Nice view from the room, perfect skishoes room, beautifuly traditionally decorated interior.

The staff was very friendly and always with a good attitude. They helped us to check in and settle quite fast and provided all information and support. They were very attentive to our needs. The view is another best thing there: both from the rooms and from the dinning area. SPA area is made in the way that there would be enough privacy for all the guests.

First of all, I am very thankful that I chose Hotel Lerch for your ski holiday. The position of the hotel is no doubt great. It takes just a few minutes to get to Skibus Station. The journey to Alpendorf takes up to ten minutes.
The meal was incredible. I have no complaints about service.

Perfect place for skiing, as it sits directly on slope. You can put ski on at hotels door and finish the day at the same place.
As usual in Austria, you will love the cuisine, restaurant is great. Room was good enough, no complaints about equipment, but i didn't expect anything above standard. Mattress was quite tough, i like that. The walls are maybe a little bit thin, you can hear a lot sometimes.
A 5-minute walk from the centre of Sankt Johann in Pongau, Hubertusstube offers modern rooms, a restaurant, Finnish sauna and fitness room. The Alpendorf Ski Area is a 5-minute drive away.

The rooms were small but reasonable enough, and had partial views of the mountains.
Located beside a shopping center, convenient to restaurants and grocery stores, in just about the heart of the city.
Breakfast was above average for Austria, and the Pongau Stube restaurant served seasonal fresh asparagus.

We are from Colorado so it was similar to Breckenridge or other small mountain towns. There are plenty of hills in town so it was a great "walking exercise experience." There are plenty of grocery stores and cheaper than the US. The situation of the town is beautiful!

Great location for those who want to travel in the province of Salzburg. We went for a walk on Ghost Mountain (the cable car a few hundred meters from the hotel). We took a trip to the Lichtenstein Gorge - this place is a MUST! Its five-minute drive - during busy times in the summer, it's convenient because you can start the day there when it's not too busy and hot yet. The trip to other attractions and sites is also short and the hotel itself is very close to the highway for those who want to reach sites such as the salt mines in Hallein, Hohenwerfen Castle, Salzburg and more. The town of St. Johann im Pongau has many shops and the area has some good restaurants with local food.

The city has all what a tourist needs. One may say typical Apline city, but has it's nice unique spots - for me: the old bridge neighbourhood (I'd say the old town). As it is located on a slope for me it's more pictureous than others located just in a valley.

Sank Johann was a very pretty town with a good range of shops, restaurants and cafes. We were there for the Skiing so did not spend a lot of time in the town, or at some of the attractions. However I have been coming to Sank Johann in the winter since 2009 and have never been disappointed.
I have never visited in the summer but I can only assume that it will be also be an excellent base from which to explore the area.
Bus service is excellent and Salzburg is only 1hr 15 away. €11 by train and does not require you to change trains.

The mountains around St Johann im Pongau are wonderful, the town its self has changed a lot. It used to be the main place to stay for winter sports in the area, but this has slowly been superseded by Alpendorf where there are a number of modern hotels and apartments (often moderately expensive).
This has caused a lot of the change which includes many of the great bars and restaurants closing and being replaced by some modern residential buildings (most recently the Silbergasse which we all loved).
Of course, if you stay on the edge of town, or a little up the hill (as we did this time), then there are beautiful places to stay. The remaining Hotels like Alpenland, The Brückenwirt and the Lerch and others can also be highly reccomended. Recently, the local Hahnbaum chair lift (where we started skiing in the early 80s) was removed and not replaced. That used to be a great place to ski with the locals on a Sunday after a later night out at ski lovers bar (also long gone). A beginner's area with a T-Lift and Banana lift still exist on the Hahnbaum, but in general you will ski out of Alpendorf (5 minutes drive up the hill), or you just have a short drive to many of the other "Salzburger Skiwelt" areas such as Großarl and Hoch König to mention just 2 out of many.
The town has expanded somewhat over the years, on the plus side this gives plenty of scope for food shopping if you are staying in an apartment. It is a town that many (like us) still love as we have been visiting for so many years, and it is always great to see familiar faces when on a winter holiday. The local people have always been extremely welcoming and very friendly.
Some prefer Wagrain, which has retained its quaint mountain village / town atmosphere and not as crowded as Flachau. Close by is Kleinarl which is a perfect Family resort.
For us, St Johann was and still is the center of the Salzburger Ski Welt, and we will hopefully be regulars for many years to come.

