Guest Reviews
- susan (10/5): - Man ist Gast. Man ist willkommen!!! Die Lage ist toll.
- Sami (9/5): -
- Beste (8/5): - Great location. You can ski out and ski back in; on the way back you just need to take the red slope number 21. The Hinterseer will be on your right before reaching the end of the slope. If you prefer not to ski this slope or choose another route, it’s about a 5-minute walk after getting off the main gondola. However, because of the incline, walking with skis can be a bit challenging.
The same challenge exists when returning in the evening after going out, but the comfort, cleanliness, atmosphere, and the ski-in/ski-out convenience make you forget about the uphill walk. Experiencing Ernst Hinterseer’s skiing legacy while staying here is also a special touch. The people were very kind.
If I come back, this would definitely be my choice again. I would have preferred a flat route for the way back. Otherwise, everything was great.

- Leendert (10/5): Can't think of anything negative about this place. -
- wayne (9/5): Going back again. The owners were one of the most helpful and friendly people in the world. - The owners treated us like locals and very friendly and helpful. We felt like part of the family. The view was as advertised, the hertiage and history of the place was fully on displayed. The staff was friendly. The ski room was very well facilitated, every equipement was dry the next day. Even though the bathrooms were abit outdated, it was maintained well and decorated nicely that makes you enjoy the old style. The rooms were exceptional with plenty of spaces and heating. Even though the bathrooms were abit outdated, it was maintained well and decorated nicely that makes you enjoy the old style. Not enough snow, so they closed the run and we could only ski out and not ski in directly. Not the hotel's issue.

- Ciara (10/5): -
- James (10/5): - Staff and owners plus location. Nothing
- michael (9/5): Nice quite lodgings with friendly staff - All was good. Location was good and could ski in/out. Breakfast was typical European breakfast, however they do serve eggs cooked to order. Kitchen staff, front desk, and owner were very accommodating. This property is dedicated to the Hinterseer family, Olympic medal winner Ernst and Bundesliga footballer Lukas. Did not have a car and walk to town was up/down a large hill. Thought the trip was too short for taxi.
- Rainer (10/5): nette Pension mit sehr freundlichen Wirtsleuten - super Lage direkt an der Piste
- urban (9/5): -
- Libor (10/5): - Stylový, trochu "vintage" penzion s příběhem Ernsta Hinterseera, super umístěný rovnou na sjezdovce.
- Hana (10/5): - Letos již počtvrté v tomto ubytování a jako vždy naprostá spokojenost. Úžasní a milí hostitelé, skvělé ubytování, výborné snídaně. Naprostá spokojenost, a proto máme rezervaci už zase i na příští rok. Není co vytknout.
- Alex (10/5): A nice stay in a genuine alpine inn - Very close to the main ski lift, good breakfast and a genuine alpine inn feel. There was nothing negative about the property
- Thomas (10/5): -
- Erika (5/5): - Bescheidenes Frühstücksangebot. Jeden Tag das gleiche. Nichts typisches aus Tirol.

- Alban (10/5): -
- Bo (10/5): Nice view, nice room, nice breakfast and nice service - nothing to complain about. -

