Alpenland St Johann

We had a two-night stay at the Alpenland St Johann hotel. Our main reasons for staying here were easy access to Burg Hohenwerfen and also the Liechtensteinklamm gorge. We walked from the station to the hotel (as the distance was quite short), but it was slightly uphill so it would have been better to either wait for the bus or get a taxi. The Alpenland is large hotel, but August must have been out of season as a lot of facilities were not operational. We booked a family room, but ended up with two linked rooms which was brilliant – my son’s room has a decent kitchenette and a dining table. As we had two rooms we ended up with two sets of Nespresso capsules (that kept me very happy). There was nice views from the room balcony. There is a large (for a hotel) swimming pool with plenty of outside seating. Sauna area was not so good, I tried it once but it was not relaxing. There is also a gym, but I did not try this out. Breakfast was very average (we were probably spoiled by excellent breakfast in our two previous hotels). We were half-board; evening meals were OK, but there are several restaurants within a short walk of the hotel and these may have been a better option if not on a tight budget. There are a few supermarkets just meters away (from where we purchased lunchtime snacks); but could also have been used for getting whatever you needed for self-catering. For great ice-creams, we would recommend J&D Coffee company which is between the hotel and the shopping center. Local guest card provide free local transport to the railway station (great for trips to Saltzburg, Burg Hohenwerfen and also Bad Gastein) and also locally to the Liechtensteinklamm gorge – both buses running hourly.

Large well equipped hotel. Excellent swimming pool with hot tub (ideal after a day out hiking!). Very conveniently located next to a shopping centre which includes a big supermarket. Friendly and helpful reception staff, and efficient cleaning staff. Good buffet breakfast. Car park under the hotel.

The hospitality of the hotel and of the staff is undisputed. It was our second visit and the structure is always a pleasure to visit and despite my terrible German we managed to explain ourselves properly. Only the room reservation had an issue, and it was not the same as 3 years ago.

The hotel was spacious, the staff courteous and professional, well located for the town amenities and very good wellness facilities. Used the infrared sauna, pool and steam room and these were a very good size and super hot (which we like). Overall had a very enjoyable stay and hope to return.

What a wonderful resort. The staff was the best. They were so helpful with all our needs and gave excellent advice, location, and the beauty of St Johann, and it's residents were beyond compare. The food, rooms, and amenities were superb. We don't typically return to the same place twice, but this place may be an exception

Just returned with my family from a week’s stay at the Alpenland Hotel in Sankt Johann. The hotel is great with a mix of traditional and modern and the staff are all very friendly and helpful. Nothing is too much trouble for them. The food is fabulous and the leisure facilities are great. The location in the town centre of Sankt Johann could not be better and is perfect for shops, cafes bus and train connections. The Alpendorf Gondela Station is only a 5 minute journey by hotel shuttle connecting to the Ski Amade area, and it's only 50 minute transfer from Salzburg Airport by road. All on all a great .place to stay
