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).

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.

Simply perfect

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.

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.

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

Högklassigt hotell i kanten av gigantiskt skidområde. Bäst: Frukosten som slår det mesta samt ett finfint spa. Sämst: Lyhört och en jobbig toalettfläkt. Övervägande äldre gäster. Lugnt och stilla.

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 :)

Weitläufiges Hotel mit schönem Innenpool, nettes Personal und gute Auswahl beim Frühstück (Frische, Smoothies, Brotsorten). Super Ausblick vom Zimmer. Streichelzoo im Garten. Großer Fitnessraum. Sauna war leider schon eher zu als angegeben.