- Szalóki (9/5): Nice pension, located in the bottom of Hahnekamm, about 1 km from city center. Very quiet place. - Excellent breakfast.
- Kirsten (10/5): My stay at Pension Hinterseer was a peaceful and heartwarming experience, with thoughtful details, lovely hosts, a beaut - What a lovely place! Pension Hinterseer is in a top location — quiet, yet just a short walk from the center of Kitzbühel. You can really feel the love and care in all the little details throughout the house.
Our room was comfortable and beautifully kept, with a nice balcony overlooking the mountains. The hosts were incredibly kind and welcoming, making us feel right at home.
And the garden — absolutely wonderful! Having breakfast outside in the sunshine, surrounded by flowers and mountain views, was a real treat. It felt like a little celebration every morning. I would definitely stay here again!
- Robert (8/5): Very good - The appartment worked well for us both as a bedroom and as a meeting place for my family. Sauna was a nice add-on. The hotel is well placed for access to the slopes provided you are a good enough skier to get down the 21 red (it is not easy in slush conditions!) Personally I found the decoration of the rooms a bit dark for my taste.
- Vladyslav (7/5): Good - It is a perfect place with an amazing view. such a cozy and comfortable hotel with really friendly owners. So close to the elevator and the center of the town. The hotel is not new, but all envervement well-gromed and tidy.
- Emma (10/5): Exceptional -
- Niamh (9/5): Superb -
- Alfonso (10/5): Exceptional - Place to be in Kitz.
Ski in Ski out.
Hinterseer family very warm and close. Walk up from Kitz downtown a bit tough. Too steep but manageable. The price to pay of being in the middle of the slopes.
Helpful if dinner is too big.
- Tim (10/5): Exceptional -
- Hiram (9/5): Wunderbar! - Pension Hinterseer has a great location just up the hill from the Hahnenkammbahn gondola. There is a large room for ski storage (including boot driers) and for gearing up. Step out of that room to the backyard, ski about 500 feet down the hill, and then walk another couple hundred feet to the gondola. Most of the ski runs are further up the mountains from the top of the main gondola from town, so you likely won't be on that same gondola for the rest of your ski day. To get back to the pension, ski down run #21 almost to the bottom. This will take you to within about 300 feet of the pension, on the opposite side of the road from where you started in the morning. If #21 is beyond your skill level, you can also take the gondola back down. There is convenient ski rental and service right at the base of the gondola.
Breakfast is very nice with made-to-order eggs each morning. There's a wood burning fireplace in the common area that is great for an après-ski beverage with other guests. (The hosts will usually have some firewood ready; just light it up.) There is a large patio area that overlooks the gondola cars going up the mountain and the valley below. There are two saunas; a traditional stove type as well as an infra-red type. There is plenty of free parking right in front of the pension. Kitzbühel town center is about a 10-minute walk. The uphill return trip is a little steep, but that's good for you after the schnitzel you'll have had for dinner.
Besides all that, what really makes this pension special are the hosts, Kersten and Guido. They are very relaxed and welcoming, and they can assist with recommendations and dinner reservations which can be difficult on Sundays and Mondays when many restaurants are closed. The Hinterseer family has a great history of competitive skiing, and the pension is filled with trophies, medals and historic pictures.

- Corina (9/5): Superb - Great location, can ski right out the door. Friendly, clean, beds were comfortable, wifi worked. What more can you ask for? The hotel was great. There were not a lot of restaurants in the area which was a bit inconvenient but we came to ski.
- Kaan (10/5): Exceptional -

- Eric (10/5): I would highly recommend Pension Hinterseer for anyone wanting to spend a few relaxing days in Kitzbuhel and looking for - A beautiful pension with stunning views across the Kitzbuhel valley. Immaculately maintained by the hosts. Fabulous breakfast served on the outdoor patio with beautiful views. The rooms are well-appointed, are very clean and have balconies facing across the valley. The pension is very close to the bottom of the Hahnenkamm cable car. The only minor point is the steep hill which you have to walk up from Kitzbuhel centre. However, the reward is incredible views from the property.
- Battle (10/5): Fabulous location & views! Comfortable accommodation with friendly hosts. - Fantastic location & excellent accommodation. Very friendly staff & owners. N/A
- Antonia (10/5): Charming guesthouse in a great location - Great location with beautiful view, cozy rooms, nice staff, and great breakfast
- Karin (10/5): Spotless clean, great breakfast -
- John (10/5): Beautiful and quiet 12 room Inn located steps from the gondola in Kitzbuhel - The owner of the Inn does a wonderful job preparing a homemade breakfast. The food was wonderful (I had scrambled eggs she prepared for me) and the facilities allowed us to eat outside on a beautiful patio overlooking the ski area in Kitzbuhel. I could have used one extra pillow on the bed but that is a minor thing and Americans seem to like more pillows than Europeans so this was not a negative.
- _-chris-_ (10/5): A wonderful 10 days spent. - The Pension Hinterseer is styled in the '60s and '70s with classy look elements (photographs, trophies) relating to the glory years of the talented and well-known Olympic medallist Ernst Hinterseer. The overall design fits in perfectly and conveys the best atmosphere of those years.
The rooms are beautifully simple and elegant, each with a balcony reflecting the beautiful views over Kitzbuhel and surrounding peaks, the beds very comfortable and the bathrooms relatively spacious.
Excellent breakfasts, accompanied by the red cat (Flokie) made each day start wonderfully.
Our host was Kerstin, whose friendliness, openness and willingness to help guests with their everyday things (e.g. recommend good restaurants or which mountain trails are worth hiking) makes it with a heavy heart to leave this wonderful place.
- Thomas (9/5): Superb -
- Timothy (9/5): Authentic Austrian ski experience. - Perfect location with easy access to skiing and walking to town.
