Sport-Wellnesshotel Bichlhof

We attended the New Year's gala evening dinner with live music at the Hotel der Bischlhof on December 31st. The hotel site and atmosphere seemed warm and elegant. After registering at reception we finally retreated to the inside bar with our drinks. A waiter came over quickly and asked us what we were doing there. Only after giving our name for second time and being checked as verified dinner guests did he top up our drinks. We were then taken to a table in a large dining table next to the kitchen entrance. Maybe we booked late and got the last tahle. However it seemed a makeshift location because there was barely room behind my chair for waiters to pass serving food. My chair was knocked by waiters repeatedly while dining - twice by the aforementioned "Basil Fawlty"-like waiter - without apology. Other gems from this waiter while dining: "Are you playing with your food or eating?" to my adult daughter when removing plates from the table. When we fled to reception after the dinner to settle the bill we were met again by Basil Fawlty " You only paid part of the dinner and must now pay the rest". We explained this was why we were at reception - to settle the bill. This might be a quirky and amusing "lost in translation" experience at Euro 30 per head. However we paid almost Euro 200 per head excluding wine at a four star hotel. In addition the billed "live music" turned out to be a DF with piped music. A nightmare dining experience which failed the hotel and the price tag.
