The foods (breakfast and dinner) were delicious.

The on-site restaurant serves a wondrous breakfast buffet and offers meals at both lunch and dinner, and are happy to accommodate those with restricted diets.

I haven’t seen anything like this

It was a FANTASTIC EXPERIENCE 

Very very friendly people working in this hotel 

Everything is very clean

Breakfast is excellent !!

There was a welcome buffet on the Saturday evening with fantastic options.

Max (a young, intelligent and very eager-to-please waitor, and Doris (a lovely, 40'ish woman who is always smiling and helpful) made breakfasts and dinner so pleasant.

During our week we had two gala dinners with a huge range of buffet food, plus we had one Tartare Rustica (fondue) in the a la carte restaurant which is included in the the dinner price if you stay for a week.

In February we had a great stay at the Sporthotel Royer - the day started with a great breakfast, a wide range of bread, sausages, muesli, cake and croissants, yoghurt, pancakes, different kinds of fruit and vegetable juices, sparkling wine and freshly made eggs and so on.

Excellent, great value for the money, lovely staff, very very friendly owner always joking, Saturday Gala buffet was amazing, big indoor/ outdoor pool practically in the hotel, afternoon tea and cakes very very nice, served dinner high quality, children had their own quite large buffet with unlimited soft drinks an unlimited ice cream !!!

The food at the hotel is superb- we had several gala dinners and the 2 buffet evenings were the best I’ve experienced- no cheap all you can eat style food here!

The price includes a huge breakfast buffet and 5 courses dinner, whit excellent food and a fitting wine suggestion.

Breakfast (made packed lunch),afternoon tea/cakes,drinks with dinner.

Definitely come back again to this hotel for the ‘healthy’ stay and ‘delicate’ culinary.

Breakfast and evening meals were very good indeed and a choice was given each day.

but very good with an excellent buffet in the morning for breakfast.

We were provided all meals as part of our package, and the food that was prepared was excellent was done buffet style and was excellent every time.

The restaurants are very good, serving generous breakfasts and traditional Austrian dishes for lunch and dinner.

The breakfast was also brilliant with lots of fresh food and fruit.

Starting the day with a great and delicious breakfast that contain chees, eggs, vegetables and a lot more.

My 11 yr old fussy eater usually had a mixture of the 5 courses and the children's buffet.

although in Austria, hotels are not completely smoke free and the smoky smell from the smoking room was apparent in the bar area.

Downside: Weird smell in our bathroom (I'm guessing from the pipes) - the "double bed" was 2 adjacent single beds.

Austria has a 'hit and miss' system of non smoking rules.

- Room is airy, nice bathroom, beds were a bit too soft, wide balcony with nice view. - Wellness area: the massage service was a disaster, the masseur smelled (sic!)

On the down side the pool is basically the town baths, which is not quite what you would expect from a four star hotel.

Restaurant won't aspire for michelin star

although the hotel claims for 4-star superior status, it is not worth paying 4plus price for around 3 star quality (tired, very crowded hotel).

The free wifi was not working in our room

although 3EURO per day is not excessive, the quality was not great and you had to keep logging in.

although you have to pay extra for wifi which is a pet hate of mine that in some way made up for it.

Minor disatvantage: wi-fi available only in the lobby and not so good working :(

Internet is working average and is available only in the reception.

One negative, chargeable Internet in rooms with cable for hire, wifi in reception area rather 'hit and miss' . .

The only two minor disadvantages we found were that the heating was a bit too low in the hotel and rooms and the internet connection was not so good in the loby (and only wired internet existed in the rooms).

Might be an idea to take your own cable in case there wasn't one available if you plan to use the internet.

The food in the restaurant was absolutely spot on, after eating breakfast we didn’t need to get lunch because the evening meal was amazing, the food was always fresh and varied.

We had half board - both breakfast and dinner were abundant and of great quality.

Upon short notice, we did find a nice suite available at the Falkensteiner Schaldming, with half-board (4 & 1/2 *)
Overall, it was a pleasant experience, with top level service in the restaurant (both at breakfast and dinner); also, the reception staff was very helpful and pleasant.

There were plenty of fresh glutenfree pastry options at breakfast and dinner.

