Hotel Pongauerhof — Hotel in Flachau

I returned last week from a trip to Flachau with 26 friends; we have been going to Flachau for about five years and normally stay in a clean but basic hotel. This year we booked into the 4* Hotel Pongauerhof on one of their winter deals, which included half board and 6 day ski pass (850euro); the hotel only had a couple of reviews on Trip Adviser, but they were good. We were not dissapointed. The hotel is in the centre of town and the ski busses stop right outside -albeit it is only a 10 minute walk to the lifts. The hotel facilities are very good, and the staff are excellent and made us all feel very welcome. Large rooms, some appartments close by for families and an immaculate wellness area with saunas, steam rooms and relax area - all continental, so no need for swim wear - a great way to relax after a long day on the slopes. The food was excellent, perhaps too good.... Best contenental breakfast I have had yet - inluded bacon & egg etc, and there is not problem making up a roll for your lunch. Evening meals were 5 course, starting with a help yourself salad bar - which would have been enough - but you had to save yourself for the other courses. Drink in the hotel was reasonable. The only negative was that the hotel bar still allows smoking, so that wasnt a place you wanted to spend much time - but there were other rooms avaiable to drink in. Special mention to Norman who served us each evening..... good sense of humour....for a German.....would...

We stayed in the hotel for a week for a skiing holiday.|The service was very good and they had a good breakfast buffet.|Everyday they brought us coffee at the table and you could request fried or scrambled eggs which the chef made in the kitchen.||Nice and friendly staff with a good housekeeping in the hotel who were cleaning the room every day perfect!||The bus stop for the ski lifts were just (max) 50 meters from the hotel.||All services who you need for a skiing holiday are in the hotel. A nice warm room to put your skis and ski shoes in to start the day good.||Definitely coming back to this hotel if I go to...

A really good hotel. The owner cooks in the kitchen and produces good simple well prepared food, thats excellent. Good easy access to the slopes with the ski buses stopping 20m from the hotel. The wellness facilities are clean and well maintained and add that wee bit of luxury to the stay.||If you are a night owl, then the hotel is within 5 mins of all the other bars and restaurants||If you are visiting in the summer and are a motorcyclist you will be made very welcome, which for me would be a bonus.||I would be happy to stay at this...
