I went to Mt Buller with my friend for 3 nights and we stayed at this hotel. I usually like 5 star hotels, which this one wasn't but it had such a cosy, comfortable and cleanliness about it that I really enjoyed it. Love the European design influenced by the original owner who still operates it as far as I... More

Our stay was not at the best of times as it was the school holidays and Mt. Buller was packed with kids. It snowed so heavily and the tree boughs were groaning under the weight of the snow. Long glistening icicles hung from the eaves. Hans came around with his accordion at dinner and everyone had to stay to celebrate... More

Stayed for 5 nights in August and we had a great time. Staff very friendly all over the Hotel. The guys in the Ski Hire Shop in the Hotel were great, very helpful and friendly. We were with 2 other couples and all are rooms were different even though we booked the Apline Spa Rooms. Ours was older with pine... More

Pension Grimus is a proper Austrian chalet on piste at Mt Buller, Victoria. It is less than 50m from the main 6-man chairlift and across the main piste from several good restaurants. It also boasts it's own restaraunt, Kaptains, which is highly rated on the mountain. We opted for the B&B package in an 'Alpine Spa Room' - very well... More

First of all Mount Buller is a total rip off. If you want to spend money on a ski holiday - do it properly: go to Europe, New Zealand or Canada. All hotels are overpriced with little or no value for money. Non of these could survive in an international skiresort. Pension Grimus still has a nice old world feel.... More

We stayed at Pension Grimus while in the snow last July and loved it! It was much cheaper than other hotels so we were expecting it to be bad, but it was great. The website did not advertise that there was a free hot breakfast, so to our delight we ate every morning! The breakfast was fantastic- you ordered what... More

This is definitely the best location on Mt Buller. A few steps to the Ski School and Holden Chairlift. This hotel has the old world charm of an european ski lodge. We stayed in room 15 which had a seperate sleeping area for the kids. Basic furnishings etc, but very clean and everything we needed. The kids loved the computer... More

My husband and I stayed at the Pension Grimus last week – our first trip to the snowfields of Victoria. We stayed in Room 8 – with a spa and balcony. The room itself was large, with a king bed (made of 2 singles zipped together) , a trundle of 2 singles, a couch and dining table as well as... More

We have just returned home from a holiday to Victoria which included a trip to Mount Buller to enjoy the snow. I will now giveTrip Advisor reviews a little more merit, as before I booked at Pension Grimus all indications told us that there was not a lot of happy clients. Unfortunately our stay at Mount Buller will not be... More

How do you criticize an icon of Mt Buller? First remember that criticism can be positive as well as negative. The staff are absolutely terrific, as is the location & ski hire. No complaints there, Hans & Loti Grimus. But as a recent Mt Buller News had put it in reference to Hans and a couple of other Buller old... More
