A late review after an excellent ski-ing weekend in Alpbach in mid-March. he Sonnwend is extremely well run, and makes an excellent base from which to enjoy the beautiful Alpine scenery. The ski bus stops nearby, and all the facilities of Alpbach (actually part of the charm of Alpbach is that it doesn't have too much going on!) are close... More

Haus Sonnwend is a really excellent guesthouse. Large comfortable rooms and everything is simply spotless. It is right in the centre of the village, just a few steps from a ski hire shop and the bus stop is you need to use it. Plenty of parking out the front too. The hostess is incredibly helpful and has a real sense... More

Alpbach prides itself on the authentic chalets dripping with flowers (no neon) and its spectacular Alpine beauty. Haus Sonnwend is spotless, lovely and across the street from an excellent restaurant in a hotel. The hostess/owner speaks perfect English and was very pleasant and suggested some memorable hiking. Altogether a wonderful experience.

Our return visit to Haus Sonnwend was just as we remembered....a very warm welcome, a wonderful location in a great mountain village ....and an excellent breakfast (extra..but worth every penny). We can not recommend Haus Sonnwend highly enough...even if the weather (albeit very wet in mid July) is unfriendly, you can be assured that Gitti the owner and Haus Sonnwend... More

Haus Sonnwend is in a lovely position and higher rooms at the front overlook the Alpbach valley. Little to add to other reviews about the friendly, helpful owner Gitti for whom nothing is too much trouble. Substantial building work was in progress during our three night stay but any inconvenience was minimal, compensated with a bottle of wine from Gitti... More

We absolutely love staying here. We come every year 2 or 3 times skiing and again in the summer for walking and cycling. Gitti is so nice and treats you like family. There are only good things to say and all of the other reviews already say them.

We have just returned today from staying at Haus Sonnwend in Alpbach. Like a previous reviewer, we have been to Alpbach for many, many years and stayed in several different places, all of which have been good. But Haus Sonnwend just has that "little bit extra". Nice rooms, good hot showers, spotlessly clean, delicious breakfast and perfectly located close to... More

We have recently returned from a skiing trip to Alpbach. We have stayed at Haus Sonnwend for a number of years along with our family and friends.
