Domizil - Kaprun

Q Hotel Maria Theresa is a very comfortable hotel. The rooms, bathrooms are very simple yet worked just perfectly for our friend and my son and I. The service staff is quite pleasant. The breakfast was more than adequate and the hotel has quite a lively bar, at times with a dj. The location is great, just a short walk to the lifts or any restaurant in town. We would absolutely stat here again.

This hotel was very nice. Only drawback is that it is a very steep uphill hike to get to the ski lifts. This is the case for most of the Bad Gastein hotels, however. I recommend renting ski equipment from a shop near the slopes that will let you leave the equipment there overnight. I cannot imagine trying to make the hike up the hill in ski boots carrying skis.

WE WERE WELCOMED AT THE HOTEL WITH OPEN ARMS. THEY PROVIDE A TOUR OF THE PLACE WHERE YOU'LL SEE THE POOL, WALKING POOL (FOR THOSE WHO DO LONG HIKES IN THE AREA), SUANAS, BATHS, MASSAGE ROOM, AND GAME ROOMS. BREAKFAST WAS OUTSTANDING AND THE VIEW IS EXTRAORDINARY. ROOM WAS BASIC - NO FRILLS. PARKING IS LIMITED BUT WE NEVER HAD ANY PROBLEM. HOTEL IS LOCATED WAY ABOVE TOWN SO BE PREPARED TO WALK A BIT TO GET INTO TOWN.

My wife, parents, and kids stayed at Rader overnight and had a great experience. The hotel was very clean and comfortable and the location was excellent. Bockstein is a very scenic little town and a nice place for a walk. The hostess/operator of the hotel speaks English (which is fortunate because we don't speak much German) and helped us find a place nearby for a hike. Breakfast was simple but nice - coffee, rolls, yogurt, cheese, and other typical continental breakfast items. There is a restaurant about 100 m away where we enjoyed a good dinner. Although our road map seems to show that Bockstien is at the end of the road, the hotel hostess explained that cars can be put on a train that goes south and connects with the road on the other side of hte mountains.

Everyone was so nice! All of the food was awesome. We thought it was close to the train station, but due to the terrain, it isnt. They offer to pay for your taxi though.
