Minglers Sportalm - Das Gourmet- Und Genießerhotel

“Excellent stay - we hope to be back”

The hotel and the restaurant is just excellent. The service provided by the host is also great and makes the overall experience memorable. The quality level in the restaurant is consistently high, making the daily dinner a highlight.

“Fantastic hotel!”

we stayed at the hotel 2 years ago and were so happy then that we returned this year. the location, the food, the staff, the rooms.... everything is perfect. the owners know exactly what their guests need and work so hard to make everyone happy.

“2nd Visit - Fantastic Hotel”

Our second visit to the Sportalm. A wonderful small family-run hotel in a superb location on the edge of Kirchberg ideally located for skiers next to the Fleckalmbahn gondola. We stayed in the new rooms located on the same floor as the new pool. The rooms are furnished in alpine-chic style, are… more

Our second visit to the Sportalm. A wonderful small family-run hotel in a superb location on the edge of Kirchberg ideally located for skiers next to the Fleckalmbahn gondola. We stayed in the new rooms located on the same floor as the new pool. The rooms are furnished in alpine-chic style, are comfortable and spacious with views to the north. We used the pool several times following skiing enjoying the warm water and relaxing setting. Even though it was Carnival week, the spa facilities were not crowded. The highlight of the hotel is the food - wow! Every evening meal was a culinary experience and one of the best we have experienced in the last 10 years in the alps - the chef is amazing. In summary, delicious food, attentive and friendly staff, an elegant new spa area and owners who clearly care about the well-being of their guests. Highly recommended.

“Fell short of our previous experience”

Last year, during the depth of the covid outbreak, my wife and I stayed here for a week and had a lovely time. I believe I wrote a 5 star review. We also recommended this to our friends who stayed during this most recent visit as well. Some things remained the same; access to the slopes is easy,… more

Last year, during the depth of the covid outbreak, my wife and I stayed here for a week and had a lovely time. I believe I wrote a 5 star review. We also recommended this to our friends who stayed during this most recent visit as well. Some things remained the same; access to the slopes is easy, the dinners were delicious, and some staff members such as Lukas and Hannes are exceptional with respect to customer service. That noted, this review is only 3 stars for the following reasons: 1- The hotel was really understaffed this year, especially during breakfast. Generally speaking we eat early, but one morning we didn't get to the restaurant until 0900 (hours are from 0730 to 1000) and there was very little food remaining. There were only 2 staff members serving over 35 people and the place was a mess. Given we were paying over $400/night for our room, one would expect much better attention to food service. 2- Because my wife and I caught a bad cold, and one of our friends was also going to miss breakfast due to jet lag, we attempted to bring 3 breakfast rolls up to our room (note there is no lunch service and the "snacks" provided at 1500 are minimal). As we were bringing these rolls with us (a value of maybe 1 Euro), the old lady running the kitchen grabbed them from us (after we'd already handled them) saying we are not allowed to take food to our room and then she proceeded to put them back for consumption. This is not only unsanitary, but we were shocked at the unfriendly behavior. I've stayed at literally hundreds of hotels and never, not once, has someone said I can't take food to the room. Again, for over $400/night, one would expect much better consideration. 3- Sauna/spa does not open until 1400, so if you aren't a skier or just taking a rest day, there isn't much to do. 4- There is no small fridge in the room so if you have medications or things for your kids you need to keep cold, you'll be in trouble. There are some lovely people working here, the place is well kept, and the location is good. That said, compared to last year, the visit was disappointing and we'll seek out another place to stay and recommend to our friends next year.
