Pension Hoffelner was not our cup of tea however if you like the feeling of staying in someone's home as a guest with the rules that go with that ( shoes off as you enter the premises, supper at 7pm and don't be late or you'll go without and between the hours of 10 and 4 don't expect any service because our hosts have their own life to lead!) you may well enjoy it.
The whole family found our hosts to be disingenuous and the forced conversation during supper with them verging on inane but that aside the Pension Hoffelner has comfortable rooms with many thoughtful extras.
The odd piece of fresh fruit at breakfast would have been nice and a little more attention to refilling the buffet but the food was reasonable and certainly not poor.
Rob and Joanna want their guests to have a wonderful stay but it needs to be on their terms.To suggest this is the best place to stay in the whole of Ramsau is surprising .

This was our second trip to the Hoffelner and our experience matched our first visit, ie. absolutely excellent. Joanna and Rob (and helpers) at the Hoffelner made us feel even more welcome than last time - it was more like a homecoming and much appreciated. It made our visit very relaxing. The food, as before, was just right, well balanced, well flavoured (Rob's soup was brilliant!) and not too much! It was also great to see Rob's Mum and Dad helping out with breakfasts etc., again - it really did feel just like being part of their family. The improvements made to "our room" since the last visit were also excellent. All credit to this family for providing a perfect place to stay. Thank you!

The welcome you get is outstanding, this is then supported by the beautiful rooms, stunning views and extremly tasty food. The owners Rob and Joanna made us feel very welcome and helped us out when we got stuck in the incredible amount of snow that had fallen. What a great experience. We have already started to recommend the Pension Hoffelner to our friends. Rob and Joanna go that extra mile to ensure you have a relaxing and fantatsic break.This is truly a place well worth visiting.

Our family of three had a wonderful Ski holiday at the Pension Hoffelner over New Years.
The room was immaculate and the property beautifully maintained.
Joanna and Rob as well as their lovely well mannered sons, Hugo and Henry were a delight and a lot of fun. Our daughter Jiselle took an instant liking to them.
Rob was an excellent Chef. Joanna and Rob could not do enough for us during our stay. They were excellent hosts.
We will certainly be back, we can't wait. Joanna helped us set up all of our skiing and reservations around the area.
We look forward to coming back again.
Thank you all for a great holiday. You are a terrific family !!
We loved your place. Highly recommended for families and couples alike.
Ciao from Lake Como !!
We will miss you all.

Robin, Eric and Jiselle
