Landhotel Vordergrub

Smoky building, unfriendly staff, dark stairways

The whole building reeked of cigarette smoke, someone was continually smoking inside. The stairways were so dark we had to use flashlights to walk up to the second floor. No one was available at the front desk ever. The wood floor caused splinters in our feet. Pillows were very flat and there wasn’t ever anyone at the desk to ask for additional pillows. A maintenance man walked into my room when my child was still asleep in bed- no one informed me, and he didn’t even knock. At check out time, someone appeared at the desk and was very unfriendly. Would not return.

Breakfast was simple. We are happy with breakfast as it is convenient to have some warm food before you start a day in a snowy weather. It is not crowded at breakfast hall so my kids and I could spend some times slowly eating and chatting. Parking is convenient too, free and ample of space. Location is perfect, only 4km drive from Kidsbuhel, where my kids skied everyday. Within short driving distance there are supermarket and some small shopping outlet.

Lighting in the room is too dim even with the bedside light on. It is very uncomfortable when you are in the room. TV is placed in such an awkward position, right on top of a small table. Room a bit small for such price.The flooring and the furniture have splinters. Both my kids and I got poked by them when we were walking in the room.

Hotel was small with a very friendly staff that went out of their way to make our stay very enjoyable. Food and service in restaraunt were excellent. Overall feel was warm and welcoming. Would definitely stay at Vordergrub again. On the moountain, stopping at the huts being from the USA was a great new experience. Food was great, huts were so charming and prices on the mountain were reasonable unlike USA.Rental of demo ski and locker at base of Hahnenkamm Gondola was incredibly easy.

Location and the actual building were amazing. Very cozy restaurant area. Staff during our evening meals were friendly. The evening meals were very delicious. (Thankfully we arrived before fish week started with a limited menu). Easy drive to the Hahnenkammbahn. Hotel was in a lovely quiet location with plenty of parking.

Breakfast was poor. When you come downstairs at 9:15 with a family of 4 and you only find 3 bread rolls in a basket, that’s very disappointing. We had to ask constantly for more milk, even plates and cups! The breakfast waitress was miserable. The choice at the breakfast bar was very limited. Cold meat and cheese. Some jams and yoghurts. An old dry apple. Same unexciting fruit salad every day. The bedrooms are tiny with no where to sit apart from one wooden chair with a tiny table in a corner that has the TV right above it. Poor lighting in the rooms. Shower doors in one of our rooms were loose and only attached at the top. Showerheads need cleaning and taps were extremely difficult to adjust the temperature with as so old and “stuck”. When leaving the rooms you have to pull the doors shut which is very noisy during quiet times. My parents could hear the neighbour urinating and flushing the toilet next door. We were six and there was no where to play board games in the evenings other than in the restaurant in between dining guests! The playroom for kids was dull and had a football table in it, which you even had to pay for to play! No where to play for smaller kids. Dinners were very delicious but extremely overpriced. Glasses were dirty with lemon “bits” stuck to them from previous use. If the dishwasher won’t clean them please wash them by hand! It is very unappetising! The owners were very reserved, no chitchat or anything personalised despite having stayed there for 5 days and most evening meals. It’s a small hotel, I don’t actually think they knew our name. The owners do not turn up before 10:30, it is impossible to access the safe before that time, even when the heating was broken and there was no hot water for a shower in the mornings the owners were not in. When we left at 6am the entrance area was pitch black, my husband fell down the 2 steps by the front door carrying a suitcase! Overall the value for money was very poor and we would not return.

Never stay here not worth the cost.

This property shouldn’t charge more than85€. Rooms are small washrooms small.Dogs are allowed and bark at 2am.Staff is unfriendly

the breakfast was Ok. although very basic BF the lady asked if we want eggs scrambled or fried and they prepared as we needed. location is Ok.

the room has no enough light to read. only 1 ceiling light bulb and 1 small table lamp. 1 was not working. only 1 small soap is provided, no shower gel nor shampoo. towels are quite old towels. for this room rate, we expected a more comfortable living although the hotel is outdated.

Nice enough but the staff were about to leave when we arrived, even though it was only 5 pm. I asked for an extra blanket, which they got, but rather reluctantly. Room was nice enough but a bit small.

Breakfast next day was nice and the staff were very pleasant. Not terribly memorable.

Beautiful hotel building inside & out. Friendly & helpful staff. Everything very clean. Good breakfast.

Pretty traditional Austrian hotel and restaurant. Very friendly welcome. Nice rooms with balcony. Very dog friendly. Food was excellent.

Breakfast was boring after 4days. Location was 3 kms for centre.

Beds were uncomfortable and squeaked every time you turned over. Shower leaked. Mirror to high I could see myself at all. Picture in the wall clearly broken and if they had cleaned properly it should have noted and replaced.
