Sporthotel am Semmering

Great place to stay, good breakfast, easy to park, great views and you get a discount for the lift

We have stopped here for 1 night in business trip and we have taken option with dinner and breakfast. At beginning we needed to wait 5 minutes for some person in check in but then it was only advantages. View from room and terrace was amazing. Dinner was with some courses to choose. Generally OK. Breakfast quite rich as it was not high season and not so many guests. That's why my colleague could also get a room with view but probably girl in reception even didn't pay attention. This should be corrected for future. We didn't use swimming pool but we were playing ping pong. Maybe hotel is not so new and modern but we were finally very satisfied.

We have spent 4 nights at the hotel (two parents + two teenagers) this February. Pros: We liked the location - closed to the ski sites Semmering (closest) and Stuhlek, the size of the rooms, cleanliness, comfortable beds, the amazing view to the mountains from our triple room. The service was excellent: all the staff is very polite and quick to help. The steam sauna is very nice after a day of ski. There is a swimming pool of a decent size. The is a recreational room with a billiard, a "soccer" game and different table games to spent time in the evening. Cons: The food choice at breakfast was average, the restaurant where we had also a dinner (we booked a HB stay) is beautifully decorated, with maps on the table, the personal service of food by the waiters is very professional, the food looks very nice and is served like in a high level restaurant but is not that tasty as it looks like' to our opinion. The soups were delicious. Other dishes were average or lower. Especially deserts. The water in a swimming pool could be warmer. Overall I definitely can recommend this hotel for those who come for skiing.
