We would also like to say thanks for all the help you gave us before our holiday. You website had lots of useful information about the immediate and surrounding areas and the apartment itself. Claire Gamble, Leicester, UK (Feb 08)

We loved the apartment and it was a real home from home, and the valley was great for us skiing and for our parents too.

The skiing was great and the snow was probably the best I have skied on in many years. We thought Schlossalm was great for variety of pistes up there. We enjoyed the mountain huts, especially the Ahornhütte on the Stubnerkogel. We also stopped at the Ski-restaurant in Angertal. The restaurant was great - sheep skin rugs on the seats made for a warm stay and the food hearty, just what was needed.

The waterfall in the town centre is great to have and one night we were there, the locals played music just up and to the right, this was piped throughout the town and this was great. They were selling gluhwein and people dancing in the street so made for a nice atmosphere.

In summary, a great holiday with home from home accommodation, lovely setting. Mum would love to visit in the summer, when it is green and the flowers are out. Jo and Chris Kew, Hertfordshire, UK (Jan 08)

We *loved* the apartment and would really like to stay there again next year. We skied up at SportGastein nearly every day because there was so much snow up there, we loved it. We also spent the day in the Alpentherme Spa in Bad Hofgastein which was awesome. Such a lovely place. We tried quite a few of the restaurants too all of which were great, the Salzburger Hof, the Gruner Baum. Because it was Christmas and my Mum & I both cook, we cooked in quite a few nights as well. The kitchen was perfectly equipped.

The apartment had everything we needed, and we all loved how easy the walk to town was. Thanks so much for an excellent Christmas! Ian and Sarah Forbes Jones, Munich, Germany. (Christmas 07)

The apartment was great. Everything we could need for a week and in easy to find places. We went for a few walks. One day we went up Gamskarkogel behind Grüner Baum with a hut/bar at the top. Another day we walked along the high path to Bad Hofgastein. It does go past some nice waterfalls. In Bad Hofgastein we sat in a really nice park for lunch feeding the ducks and then walked back along the path by the river.

Our favourite walk was past Grüner Baum and up to Reedsee (a really nice breezy place after the heat and nice cold water to paddle in) and then on to Palfner Scharte. There are plenty more walks to be done around theapartment so we really hope to go back.

Thanks for providing such a great place to stay! Debbie and Ian, Norwich, UK. (July 07)

We did get out for several walks and managed 5 rounds of golf during our stay. We really liked the golf course and would described it as interesting and challenging. I also developed quite an affection for the waterfalls and we had a couple of walks up towards Graukogel and Stubnerkogel.

There scenery everywhere is breathtaking and we look forward to visiting again sometime. Clive, Barbara and Chris, Surrey, UK. (June 07)

Das Appartment Graukogel liegt wirklich traumhaft.Zum einen ruhige Lage mit einem tollen Panoramablick zum Stubnerkogel (... die ersten Skifahrer morgens auf der Piste erspäht man beim Frühstück sehr schön) zum anderen soe zentral, so dass zu jeder Jahreszeit ein Einkauf oder sonstiges in Bad Gastein zu Fuß zu erledigen ist (wir waren im Herbst zum Wandern da und letztes WE zum Skifahren).
Es ist nicht nur die gute Alpenluft die uns immer ausgezeichnet schlafen lässt, es liegt vor allen an den hervorragenden neuen Matratzen und Betten (eine Wohltat für jeden Rücken - Bandscheibengeschädigte hier schlaft ihr wie auf Wolken!). Kurzum, nicht nur die schöne Region im Gasteiner Tal sondern das Appartment bietet rundum eine Wohlfühlatmosphäre, meist schon nach dem Auspacken des Autos fühlen wir uns dort wie"zu Hause" und können die freien Tage genießen. Wir kommen bestimmt öfters, ihr seid noch ein wahrer Geheimtipp! - Manu und Matthias, Munich, Germany. (March 07)

Going somewhere new with the family under your own steam can be a bit of a worry, but getting to Bad Gastein by plane and train couldn't have been easier. There can't be many ski resorts with an intercity line on the doorstep. Then it's only five minutes by taxi.

The apartment was excellent with the comforts of home that are needed after a hard day on the piste. With lots of space and a great drying room Apartment Graukogel provided those extras that made self-catering easy. The rooms were good, the beds comfortable and games provided that led to no complaints from four teenagers.

The apartment benefits from a quiet, relaxing setting, but is still just a short walk from the main bars and restaurants. Getting to the ski resort was easy, especially as-up-to date bus timetables had thoughtfully been provided at the apartment.

We had a fantastic holiday and wouldn't hesitate recommending the apartment to anyone else.- Kath and Rich, Chepstow, Wales (Feb 07)

Lovely apartment in a great location. Just far enough out of town to feel secluded but close enough to be a short walk to all the bars and restaurants if you like things a bit more lively. The apartment is very welcoming, clean and remarkably spacious (it accommodated 6 friends with ease). We really liked Bad Gastein which is a great traditional ski resort with good links to other parts of the Amade ski area (especially as the ski bus is so close). We'd recommend some apres ski at the Silver Bullet if you've still got the energy!

The scenery is just stunning (including the view from the apartment).We enjoyed skiing on the Schlossalm area above Bad Hofgastein the most and especially the beer and apple strudel stops along the way!

Had a great ski holiday and we have been recommending the apartment and the area to anyone who will listen since returning to the UK. - Dave & Ros, Nottingham, UK (Feb 07)

We had a fantastic time in your brilliant apartment. We've stayed in several ski apartments over the years, and yours has to be the roomiest we have ever stayed in - we reckon that it could sleep 8 comfortably. We were a bit worried about the distance from the village, but the walk from the back of the apartment was so quick and convenient. Kitchen was fantastic, with a grill and dish washer - home comforts which we have not had in some apartments! We really enjoyed our stay and all agreed that you have a beautiful apartment in a great ski area. We will be in touch with you again some time. - Graham and Sue, Marienfeld, Germany. (New Year 06/07)
