Sankt Jakob in Defereggen Holiday Rentals

"Lovely hotel with both a traditional part of the hotel and a brand new part including a state of the art spa which opened in December apparently. The spa area was amazing, indoor and outdoor pools (both a little cold!), outdoor jacuzzi (also a little cold!), lots of relaxation rooms with loungers, two saunas of different temperatures, one 90 degree huge panoramic sauna which can easily seat 40-50 people, the other a 60 degree one which is hardly used. Suprisingly the new complex doesnt have a steam room but there is one in the original part of the hotel on the ground floor. Please note, the top floor sauna area, is an adult only nude area! The rooms in the original part of the hotel are very traditional, with a balcony overlooking the mountain range. They are comfortable but nothing fancy or modern. The only down side is that the rooms do not have any tea or coffee making facilities which i did miss in the mornings and evenings. The food both at breakfast and evenings are all very good and plentiful. The location is also situated within walking distance to the main high street including apres ski bars. One tip i would recommend is hiring a ski locker at the top of the Penkenbahn so that you leave all your ski gear at the top of the main gondola and walk back to the hotel in normal shoes! This is well worth 24 euros for a two person locker! Would definitely recommend and return to the same hotel is heading to Mayrhofen. "

"Very clean and quiet hotel 5 min walk from main downtown strip. No spa / pool but otherwise lovely."

"We really enjoyed this place, as it was spacious comfortable and clean! I would definitely stay there again!"

"I haven't felt like I overpaid this much for a hotel in over 5 years. Do yourself a favor and stay somewhere else. Service terrible with people at front desk and the hostess at the restaurant. And it is not ski-in/ski-out. It is right off a busy road and near the train line, not a ski resort. 15 minute drive to 3 Zinnen."

"Wir hatten 4 wunderschöne Ski Tage, Tiefgarage 200m entfernt war sehr praktisch und preislich fair, Skischuhwärmer im Keller ist vorhanden. Man benötigt natürlich immer Skibus oder Auto mit entsprechenden (Zeit-)Aufwand, dafür kann man Abends zu Fuß in die schöne Innenstadt zum Essen. Zimmer waren groß und sehr sauber, sehr freundliches Personal, gutes Frühstück ab 07:00, Cappuccino u.ä. wird von der Siebträgermaschine liebevoll und frisch zubereitet. "

"Beautiful hotel and spa with friendly and accommodating staff. They speak multiple languages with ease, including English, making it easy to get advice for things to do in the area. Fantastic breakfast. "

"spacious room more like a suite, excellent amenities including in-room sauna and hiking bags/poles. Excellent breakfast selection and very good set menus for dinners."

"Our stay was perfect. The staff was exceptional and went out of their way to be helpful, friendly and welcoming. The hotel is lovely and our room had a great view. The food was excellent. We enjoyed a great breakfast and had a drink in the bar midday. Highly recommend for anyone to stay in the area. "

"Interior design is really beautiful and elegant, room was modern, spacious and cozy. Delicious dinner and breakfast come with a huge choices and excellent quality. Amazing facilities and ambience, great hospitality from well-trained staffs. It was beyond my expectations, highly recommended. "