4)Buffet at dinner is very good and tasty
5)Waitress provided me a dedicated desert after she understood that I am allergic to one of the ingredients in the desert of the menu

Con:
1)Most TV channels are in German , the only one in English I could locate was about economy.

The breakfast food selection was excellent.

Always excellent cuisine, six-course menu for dinner and a very rich breakfast.

Excellent buffet, good kitchen, nice bar with 2 cool barkeepers that mix you all kind of drinks

Dinner and drinks afterwards at the bar were delicious.

Excellent rating with delicious breakfast, friendly and helpful staff members in a beautiful and ecologically responsible hotel.

great breakfast and dinner, perfect location, near the ski resort, close to the center of town, 
excellent and free parking.

I was very satisfied with the hotel, I would definitely recommend it to anyone  For my taste I would wish a buffet dinner.

Exceptional cuisine and breakfast buffet, competent and friendly staff everywhere (reception, restaurant, spa), wonderful, calm athmosphere in the spa and great beauty and wellness treatment offers.

the room is just a little too warm
friendly and knowledgeable staff, excellent choice of restaurant and breakfast.

Partly there is also buffet which is nice so you do not get hungry to bed.

Large salad bar, various breads, cheese, and soup all of which were buffet style.

I also did not appreciate that after paying an above-average rate for a room, the hotel includes a “voluntary tipping” charge in the final invoice as a default.

but at top level hotel there should be a restrictive policy in vigor, asking the guests to pay full price for any child over 1 year old.

The price and rating of the accommodation does not meet the expectations of the guests.

On the end the price does not reflect quality.

Shame, that they try to reduce their costs with students during the summer season.

but, for what it costs, I was expecting more.

However, for the price it costs you get only massage from young ladies without enough experiences, so we couldn't feel any difference before and after.

The waiter remembered that I have food intolerance, and he always asked before a main meal if they should leave out something from the plate.

I have been to so many spas around the worlds; several of them were even Falkeinster properties in Austria and I have never been asked to enter the steam sauna without sheet.

I was dissapointed when I asked for discount.

Since I was asked about this before: what is there to do in this hotel in summer?

We had fun renting e-bikes and segways (this was actually the only the service was not good - we asked to rent segways,

My husband hurt himself while skiing and the staff went over and beyond, calling taxis to take him to hospital bringing up ice packs etc, cleaning our room when requested as he was staying inside all day.

We only managed to book a room when a second request email was sent, I guess that was due to a little short notice from us(a few weeks in advance).

Moreover, the rooms do not offer much privacy as the bathroom is only separated by glass walls and doors.

However, the issue is that since the water is so clear, blue and reflective off the side metal walls you can see all of the snot and mucus / discharge floating in the water. GROSS.

although too much glass: doors, walls so would not say I was extremely comfortable when showering as the bathroom just exactly in the site of front door.

The breakfast buffet had a great variety of items -  which starts at 07:30, which can be bit tight if you wanted to catch the 08:05 bus to the ski lift.

The staff were so accommodating and efficient and breakfast had great variety and was very tasty.

The hotel's greatest asset is delicious cuisine - each dish deserves a commendation.

Perfect places to set up your tent, good showers, optional nice breakfast, very friendly staff.

We stayed on a half-board basis, the breakfast buffet is incredibly good and dinner was excellent quality, imaginative and varied.

We stayed on a half-board basis and both breakfast and dinner offered good variety and excellent quality.

So much so that it's Fish Buffet is always sold out with locals and visitors taking up any available tables.

The breakfast offers everything you need without being overloaded.

The breakfast was really nice too - so I would thoroughly recommend this hotel.

Opted for breakfasts which were well done.

Breakfast was great – not too over-complicated

Breakfast and dinner was delicious, hotel staff is very kind.

It"s take 10 minutes walk to center and Planai ski area;ski bus is in front of the hotel.Big and modern rooms,very well furnished, amazing views on the slopes.The rooms are very clean .Wonderful cuisine ,breakfast and dinner was rich and various ;congratulation for the chef.

We booked half-board accommodation, both breakfasts and dinners were tasty and high quality.

although like most Austrian campgrounds there is no camp kitchen or shelter because they run their own onsite restaurant in the hotel building.

