Ferienhof Pfefferbauer in Saalbach

A wonderful hotel. I would strongly recommend it. Whilst I was there I think they only had 3 or 4 other groups of guests.

Pros:
Great value (quite cheap compared even with places in the area that aren't as good). Lovely location, with direct access to halfway up a (blue) ski slope. Great views, comfortable and well equipped rooms. Wonderful family running it. The spa downstairs is amazing, and very well equipped. Like everything in Austria the hotel is spotless and perfectly maintained. Great continental breakfasts. They have a locked ski room for ski equipment storage. Turns out they are also a working farm, and offer cow milking and similar activities for children as well.

Cons:
When it is quiet the only hot breakfast option was boiled egg (as well as the full and varied continental breakfast). A long way up the hill, so if you have no skis (or miss the 4.45 ski lift closure) it is a long walk up the hill.

Summary:
Pros definitely outweigh the cons, and I would definitely stay here again. (I debated whether or not to write this review in case next time I want to stay there it is full, but they were so good that I thought they deserved it).

Very friendly, great rooms, good food, quiet and right by the slopes for great skiing! Have been here numerous times and can highly recommend

We had a great stay, very nice and friendly staff, great Appartements, in which every room has its own shower and toilet. Everything super clean! Perfect for big families or groups of friends!
