"The Pension Schattberg is a 5 minutes' walk to the Schattberg gondola in the resort centre and just 100m from the Wallehenlift. It is a warm and friendly bed and breakfast guesthouse with sauna and steam room facilities as well as a bar and games room." The Pension Schattberg is a bit of a dark horse when it comes to accommodations in Saalbach. If you’re looking for a luxury hotel with all whistles and bells then look elsewhere, but if you want great value - with all the essentials - in one of Austria’s most fun resorts then this is a great choice. The Schattberg can be ski-to-door for good skiers, in the right conditions. Otherwise its only a few minutes to and from the Schattberg Xpress on foot and a little further into town – just be aware the walk back to the pension is a little bit uphill, so make sure you do your lunges before you set off. The Hofmann family have created a nice, warm and homely atmosphere here. Overall the Schattberg is simply furnished and the rooms have a fairly typical Alpine feel to them, but there are a few nice touches dotted about that keep it feeling fresh. And as a bonus there’s a small wellness area with a sauna and steam room for re-energising after a good ski.
