Falkensteiner Camping Grubhof Reviews

Johann F.May 2026
Advantages
Lots of space, because there's nothing going on
Negatives
Many, see comment, especially annoyed by the double debit
Price-performance no longer fits at all
More than 30min check-in for a place on the tent meadow, which was already reserved and paid, double debit of the costs (refund has still not arrived), manageably clean toilet facilities, strange and opaque booking system including employees, who also have no control over it and that with just under... 60, - for a place on the tent meadow per night, on which after 3 days still broken branches of the last thunderstorm lie around including beer bottle and other garbage.

Experience report about our 5-day stay at the campsite
The campsite offers many advantages: beautiful surroundings, a pleasant number of guests and very well-kept facilities. Especially for tent users, it is one of the most recommendable places I have visited so far.

Advantages
Nice playground for the kids. Clean facilities.
Negatives
The gues service was very poor.
Poor guest service
We went to the reception the day before check out to ask how we should proceed with check out the morning after bacause we wanted to leave early and we had to pay the tourist tax. When entering the reception, 2 people sat by the computer and didnt even look up to say ”hello, we will assist you soon”.... After a few minutes we were assisted. The lady said we had not paid anything yet. We had to show our bank details but she only replied ”thats not our camping”. We insisted and said that its showing swedish currency. She then went to the back Office and closed the door. She came back and said ”which card did you pay with”. I showed my card and she replied with an angry tone ”visa, master card?”. She then asked a collegue again and they said we had to pay about 67 more euros. So i though, OK, now you found my payment. I asked them whats that 67 euros was for? She Said we only paid deposition. I replied that the amount of the booking said ”total” not partial payment. She got more angry/frustrated. They both wanted to see my booking in my phone. They read it many times and read out loud ”tourist tax not included”. I agreed and said ”yes we know and we want to pay that”. They still insisted that we should pay more for the pitch. According to them the pitch was 77 euro per night which the booking i made didnt show anything about. After much discussion one of the lady told the other to only charge the tourist tax. I also told them that the booking site is not very good if the amount doesnt reflect the reality. The older lady just replied in an irritated tone ”thats falkstiener”.

Our experience was really bad with the guest service and sad to see that they were not very friendly and service minded. We have not been at a falksteiner before and we will probably not visit one again due to this. They made us feel like really bad people that didnt want to do right, and they used a irritated tone from start to ending.

Advantages
Beautifully located pitch, clean and tidy. Good infrastructure.
Negatives
Meadow on booked pitch was not usable due to construction work.
Beautiful place - compromises in the organization
We were not informed in advance that the booked pitch could not be used in its full size. The meadow was cordoned off with barrier tape. We were able to spontaneously switch to the tent meadow. Early departure of a travel participant could not be charged in the booking system without major effort. This... is not very customer-friendly. Very inflexible. No price list to download from the website. Price information can only be obtained via a booking request. Final invoice is not transparent. There is only one all-inclusive price for the pitch. No breakdown into individual items (pitch fee, additional persons, electricity, etc.). This is not the gold standard.
Charging on the pitch is expensive.

Advantages
The location is stunning, the site is clean and beautiful and the sanitary facilities just excellent
Negatives
Arrival at reception was very bureaucratic. Even though most of the information had already been provided we still had to complete a form and then the receptionists could not read my writing! Though most of the information had already been provided we still had to complete a form and of course the receptionists could not read my writing! Of course I do understand that English is not your first language! Perhaps a copy of our passports would be easier. The receptionist who handled our arrival was not welcoming or friendly, sorry to say, but again language might be the problem?
Outstanding!
Overall a wonderful stay. The pitches were Horizontal which meant that we all generally had a private view of the lovely pastures or river. You can walk to the local villages which is a breathtaking view walk.

Advantages
The cleanliness and friendliness
Negatives
No disadvantages
Absolute recommendation
It was our first stay at the Grubhof and we were thrilled. Our original plan was to continue our journey after 2 nights but we extended our stay.
The area offers so many possibilities, whether you are traveling as a couple, as a family or with a dog. There is something for everyone. The site itself is... beautifully situated by the river with a view of the mountains. The large meadow in front of the caravan/motorhome offers plenty of space. The cleanliness is excellent and the staff are very courteous and friendly. The restaurant on the site is also highly recommended.
We are absolutely thrilled and will definitely be back.

Wat een mooie camping! Prachtige familie badkamers. Mooie uitzichten
Negatives
Het maakt niet zo uit waar je staat de plaatsen zijn allemaal Even prachtig. waardoor het prijsverschil wel groot is. En als bijna allen plaatsen bezet zijn heeft de douche weinig waterdruk meer.

Wij hebben genoten op deze camping! En kunnen hem aanraden.
Uitstapjes naar Salzburg zou met korting met een bus kunnen doen.