One thing i though strange was that there was no fridge in the room -

We only found one thing missing and hope that the management can consider making a game room or kids corner somewhere in the hotel (e.g.

however say that the public toilets on the lower floor are some of the cleanest and most pristine I've ever seen and that says so much for the management.

If you happen to book for the week of this event, be sure to ask Marcel to organise your tickets to watch the race - the atmosphere was amazing!

although it was all buffet, including the dinner main course.

Nice atmosphere prevailing throughout the facility, delicious breakfasts and a nice atmosphere in the evening bar, the unique location that makes you want to come back here, right in front of the Planay slope.

but as a buffet wouldn’t call it great, which was the only very minor blemish.

The employees staff is great and friendly, breakfast was absolutely amazing, location perfect since you can reach the gondole Planai I directly from the hotel‘s ski room through the parking lot.

Breakfast was good and there was plenty of food to choose from.

but the breakfast was much better than the buffet dinner although you could have all you could eat.

Breakfast and dinner are more than adequate

Nice buffet breakfast, dinner had starter, soup, main and dessert.

The breakfast is rich and varied, the rooms are well equipped and clean.

Breakfast and dinner were great (both were buffet style) with the dinner menu changing daily.

Also, we have to mention the fantastic breakfast it offers.

Staff are very helpful and the breakfast was excellent

The room was clean and modern, the breakfast was superb and the location is excellent.

No need to have smelly ski boots in the room as they are stored in the ski room.

This is a non-smoking hotel, still not common in Austria.

However smoking is not banned anywhere in Austria so expect to be covered in smoke, nevermind seeing other skiers dancing around in their tight ski trousers or even skiing boots!!!!!! Hilarious.

The home run is floodlit at night so you can watch the last foolhardy stragglers making their way down, most of them falling.

Despite being some 1-2 Degrees Celsius, you can sit in the sun in front of the hotel in only a jumper and watch the skiers coming down the mountain and even get a tan!!!!! !

Our half board meal option was prompt, piping hot, hearty and delicious.

The food was great and plenty of it, we were half board, there was not the biggest range at breakfast,

we had the side salad on a few occasions which was delicious.

Nice polite staff, good wholesome well cooked food at dinner and breakfast.

but if you want hot showers, plentiful food and comfy beds this is ideal.

Breakfast was plentiful with lots of choice, not cooked options apart from boiled eggs

Breakfast is continental style with meats,cheeses,cereal and boiled eggs.

Eggs are fine if you like them very runny!

Great traditional hotel, clean room, nice breakfast and friendly staff.

Food is plentiful with a choice of up to 8 main courses at dinner.

From Christina on reception to Danniella at breakfast & dinner, we were looked after superbly.

Continental breakfast was fine and a 3 course evening meal with plenty of choice was enjoyed every night of our stay.

Breakfast was continental style and was always fresh, with a large jug of coffee for those who wanted it.

Al staff first class,food down to earth good austrian fare with a l carte if required,breakfast always fresh bread ham eggs.Evening meal plenty of choice good portions always hot and on time.Bar small,drinks very reasonable.Bedroom a bit tired

The meals were well presented and plentiful.

Fantastic food, delicious and typically Austrian, the beautiful old 16th century hotel was very unique especially the breakfast/dining room at the front and never forgetting the very friendly staff, one in particular who made us laugh so much.

The hotel surprised me with a truely delicious cake and then Albert (of the Familie Tritscher) opened a few bottles and somehow created a inpromptu birthday party for me of all the other guests who were still in the restaurent, which was a blast!

I was on the top floor at the front of the building and was not bothered by road noise.

Plus there's a nightclub 40 metres down the road.

We stayed here in January having booked through Crystal and were the only skiers going to Schladming so we got a private taxi,GOOD, it's windscreen wipers did not work and the road was dirty,BAD.

The local Schladming beer is not to be missed and brewed only 100 meters down the road.

but better atmosphere can be found across the road at Charlie Kahrs or the igloo round the corner.

No cooking smells in our room as previously mentioned!

Being a non skier I spend a fair bit of time in the room and have never found the smell from the restaurant to be offensive.

Going to bed and waking up to the smell of schnitzels was a bit nauseating.