We had a lovely stay in one of the 1 bedroom apartments. It was on the ground floor, with a small kitchen and pull out sofa which our daughter used. The bedroom was very large. Some kitchen items were a little light, but overall, it had what we needed to cook some basic meals. Parking out front was convenient and there was a small balcony. The location was great, in Alpendorf, nearby many things to explore and a good stop over coming or going to Salzburg.
The self catering apartment was clean, well maintained and very comfortable. We loved the peaceful location and being able to see the mountains from the balcony.
We really liked being able to hike from Der Jaghof to Liechtensteinklamm and also to Alpendorf which are both nearby - it's a lovely walk through the fields and forest.
Children are well catered for - there is play equipment and a trampoline on site and a playground just down the road.
The location was fabulous as we enjoy quiet and open country views. Having said that it was only a short drive to the town to a great value restaurant,which was recommended by the owners.
The owners welcomed us like family and made our visit joyful as they invited us to join them for drinks and chat with other guests. Very hospitable. Nothing was too much trouble.
Exceptionally clean and the traditional decor was beautiful in this Austrian farmhouse.
Absolutely wonderful, the views are stunning.
Great home cooked food, and wonderful
Rooms.
A lovely host who took care of all her guests.
The drive from the main road is quite a challenge in winter, but that was because we are not used to driving in snow and ice, but once you have done it once, it’s fine.
The views are just stunning, which makes the drive worth it.
The only hotel l would return to in this area.
Food was very good. It would be perfect to have chicken hotdog sausage for breakfast instead pork one.
Dinner was also very good and lot of choice.
Our room was big and conformable.
We liked a lot spa area and the pool.
It was very good temperature all over hotel we never felt cold which is a big plus. Once you exit from the pool trough corridors to the room you dont have be worried to get cold or sick
The Alpenschlossl is an exceptional hotel, the quality is evident. The hotel owners and staff are so kind and friendly, nothing is too much trouble. The restaurant is exceptional and coupled with great facilities and super close proximity to the Alpendorf lift station, it genuinely deserves full marks.
I've been skiing in Austria for many years but I have every intention of returning to the Alpenschlossl.
Extremely cosy room (which was even nicer than on the photos), very spacious with a huge shared balcony to enjoy the most amazing view I have ever seen before. We really enjoyed that the Austrian feel was still maintained at the hotel. Breakfast was very nice too, and the host was very sweet and accommodating. We felt very much at home :)
Brilliant location - short walk from the station, really close to the stop for the ski bus, shop downstairs for buying lunch and snacks. Lovely breakfast - I particularly liked the fruit salad. And the owners were really friendly and helpful - very much appreciated!
Beautiful location... ski to door. Very friendly staff/owners.... Responded quickly to any enquiry. Gave us extra duvets or kitchenware when we needed them. Another family was able to stay in the same house, which made it an extra special holiday.
Great location. We were looked after very well. We didn't have a car so picked up a taxi from St Johann train station to get to Oberstockerhof (13 euro). Alpendorf and the ski lifts were 5-10 mins walk down the hill from the accommodation.
Unique combination between old and new, the property was very clean and the staff were very nice and generous. The hotel’s view was amazing and the pool, gym and bistro were all very good! Also rich spa area
Staff were very nice.
Room was great.
Hotel itself had nice meals, spa, pool sauna etc which were amazing. There was even a live music performance by the hotel bar one night.
Highly recommend.
Everything. It was perfect. Super clean, the manager and the staff were very friendly and kind. The breakfast was tasty. Parking at the hotel. Highly recommended!
