Stayed here for a week while skiing in Wagrain. I have been coming to Wagrain for 30 years and this the only time I was pleased to be going home. The hotel is beautiful, perfectly situated 100 steps from the Graffenberg cable car and has fabulous facilities including a stunning spa and pool. The ski lockers are brilliant, and the room was stunning. The staff were friendly and generally helpful. The Covid policies were good and so while I had to cancel last year, I was happy to re book. It is very expensive with our room costing Euro 470 a night to include breakfast, a ski snack and dinner. This sounded like good value, and I was happy to pay this. On arrival at 1:45pm the room was not ready, and I had to wait. This was no big deal, but I was surprised not to be offered a drink from the array of glasses and drinks behind reception which looked like welcome drinks. My first real issue was the buffets. This is all that is included and on arrival there was no choice, and we were required to use the Austrian restaurant. We went to the bar upstairs and sat drinking for around 45 minutes before heading downstairs to eat. We were shouted at from the bar as despite giving them my room number, I had not signed the bill. This was done in full view of many other guests and was rather embarrassing. This was a poor start and then the food was mediocre, there was absolutely no service and they charged me for the tap water I ordered!! They charge for all tap water! While the room was stunning and the bed comfortable, the mattress was covered in a plastic mattress protector like you might find in some institution. It made for an uncomfortable night’s sleep. The bottled water provided on day 1 was never replenished and when I asked at reception was advised it was a one off. They did provide a further bottle, but I bought my own at a costs of 67 cents for 150ml. Further water was provided later in the week when I complained about the stay. You had to book to eat at night, but the lack of staff meant it was either 6.30pm or 8pm. When paying almost Euro 500 a night I want to relax, not run my life to a timetable and especially an artificial one set by the hotel. I tried to book for the latter part of the week and all that was available was the Austrian buffet from the first night. At this stage I complained, and the manager arranged for me to eat where I wanted. There is a small a la carte called “place to meat” but this is at an additional cost. The food and service were as I would have expected but not any better than many of the places to eat in town. Breakfast was also a buffet and again no service. They did not even provide coffee at the table, and you had to return again and again if you wanted an additional cup. The ski snack was an unnecessarily extensive spread. But while I expected a hot chocolate and a piece of cake the offer was more like a light buffet lunch but with nothing whatever to drink. I would not go back. It is an expensive hotel bein
