaurant runs a service between 6.00pm and 8.30pm (latest 'sitting' at 7.30pm). So effectively, if you come up to the buffet after 7.30pm, you are not guaranteed a full meal. Plus you have to flag your preferred choice in the morning - this is done to minimise food wastage which is a good thing, but having to decide in the morning what you want to eat at night doesn't exactly give you a nice holiday feeling. And while some food is quite tasty, if you don't like any of the three options, that's it... Rooms: We had a couple rooms in the main building (1st floor) which seems they had been refurbed and a couple of rooms in the lower building ('floor 6' at the bottom of the hotel) which were older. The rooms are spacious and clean. Shower pressure is good, water is hot. Sufficient storage space for clothes. And plenty of TV channels for different languages. That is however w

stayed for 2 nights in july. very friendly hosts/owners helping out with all requests (tour planning, booking etc.) quickly. single room was large and very clean. location is central and thus perfect for hiking. highly recommended for stays in obergurgl.

Lovely, well run family owned hotel. Great location for access to the slopes, via button lift across the road or frequent ski bus. Room was good, everything worked and was serviced daily. Ski room excellent, with room allocated lockers and heated book warmers. Access to outside well planned. Food was very good. Amazing breakfast selection, and a choice of three main courses each evening for dinner. Buffet style salad bar in the evening which was great and a piping hot soup course offered too. Staff generally warm and friendly, super efficient service. Spa facilities good, sauna, steam room and rest area. Lovely selection of herbal teas and different flavoured water provided. Bar area very pleasant, but not staffed in the afternoon, which I assume is because they assume everyone will ski all day. If you like a cuppa before the bar opens, then take a travel kettle.

We have just returned from a week's holiday as a party of three couples and had a very enjoyable stay. We found the hotel very comfortably with roomy bedrooms with comfortable beds , plenty of storage, modern bathrooms with an abundance of hot water, rooms cleaned daily. The food was varied well presented and very nice, both breakfasts and evening meals had plenty of choice. The drinks were a competitive price although we took our own tap water to the table to avoid paying for this. Staff were helpful and pleasant. The boot room was great with lockers and heated boot warmers, easy access straight outside, near to the slopes or nearby bus stop with free ski buses to take you to other gondolas further afield. We also enjoyed using the saunas and steam rooms , we used a towel to cover our modesty ,whilst other guests choose to be nude there was never a problem. We enjoyed Obergurgl and surrounding areas for skiing with some nice bars and restaurants. Would not hesitate in returning and can recommend this family run hotel.
