Overview
The Sonnenhotel is a peaceful hotel packed with traditional Austrian charm. There’s lots of natural wood from the restaurant to the bedrooms, which each come with a balcony to make the most of those winter-wonderland views.
When it’s time to sink your skis into the snow, you can hop straight on the free bus to get to the Schlossalmbahn gondola or Angertal nursery slopes in around 15 minutes. And as for those off-slope hours, it’s all about relaxing and unwinding. Chit chat over drinks and play a game of pool in the bar, or slow things down with a swim, sauna and hot-tub soak in the hotel’s Sternenreich Spa.

About Bad Hofgastein
The Gasteinertal area offers around 198km of mainly intermediate-friendly skiing, with a mix of tree-lined trails and wide, sunny bowls. A funicular from town provides easy access to the mountains, where highlights include the long 10.5km red run from the Hohe Scharte, one of the longest in the Alps.
The valley towns, including Bad Hofgastein, have a relaxed, traditional atmosphere with cobbled centres, painted façades, and a more low-key après-ski scene focused on cafés and quiet bars. Accommodation is largely made up of well-regarded half-board hotels, often with strong wellness facilities.
Bad Hofgastein is especially known for its thermal spa culture, with the Alpentherme Gastein offering saunas, pools, and relaxation spaces that define the après-ski experience. For those wanting more activity off the slopes, snowshoeing trails and ice climbing on frozen waterfalls provide alternative winter adventures.
