Overview

Located in the centre of Niederau, a 2hr drive from Salzburg the Sonnschien hotel is lovely. The reception area (just a few steps from the bar) has a fab seating area perfect for chilling out after a days skiing. The bedrooms are immense! I was worried about having to share an alpine bed with my dad, but fear not we had a suite. There was a bedroom with a balcony, a separate lounge area with large double sofa bed and a bathroom bigger than my bedroom at home! The large dining room had plenty space for my wheelchair in fact we had four wheelchairs in it and still plenty room. There is a lift down to the spa area, which isn't as wheelchair friendly as there are steps into the sauna and steam room and no hoist for the two pools. Food was um....interesting. Definitely their take on some things. Mainly tasty, there was always a soup and salad available and three choices of main, but you did have to choose at breakfast. Be careful with drinks, beer was a lot cheaper than soft drinks.

Transport & Parking

I'm giving it 5 stars as we never had trouble parking, but i'm not sure how many spaces there was as it was usually covered in snow.

Access

Can't fault it! Corridors wide and smooth, only step I found was into the table football room.

Toilets

Giving it four as the toilets were very low. However I had anticipated this and contacted the hotel in advance asking for a toilet seat raiser. They were happy to help and got one brought in for me.

Staff

All were lovely, even if they did struggle with all our accents.