The hotel looks like it has now gone non smoking as I never saw anybody smoking inside anytime during the week we were there.

but was far too smoky - seems that everyone here smokes.

The carpet was covered in stains and everything rolled off the bedside table as it was wonky.

uncomfortable chairs and messy bashed up tables.

At times tables may need to be shared with other guests.

The downside is that sometimes you can go downstairs for dinner and there isn't a table available.

Although we were never turned away from sitting there for an hour or so with a drink, we felt as if we were taking up a table that they could have been using for serving meals.

The breakfast buffet offerings were great,

We had accomodation with halboard so we eat delicious dishes in all mornings and evening.

The food was good with a buffet dinner on Saturdays and a small dinner menu to choose from on the other days - always with one vegetarian option if that's your thing.

Breakfast with good selection and cooked-to-order eggs.

I am not quite sure: The rooms are very comfortable, the half board dinners very good, the breakfast is very good - everything is very good -

Breakfasts were excellent with freshly-cooked eggs to order and a great selection of options.Dinners were also marvellous with excellent options including vegetarian.

Excellent breakfast, coffee in the afternoon and dinner.

Nothing is too much trouble, they anticipate that hungry winter walkers and skiers will be returning mid afternoon and provide an excellent, savoury buffet and high tea included with the package.

We loved eggs' cooking in the morning and the cakes' buffet in the afternoon.

Staff was very hospitable and helpful, and we were very happy with the daily breakfast and dinner buffets (dinner everyday is a buffet + choice of main course of fish/meat/vegetarian).

The food is delicious and the servings generous, with a focus on local cuisine.

Good breakfast, Full evening meal and a cake and tea mid afternoon (if you are around).

Excellent hotel, room very comfortable, extensive breakfast buffet & lovely evening meals.

The Hotel Matschner is a Hotel and Restaurant located in the middle village beside the main streets Ramsau next to the Post office, this time we came for lunch, the place is very nice, the Staff are friendly, helpful, the food was very delicious ! !

This hotel is pretty much everything what I could ask from a hotel: clean, quiet, nice foods, great dinners, nice breakfast, big indoor swimming hall connected to the hotel via hallway, nice views, friendly staff and good location for all activities.

The food has beautiful, fresh, local ingredients of top quality and the limited menu of  which some visitors complain, is to me an irrelevance, because I loved everything on offer- so did my daughter and son-in-law.

The generous buffet breakfasts, including omelettes freshly made to order by a charming lady, afternoon cakes and four course dinner are just too good to ignore!

It felt like such a waste during these days of global warming.

but it has the feel of a small family run establishment.

I don't feel problem with fitness centre as something important,

It was also not a comfortable feeling eating in a restaurant that probably held 40-50 tables most of which were empty.

Considering that we had spent our first night unexpectedly in a Youth Hostel where the food had really been impressive in its variety and quantity (open buffet), paying a much higher price at Matschner for such disappointing food made everything seem even worse.

Pool: There is a private entrance into the Ramsau pool which is open from 11am (so no early morning swim).

but I did use earplugs with the windows and balcony door open when the daytime temperature was hitting 35C.

Unfortunately it was open only after noon and very crowded.

If you want any of the other buses (the 900S along the valley bottom to either end of the main ski area, for example) you'd need to change at the main gondola station.

The room needed a seating area as there was only one small wooden chair.

A bit strange that the bar area was not staffed and you had to buy beer in the dining area instead.

The bar area was small and closed very early.

Bar area is small and is not open until 6pm.

Firstly the check-in was in a cramped reception area, again nothing like its photo, with a lady going on for at least 30 minutes all the information she gave us just going over our heads.

Also there is no lounge/bar area  for socialising with friends.

Other commenters have a valid point about there being limited socialising areas although there is a small bar with 4 high tables,

The only negative I have about the hotel is the lounge area or lack there of.

The location of the hotel on a hill could prove difficult to the older generation and cost them in taxi fares, it is also in my opinion more of a family hotel rather than a single traveller as i was,although most of the time you don`t notice this there were times when the lack of a lounge area was prohibitive.

There is no lounge just a couple of chairs and 2 sofas in the reception area.

There is only really small bar area to be used for any such purpose.

but the bar and lobby area did not provide this.
