The atmosphere in this hotel is anything but friendly. In fact i would suggest that intimidation is used by the owners and seniot staff to keep customers under control and maintain profits. True our room was large if dated with a comfortable bed but the bath was dangerously slippery and a request for a meagre bath mat was ignored. Even... More

I have skied in Niederau off and on for over 30 years and have stayed several times at the Harfenwirt. Herbert Thaler, the owner is an excellent host. The new rooms are excellent, they were built in 2008 and are spacious with good balconies. The view towards Niederau (facing west) have a better view, in my opinion. The older rooms... More

After experiencing a wonderful skiing holiday in Feb 2011 as a party of 11 staying at the hotel harfenwirt, we immediately booked for this year (2012). The hotel was so clean, friendly and offered and met all of our requirements for an amazing and wonderful holiday. Herbert was welcoming, amusing and all the staff were great. The skiing and ski...

We spent a week at the Harfenwirt with our 8 month old baby and overall, we felt it was good value for money. We paid slightly extra for a superior room (only £30 or so more) and this was great for us - it was really spacious, with lots of room for the baby and wonderful views of the mountains... More

Stayed at this hotel through a ski deal with Crystal and was pleasantly surprised by what we got for the money. Food was good and plentiful and they catered well for a vegetarian throughout the week. Swimming pool, sauna and steam room was definitely a welcome attraction after a day on the piste and room was comfortable. As others have... More

Just return from a week at Harfenwirt and loved it. I cannot understand the negative reviews. Went on skiing holiday with my husband , but I chose not to ski this year and The Harfenwirt seemed to be the perfect choice and we were not disappointed. It is ideally positioned for the slopes, lifts etc and ski bus stop for... More

Visited Niederau last winter for my first snowboarding break. Having not been to Austria before I was blown away with the surroundings. The hotel was nice enough for a last minute booking, room was clean and food was ok. Hotel is immediately opposite the piste which was cool, so sitting there at lunch with a Zipfer (local beer) was cracking.... More

Just got back from staying here for a week with my little boy. I had been to Niederau already so knew that this would be the place to bring my little boy skiing. Ski schools are excellent and although the apres ski is very limited, not to mention a good 10 minute walk away, its friendly and very enjoyable. Anyway,... More

We spend Christmas Dec 2011 at this Hotel and we paid extra for the newer rooms. We were very happy and recommend Herbert's Hotel. Last Christmas we had a berievement and going on this holiday was meant to make us as a family move on an little. It did that. I have never been to a Hotel where the owner... More
