Alpenland St Johann

The village- city of St. Johann Im Pongau is absolutely gorgeous. Our family enjoyed the cleanliness, and genuine kindness of the town's business owners and workers. It's the perfect place of you enjoy being away from busy city life. The facility itself is extremely comfortable and clean, although dated. It's location is convenient! Right next to a grocery store with clothing shops and several restaurants. The grocery sells fresh bread daily too at very reasonable cost. Staff at Alpenland Sporthotel, including restaurant, cleaning crew are also courteous, helpful. Very patient with our attempts to speak the language. Spa and gym were reviewed well (clean, good aesthetics) by my older teen. This location is within one hour, easy drive to Salzburg and other quaint towns Hallstat and Mattsee (Ferdinand Porsche museum).

Es sind alte Zimmere und das Fenster war defekt, was im April im kalten Wetter sehr ungünstig ist. Daraufhin bekamen wir ein neues Zimmer mit einere defekten Steckdose. Sehr altmodische Zimmer, vor allem das Badezimmer. Es hat sehr viele Kinder, daher konnten wir den Wellnessbereich nicht geniessen. Das Essen war gut, aber nicht überragend. Für eine Nebensaison ist es auch sehr teuer und die gleichen Preise wie in der Saison. Gewerbt wird mit viel Aktivitäten rund um das Hotel. Was jedoch nicht geschrieben wird das rund um das Hotel eine Stunde Auto fahrt bedeutet und das alle Aktivitäten im April nicht geöffnet haben und auch die Zugkarte erst im Mai erhältich ist und man eigentlich im April gar nichts machen kann. Im Allgemeinen haben wir viel mehr erwartet, da allgemein auf der Website alles viel schöner dargestellrt wird und gewerbt, was in Wirklichkeit nicht ist.

The warm welcome you receive from Robert, Peter and his team is always amazing. Just a 30 minute transfer from Salzburg and you can be skiiing by 1pm from London. The rooms have stunning views, refurbished bathrooms and the pool and spa are great. The breakfast room is light, airey and caters to everyones needs and the Stube restaurant serves fantastic traditional Austrian food.

Just returned with my family from a week’s stay at the Alpenland Hotel in Sankt Johann. The hotel is great with a mix of traditional and modern and the staff are all very friendly and helpful. Nothing is too much trouble for them. The food is fabulous and the leisure facilities are great. The location in the town centre of Sankt Johann could not be better and is perfect for shops, cafes bus and train connections. The Alpendorf Gondela Station is only a 5 minute journey by hotel shuttle connecting to the Ski Amade area, and it's only 50 minute transfer from Salzburg Airport by road. All on all a great .place to stay

Such a lovely, family oriented hotel. This is the second time we’ve been and we plan to go back next year too. Hotel rooms could do with a bit of an upgrade, but the cleanliness and service were excellent. Food very good value and so obliging regarding dietary requirements. Ski facilities excellent despite no snow since December, particularly for beginners and children. Apres ski on the premises and very enjoyable.

We had a two-night stay at the Alpenland St Johann hotel. Our main reasons for staying here were easy access to Burg Hohenwerfen and also the Liechtensteinklamm gorge. We walked from the station to the hotel (as the distance was quite short), but it was slightly uphill so it would have been better to either wait for the bus or get a taxi. The Alpenland is large hotel, but August must have been out of season as a lot of facilities were not operational. We booked a family room, but ended up with two linked rooms which was brilliant – my son’s room has a decent kitchenette and a dining table. As we had two rooms we ended up with two sets of Nespresso capsules (that kept me very happy). There was nice views from the room balcony. There is a large (for a hotel) swimming pool with plenty of outside seating. Sauna area was not so good, I tried it once but it was not relaxing. There is also a gym, but I did not try this out. Breakfast was very average (we were probably spoiled by excellent breakfast in our two previous hotels). We were half-board; evening meals were OK, but there are several restaurants within a short walk of the hotel and these may have been a better option if not on a tight budget. There are a few supermarkets just meters away (from where we purchased lunchtime snacks); but could also have been used for getting whatever you needed for self-catering. For great ice-creams, we would recommend J&D Coffee company which is between the hotel and the shopping center. Local guest card provide free local transport to the railway station (great for trips to Saltzburg, Burg Hohenwerfen and also Bad Gastein) and also locally to the Liechtensteinklamm gorge – both buses running hourly.
