Ayurveda Resort Sonnhof

“Fantastic place”

Fantastic place, great service, beautiful house, nice food, yoga and meditation. The place to chose to relax from the pandemic and get some strenght. Do not hesitate. This is the ayurveda hotel to visit.

“Best Trip Ever”

I was not sure of what to expect here. I had signed up for a detox programme to just really clean my mind and body and it was fabulous! The Ayurveda Doctors Gaurav and Rajat were superb, professional and knew their stuff! The massages were spot on. The massage staff were almost nurturing handling us with the utmost care. Daniele in particular was excellent. The food and accommodation could not have been better. It is amazing what they do with vegetables. I personally thanked the chef...if you visit you will do the same. An intense detox... as a couple may be full on...and that is why I opted to go solo. The sauna and relaxation facilities are soooo very cool and the weather was perfect. Waking up and seeing the Alps through your window is quite sublime. I made some friends...all on their own journey. German clients here are more common but I managed to find a couple of English speaking friends. Tips: no wifi in rooms to ensure you have a detox from screens! You can use it in the lobby. However, I downloaded Netflix movies before I went and was able to watch in my room... Pack lightly as you are in your bathrobe most of the time. Dinnertime...bathrobes not allowed. Mosquitos in warm weather. I was ok but a customer from London got bitten in her room...so bring a repellent or plug with you. The hotel does not have anything. Sauna and steam rooms...everyone bares naked! I took my swimsuit. Swimming pool is small but great for exercise. There is a blue button to start the bubbles in the pool...only discovered it with 3 days to go! 7 days on my own...doing nothing was a bit daunting...but it depends on you. I will do a shorter relaxation break rather than a detox. Neelam I will be visiting next year.

We have just returned from visiting Ayurveda Resort Sonnhof, having spent 4 days/3 nights there. Quite simply it's a little piece of heaven in the Austrian Alps. All the staff cannot do enough for you......nothing is too much trouble. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming and ensure that your stay is going to be the best. Food is plentiful and of exceptional quality too. The 5 course dinner is beautifully presented and so varied from day to day. Lunch and breakfast - you are literally spoilt for choice! Afternoon tea is also served at 3pm......healthy cake (absolutely delicious) along with a choice of various fruits and nuts. We loved just relaxing in the lounge with their afternoon tea and a cappuccino! We had a junior suite ......wow......absolutely beautiful with a walk in wardrobe, tea making facilities, a huge balcony and beautiful views of the garden areas. The views from the hotel are simply stunning........if you imagine "Sound of Music" but so much better!! We had 3 spa treatments - all carried out professionally - so relaxing to be pampered. The massages are the best we have had! For anyone without transport, the bus stops opposite the hotel to take you into Kufstein and literally drops you back off outside the hotel - €5 per person each way. Definitely worth a visit too to Kufstein as the views along the journey are beautifully scenic. For anyone wishing to escape and enjoy total relaxation and tranquility, then this resort is for you. Absolutely loved our stay and cannot recommend it highly enough!

Ayurveda Resort Sonnhof is located near Kufstein, in a small but charming village and surrounded by an exceptional area of fabulous hiking opportunites. Very pretty and many wonderful views. As to the resort: Pro's: - excellent Ayurveda doctor: Mrs Rajat Vashisht. Friendly and highly competent. Cannot comment on her husband who equally is practicing as we were allocated to his wife. - lovely garden grounds for chilling - nice indoor pool area - friendly staff throughout - despite shortcomings, relaxing and we enjoyed a few lovely hikes in the neighbourhood and not to be missed Con's: - the Panchakarma package is not worth the travel nor the money, other than the two consultations with Mrs Vashisht, which again, were excellent. - Massages: mediocre except two or three; big differences in quality and tired staff who seemed to give treatment one after the other. - Food: not differentiating individual Doshas when on a Panchakarma detox; all tasty but by day three - tastes all the same. Never been to a Panchakarm detox where on the last day you get a fully normal meal: we had offered cake! the afternoon before our last day; wine and a heavy meal on the last day. Totally incomprehensible. Breakfast area for those not on detox, looked quite ok. Mrs Vashisht is very competent in nutritional advise, however this is not followed in the menu. - Rooms: it would have been a reason to leave on day one. We booked the most expansive one to ensure we have best quality. Far from it. Though spacious, the suite was dark and gloomy with-well lived furniture and so not the top Austrian quality one knows from other well appointed hotels in Austria. Fuerchterlich. - The hotel grounds are nice and with a sort of kitsch everywhere but it is not fair to judge taste. The otherwise almost daily IG sessions of both the owner and the male doctor are sadly not reflecting and competing with other renowned destinations for Ayurveda treatments. The male doctor was very friendly and greeted all guest throughout the day which I like to compliment. The hospitality gesture was not at par with the owners'. Reflections are made comparing with other places with similar offerings worldwide and hence putting into context the same.
