Hotel Sonnblick - Kaprun, Austria 

My wife and I recently stayed at this hotel in Kaprun, Austria. We stayed for a week from the 16th Feb 08. We are regular Skiiers and would put this hotel as one the top of places we have stayed simply because the staff couldnt do enough to help, were proffessional and exceeded expectations on every level. Lets make sure this is in perspective, this is a Ski resort hotel and they differ, so when it says four star it takes into account the facilities. These arent hotels like you get overlooking hyde park in London. Anyone who knows ski hotels will know what I mean and would like this hotel very much. It is clean and the decor is typically Austrian. The food is something else at this place. We were treated and I do mean treated to a five course mean every night. The breakfasts are great and set you up for a good day on the sloapes, in the afternon they serve both a sweet and savoury snack and then the onslaught of the dinner. We normally eat out alot while on holiday and this week we just didnt need to. Again lets put it into perspective because there was a little bit of recycling towards the end of the week as you would expect in any hotel but it was very minimal. The facilities overall were very good with a lovely heated outdoor pool and sauna. This is a must for evryone coming back from a day on slopes. Summary: I would recommend this to any of my friends

Have just returned from a week at the Sonnblick and found the food is very good , the menu imaginative with flexible meal times and the whole place clean and well presented The comfort double room we had was very well appointed, we particularly liked the computer with internet access in the room. The hotel is said to be in a quiet area which is not the case if youhave a room at the front as you can hear fairly constant traffic on the busy local road outside. Also the usual noisy revellersuntil late into the night. The hotel has no residents lounge to sit and relax which leaves you only with a small and smoky bar area which is not at all adequate for non smokers .