Abenteuer K.May 2026
Advantages
The sanitary facilities were very spacious and modern. The panorama and river were appealing.
Negatives
Unfriendly, overworked reception. Places bumper to bumper, we could hear every word our neighbor was saying. You feel like you're in a battery farm. Restless and bustling. No real plots qm2 indication very questionable. You only have a green strip between the rows so you feel like you're looking at at least 30 people. We will not be back.
Nothing for us
I think I have noted everything in the negative lines. The only places that are nice are the ones by the river, which cost a lot, and you are completely told how to park. We have a 6m van and felt very cramped. The worst thing was that so many eyes were watching you and you could hear every word your... neighbors were saying. That's just not our way of camping. What a pity. The campsite has so many awards. I can't understand it. I have not yet received an invoice by email as promised. There is still a lot to optimize.

Advantages
There are pitches of different sizes and the site has several modern and spacious sanitary buildings. The site is located on the Saalach (river), so you can cool off from time to time. The surrounding area is green and surrounded by mountains. You can start a hike right from the campsite.
Negatives
Our bathhouse required a chip card for shower access. We were neither informed of this nor given an access card. The pitches are laid out in rows. Street by street, so that you look at each other, even if the distance is a few meters. Perhaps some bushes would break up the line of sight. Everyone has to stand in the same place and you are not allowed to use the lawn as a "seat from the pitch".
Beautiful campsite with large grounds
Camping Grubhof is a beautiful and modern campsite. The site is spacious and has pitches of different sizes, so that everyone can find a place for their vehicle. There are several bathroom/sanitary buildings spread across the site so that nobody has to walk for too long. There are at least many (if not... all) pitches that have fresh water and waste water connections. These columns are combined with the electricity connection, which is very well done.
The surrounding area is green and surrounded by mountains, so you can start a hike right from the pitch.
All vehicles are parked in a row (always facing left or right) in the various streets. On the residential side, you always have the meadow, which is nice. However, we couldn't understand why you can't use the lawn as a seat from your pitch. You have to fix your awning to the very hard and stony ground, which costs material. In addition, you then look directly at the neighbor across the street (next street), which is the other way around. The distance is there, but we would have welcomed a break in the line of sight with a few bushes.
These are subjective things that certainly don't bother everyone, this was our feeling.

Advantages
We stayed at the campsite in May and were given a very warm welcome. The pitch was in a very nice location. You have a lot of space and are not in the way of your neighbors. The beautiful sanitary facilities with the option of drying your towels should be emphasized.
Negatives
What we didn't like so much was the Salzburger Saalachtal Card, which is not offered. It is offered by the campsite in July and August. In the months of May, June, September and October the card is not available, although it is offered throughout the entire period. There is also no possibility to buy it. The prices for a ride up and down have risen to such an extent that you have to think twice about whether it is still worth it. We also didn't like what was on offer in the restaurant. The daily menu is neither a daily menu nor a weekly menu. We ate there three times and the so-called menu of the day was the same each time. We will be back for another week in September. We don't yet know whether we'll eat there again. There simply isn't enough choice.
Very nice spacious campsite with great views
The campsite is very nice, with spacious pitches and very nice views. The pitches are beautifully laid out. The reception staff were extremely friendly and helpful. We felt very comfortable. We don't yet know whether we will go back to the restaurant. The offer is simply too monotonous. If you only want to go once or twice, it's okay. The sanitary facilities with plenty of space and the possibility to dry your towels are worth mentioning.

Advantages
The location of the campsite is very good.
Negatives
Insufficient time window for opening the mini store. Abolition of the one-way street regulation on the site.
Evaluate and stimulate
Not a matter for the camping site. Nevertheless: the Lofer local tax is unreasonably high. Fees are charged at every parking lot in the region. Even in the center of Lofer. THIS IS NOT GUEST-FRIENDLY, especially as NOT all regional bus routes were served. This fact could become an exclusion criterion... for us.
In addition, a transparent price list on the Grubhof website would be an advantage. Currently, prices are only available if you make a fake booking.
A free chemical toilet at the back of the site would of course also be an advantage.

Advantages
Facilities were excellant as was the pitch and grounds Lovely walks down by river. Ideal location for getting around to see wonderful sites and places
Negatives
Could do with an app to better track electricity using As you only have 5 watts per day..this though is added on in total for each day of stay. Ie 4 days equal 20 watts in total which can be used over your stay.
Mr
Enjoyed our stay and would recommen ideal location and plenty to see in the surrounding area

Advantages
The layout of the pitches and the sanitary building
Negatives
Missing chemical disposal point
Very pleasant stay despite bad weather
We were pleasantly surprised by the "airy" pitches with large green areas. We also found the supply station for each pitch an advantage. We were also impressed by the superb sanitary building, which we hope will remain in good condition. These very positive impressions were complemented by the always friendly and helpful staff! Conclusion: this campsite can only be recommended without any ifs and buts!!!
