The front staffs had attitude. They did not like to kindly explain about the facilities. I requested the dinner reservation but our table was not booked so we had to wait for an hour. (The restaurant staffs were nice though).

Wohlfühlhotel im Skigebiet

Das Hotel hat einen sehr schönen Eingangsbereich. Bei der Inneneinrichtung wurde viel Holz verwendet und damit hebt sich der Oberforsthof ab von so manchem 'modernem' Hotel mit minimalistischer und kalter Einrichtung. Der Wellnessbereich ist überschaubar, ein paar Liegen mehr im Untergeschoss bei den Saunen wären wünschenswert. Das Frühstück ist sehr gut mit üppigem Buffet und Prosecco. Zum 5-gängigem Abendessen stehen jeweils 2-3 Hauptspeisen zur Auswahl, die ebenfalls sehr lecker sind.

Schönes Hotel inmitten der Salzburger Bergwelt

Wunderschöner Aufenthalt mit meiner Familie. Wellnessbereich sowohl innen als auch außen sehr schön, tolles Bergpanorama. Ausflüge / Wandertouren direkt vom Hotel aus möglich, man braucht hier kein Auto. Personal sehr freundlich, Essen sehr gut. Wir können das Hotel mit gutem Gewissen weiter empfehlen.

Skidåkning i Alpendorf

Kan starkt rekommendera Hotellet och skidområdet. Hotellet lever väl upp till sina 4 stjärnor. Maten, 5 rätters är utmärkt. Frukost med allt vad det innebär. SUPER! Wifi fungerar i Lobbyn och matsalen. Väldigt svag eller obefintlig signal på rummet

Skiing Alpendorf, Hotel Oberforsoff

All the staff were wonderful at the Oberforsoff, nothing was to much trouble, service excellent. Beautiful pool, spa area. Choice of dinning on offer very good. My only complaints would be bedrooms very hot during the night and smoking allowed in the bar, although there was a lovely lounge to sit and enjoy a drink. Saying that we plan to return next year.

Fantastisk vistelse!

Vi hade två övernattningar på hotellet sommartid. Vi hade beställt halvpension och det visade sig att det ingick lunch (tre olika rätter från buffé) samt 5-rätters på kvällen. Maten var utsökt! Omgivningarna var fantastiska! Den enda nackdelen var att det inte fanns AC på rummet o det var 30 grader ute när vi var där då det blek väldigt varmt på rummet. Man fick en liten burk marmelad med sig hem vid utcheckning vilket var en gullig gest :)

Hotel location is pretty good. There is plenty of opportunities for hiking. I have to highlight also stunning view from hotel room. The hotel itself is simply perfect - when it comes to service, facilities and restaurant. Breakfast offer is very wide, the hotel offers even vegan option of breakfast and everything is fresh. Overall I want to recommend this hotel. We´ve enjoyed our stay and there no doubts will come back again.

Fantastisk ophold!

Jeg var på Oberforsthof i forbindelse med en skiferie. Det perfekte sted for enkeltpersoner, par og familier med børn fra 7-8 år og opefter. Den lækreste morgenbuffet, indbydende kagebord hver eftermiddag og 5-6 retters menu hver aften. Meget venligt personale. For skientusiaster er hotellet oplagt, da der ligger en lift lige på modsatte side af vejen. Fra hotellet har man udsigt over pisten. Fantastisk smukt! Fint fitnesscenter med maskiner fra Technogym og et virkelig lækkert poolområde. Eneste minusser er, at det er tilladt at ryge i restaurantens bar, som ligger lige ved siden af restauranten, derudover må der ryges på hotellets terrasse, hvilket også tæller ned.

大満足

Ｓｐｅｃｉａｌ　Ｄｅａｌ　プランだったので、あまり期待していなかったのですが、とても良い滞在が出来ました。部屋に案内されると、子供用にぬいぐるみがおいてあり、洗面所には子供用アメニティ、（石鹸がメロンの香りでした）　テーブルにはフルーツの盛り合わせ。一泊２食付のプランでしたが、結局、お昼もついていました。部屋も広く、ベットとテーブルソファがありました。子供のドンク代は、終日無料、大人は６時まで（コーヒーとかは別でしたが）。夕食はコースですが部分的にブッフェ形式でした。（サラダなど）プールエリアでは蒸し風呂、リラックスルームが気に入りました。ここにも十分な飲み物をよういしてありました。外の庭はとても気持ちが良く、天気がよければ一日中サンデッキでリラックスしていたいところです。子供は、ウサギなどにえさをあげたりしてとても楽しんでいました。部屋、レストラン、プール、庭、、掃除が行き届き、きれいで快適でした。またサービスもよかったです。また次回滞在したいと思います。唯一つ、お得なプランだったのできっと古い部屋だったのかもしれませんが、トイレを改装したらもっと良くなると思います。
