Beautiful Hotel - Highly Recommended

10.0

This Hotel was where we spent a week on a ski package holiday. It was just outside the town (bus needed to get in and out of town dues to steep road) Luckily our residents status gave us free travel throughout our stay. It was well situated for the ski gondola, just a couple of minutes away, or for the ski bus, which tok you into town or to other resorts. We weren't skiing but just enjoying a wonderful break in the mountains. This Hotel was superb. Super friendly staff, excellent food choices, excellent facilities, and excellent rooms. Highly recommended in all aspects.

Brilliant week at Hotel Daxer with a school group

10.0

We recently brought a school group of 60 to stay. The hotel couldn’t do enough for us. Facilities, food, rooms, staff were all fantastic. Our party had different evening activities organised and the staff were very helpful in assisting with these. The facilities are superb: - hot drinks/cakes/soft drinks available throughout the day. Excellent variety of food (including gluten free). Pupils were able to make a packed lunch for their day on the slopes. - Beautiful swimming pool/spa area with breathtaking views. - walking distance to the lift/ski hire shop. - comfy, clean and modern rooms - amazing views! - board games available to use (helped those who needed some rest time from skiing!) - staff very helpful and friendly Thank you Gartenhotel Daxer we hope to return in the future.

The Daxer, Zell am See - exceptional !

For the third year running, we’ve just returned from another spectacular stay at The Daxer—and honestly, I cannot recommend this hotel enough. Family-run, with the most welcoming atmosphere, it perfectly suits couples, singles, families and groups alike. We’ve booked through Crystal each year and have never been disappointed. It’s hard to know where to begin, because everything is just so good! We arrived late in the evening to find a lovely buffet and refreshments thoughtfully laid out for us—a truly warm welcome after a long journey. The next morning, we were up early for lessons and greeted by a beautiful breakfast buffet with a wide selection of cereals, continental options, fresh fruit and hot dishes. The scrambled eggs are absolutely to die for! Add to that a delicious variety of fresh breads and plenty of coffee to set you up for the day. Evenings are just as enjoyable. You can either help yourself to the buffet or choose from three freshly prepared options—vegetarian, meat or fish—cooked to order and served to your table. We tried a mix of both, and everything was consistently delicious. As someone who is gluten-free, I was especially touched by how accommodating the team were—they really went above and beyond to provide suitable options wherever possible. In fact, the salad bar alone was so fresh and inviting, I’d have happily eaten from it every night! The location is ideal too—ski in and out, or just a short 10-minute walk to the lifts once you’re sorted in the heated boot room. Returning from the slopes around 4pm, the homemade cakes, a hot savoury option, and a selection of hot drinks are such a welcome treat. Even better, there was homemade gluten-free cake available too 😋. You can relax at your allocated table or enjoy the cosy little bar. If you’re looking to unwind further, the hotel spa is simply wonderful. The brand-new pool area offers the most stunning views, with plenty of space to relax, alongside a fantastic selection of saunas. New this year is an adults-only spa area with saunas, steam room and tranquil relaxation spaces—truly five-star facilities with views to match ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. Our room (214, an upgraded option) was just perfect, with a private balcony overlooking the lake and mountains. The beds are incredibly comfortable, the décor is beautiful, and everything is kept immaculate throughout your stay. The bathroom was well-equipped too—with a great shower, heated rail, hairdryer, and importantly, a magnifying mirror! On a previous visit, we stayed in a family room, and the large sofa bed was ideal for our son. The free high-speed WiFi was excellent throughout. But what truly makes The Daxer so special is the people. Every single member of the team—from housekeeping and kitchen staff to bar, reception and waiting staff—contributed to making our stay exceptional. Their warmth, friendliness and genuine willingness to help stood out every day. We were especially impressed by the number of languages spoken—it really reflects their dedication to making every guest feel at home. A truly wonderful team, and a place we will return to again and again.

A great hotel

Just back from a week at hotel Daxter and it was exactly what we needed. This was our first ever skiing trip and I wanted a hotel that was conveniently located to make things as hassle free as possible. Hotel Daxter is literally a 3 minute walk from the bottom of the ski lift and ski hire shop, so after a long day of skiing it’s great to only have a short walk back to the hotel. There’s a great heated boot room with plenty of space for boots and skis/snow boards. We didn’t arrive at the hotel until late in the evening and were concerned that everything would be closed, but we needn’t have worried as the hotel put on a hot buffet for the late arrivals so the kids had plenty to eat. From 3-4.30pm the hotel puts on hot drinks and cake for the adults as well as pasta for the kids. Which is a really nice touch when you get back with hungry children (the bar is also open if you need something a bit stronger) We were half board and my son is a vegetarian so I was a little nervous over the food situation, but there was plenty for him to eat from both the buffet and the evening menu. The only thing is a lot of the buffet is not labelled, so if you have allergies you’d have to ask the staff for the ingredients. The hotel has a great pool which we spent plenty of time in. There’s also several saunas. The rooms weren’t the largest but we had everything we needed and pretty much spent all our time on the mountain. Towels, shampoo and shower gel are all provided in the room. As our first ever family holiday skiing hotel Daxter was exactly what went wanted. Close to the slopes and lifts, warm and welcoming staff, great food and plenty of amenities to keep the kids and adults happy. We will definitely be coming back! Plus if you get the Alpin ski pass it gives you access to the local buses which stop right by the hotel and go to all the other local ski areas

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding stay – one of the best Ski hotels we’ve ever experienced

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding stay – one of the best Ski hotels we’ve ever experienced We had a fantastic stay at Gartenhotel Daxer and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it – truly one of the best hotels we’ve stayed in. The evening dining options were excellent, with a great choice each night. You can either enjoy the buffet or pre-select your main course (meat, fish, or vegetarian), which you conveniently choose each morning at breakfast via a QR code menu and form. The salad starters and soups were outstanding, with plenty of variety and consistently high quality. Afternoon cakes and hot snacks were a real bonus too, including soup and savoury options, a lovely touch after a day on the slopes. The hotel bar was very reasonably priced with excellent service. A special mention must go to Robert, who looked after us all week, an absolute credit to the hotel and someone who genuinely enhances the guest experience. Our room was one of the best we’ve had: very spacious, comfortable, and well-equipped with everything you’d expect. We did bring our own travel kettle, which proved useful, but otherwise the room was excellent. Connie at Reception is brilliant friendly, knowledgeable, and always happy to share local tips, which really added to how enjoyable our stay was. The location is ideal for skiing, with the ski lift only around 200 metres from the hotel. The in-house ski lockers are excellent, although for a small additional fee you can also rent a locker directly at the lift for extra convenience (purchase from Brundl Sports). Overall, this is an outstanding hotel with fantastic food, great staff, excellent facilities, and a superb location. A five-star recommendation all round
