Frühstückspension Bergheil

Stayed here as part of a Crystal package. Arrived quite late but received a lovely friendly welcome from Horst who is one of the nicest hosts we’ve stayed with in Austria (we’ve visited a lot). The pension is perfectly located - bus stops and ski hire 2/3 min walk, bars and restaurants 2-10 min walk but in a quiet location. We had a good sized room with a balcony. Hallway with wardrobes and a safe and off it a large bathroom and bedroom. The beds were comfy and the furniture seemed quite new. The bathroom needs updated as there was a shower over the bath but no screen or curtain. However it was all very clean and our bin was emptied every day. Breakfast was from 7-10am which we were pleased about as we like an early start on a ski hol. The breakfast room could get quite busy as it’s small and the pension seemed full but we only waited for a table on one occasion. Breakfast inc tea, coffee & herbal teas, cornflakes and muesli, yoghurt, fruit, Semmel rolls, toast, cheese, tomatoes, boiled eggs, jans, spreads etc. Horst worked very hard at breakfast making sure nothing ran out, fetching drinks, clearing tables etc. and always greeted us with a cheery good morning. Would definitely stay here again

We booked Pension Bergheil as part of a Crystal ski holiday. It was a lovely little pension, conveniently located for exploring Kaprun. The ski bus stop (bus 660 to Maiskogel, Zell am See and the Kitzteinhorn) were only a short walk (2-300m). The stop for the local town bus (also going to the Maiskogel and Kitzteinhorn) was just on the corner from the pension. Buses were frequent especially mornings and evenings. The pension was simple but provided all we needed for a bed and breakfast stay. Horst, the owner, was friendly and nothing was too much trouble. There was enough choice at breakfast (cereals, juices, rolls and bread, eggs, tea/coffee, jams, meats and cheeses). Horst would also cook eggs on request. The rooms were a little dated but were clean and cleaned daily. It was mostly quiet except for some noisy people in the outdoor pool in the hotel opposite (only one night). Kaprun was easy to traverse on foot and had a good selection of places to eat and drink. The pension also had a small ski and boot storage area and the boot racks were heated. All in all we would recommend Pension Bergheil as a place to stay and, should we return to Kaprun, would not hesitate to stay there again.

Great location. Village D bus 50m to right. Glacier and Zell am See bus stop 100m to left. Plenty of excellent local restaurants walkable. Room was clean, warm, spacious and quiet, if a little old fashioned. Breakfast was continental - range of cheeses, meats, boiled eggs on request, breads and cereals. Ski and boot room small but never busy. Sauna was available on request but we didn't try it. Owner was very helpful and pleasant.
