Not much to add to other reviews on the merits of this lovely place, but an important caveat (see below).

Key positives:

Traditional accommodation very well done, with very good food (especially good breakfasts) in an exceptionally stunning setting on the slopes above St Johann. 

One particular thoughtful and clever touch: in traditional fashion the rooms only have basins, so toilets and showers are shared. But they provide nice dressing gowns, which makes the journey to and from the shared facilities much more comfortable.

Only (important) caveat. The website provides information on getting there but it is currently pretty well hidden (look under "welcome"). But here are the key points.

1. You can ONLY get there in winter by skiing down a fairly steep intermediate slope. So if you are a beginner I would NOT recommend staying here, unless you can negotiate special arrangements.
2. On arrival you can leave your bags at the bottom station of the cable car and they will be delivered later in the day. This means you need to arrive kitted up to ski! (we didn't realise this!)
3. On leaving the reverse happens, your bags are delivered back to the cable car station. But bear in mind that if you are in a hurry you may need to stand in quite a long queue of skiers to retrieve them! (possibly you could ask for the bags to be left somewhere more accessible - we only found out about this on our way home).

However,  apart from the above warningm, we'd recommend this place very strongly. 

A final recommendation: get up early enough to ski down before the lifts open at 8.30. Having the piste to yourself is an extraordinary experience - and breakfast is served till 1030 so you can get an appetite for the excellent breakfast.

Wonderful place: just be sure you read the instructions on how to get there (and back)!

What a wonderful 2 nights recently spent at the Angerer Alm. Annemarie Foidl is the perfect hostess, proprietor and wine expert. The rooms are comfortable, the deck is the perfect place to enjoy an afternoon brew or glass of fine Austrian wine, and the views are breathtaking. We enjoyed delicious meals in the Alm's restaurant, paired perfectly with wine from Annemarie's wine cellar. The hiking trails are well maintained and the views of the Alps are spectacular. Along the way enjoy the gentle ringing of the cow bells. Midway up to the summit you'll find the Hirschbichl, where you can enjoy a view of the summit from their deck while you dine on some traditional Austrian food and beverage. The Alm is the midway stop for the cable car which runs from the charming town of St Johann up to the Hirschbichl. A perfect start to our European vacation.

A gem in the Tirol

In recent years we have enjoyed hiking near several huts (hütte) in the Austrian Alps.  In addition to hiking, we also enjoy fine dining and exploring regional wines.  To our delight, Angerer Alm, under the direction of proprietor and acclaimed wine expert Annemarie Foidl brings together hiking, fine dining and wine exploration in a beautiful setting.  Angerer Alm is located on the Sankt Johann side about one-third of the way up Kitzbuhel Horn (mountain).  Hiking on well-maintained trails with superb panoramic alpine views begins just outside the Alm.  Both mid-way to the summit at Hirschbichl and at the summit at Gipfelhaus am Kitzbüheler Horn, we enjoyed hearty food and refreshing local brews.  If only all of our hiking adventures had such nice rewards!

Each day after hiking, we relaxed on the deck and enjoyed great views, local beer and refreshing Austrian Wines.  We opted for three- and five- course meals in the Alm’s restaurant.  Our appetites were rewarded with delicious and fresh pan-European cuisine with each course personally paired to Austrian wine by Annemarie.  Before dinner the first night, Annemarie took us on a tour of the wine cellar (where we could have stayed for quite some time!).  Have your ever seen a bottle of 1795 Madiera?  Yes, her cellar has substantial breadth going well beyond regional selections.

Rooms are comfortable and have nice views mountain views.  Traditional Austrian breakfasts prepared us well for the day’s hiking.  Angerer Alm is one of those gems hidden from the view of most international travelers.  We enjoyed this fine experience owing to Bavarian friends who share our interests and knew about Angerer Alm.  I did not need to use my primitive German language skills as Annemarie is multi-lingual ….and she speaks the language of wine in such a friendly and knowledgeable way.

Next time we’ll come back in winter to enjoy both skiing in Kitzbuhel ….and the hospitality and dining at Angerer Alm.

Appealing Austrian Alpine Accommodation

We had an inkling it would be good but in our naivety, we hadn't realised quite how good.  The setting is spectacular and the food and wine to die for. Anne-Marie and her team are the most fantastic hosts creating a relaxed and enjoyable ambiance.  They have found their vocation and luckily, are delighted to share their little slice of heaven with their guests. We are already planning a return visit ...

Charming and convivial!

We caught the cable car up from Sankt Johann and decided to walk down and decided to stop for a beer.  The place is just above the middle station for the chair lift, the views were stunning.  First impressions were good with a good atmosphere and loads of room.  I decide I needed the toilets, so went searching, the place is like a rabbit warren, a warm and welcoming rabbit warren.  The waitress delivered menus and beer.  The menus were in Austrian so were asked for help and sorted ourselves out.  Beer was lovely, food was very good.  There was a wedding party gathering, guests and musicians, tables were laid, what a great place for a reception.
Positioning, service, place itself was all great and very comfortable.  To quote 'biggles' Gemutlichkeit.
