Please help we are a group of fairly new skiiers - will Niederau definately be a good place to go to improve our techniques - we prefer nice wide blues. We usually go to Alpbach but find it a bit limiting, will be going for new year, is the snow good enough then? Also what hotel - prefer 3-4* and preferably a pool but not too expensive.

If you find Alpbach limiting, you will struggle with Niederau. Its a lot smaller.
Its a good place for beginners, and has a fanclub on this website, but if you want a variety of cruisy blues, its not the place for you. I suggest somewhere like Saalbach might be better for you.

Hehe, the irony!!

Go with Tony's suggestion of Saalbach Hinterglemm - Leogang. Mind you will need to do some cruisey reds to access the blues, but it's a milage area for sure!!

I stayed in Hinterglemm but it was the week before Christmas. Fantastic hotel - http://www.hotel-theresia.com/designhotel/de/willkommen/

it's a bit on the top end of the scale, but I can't praise it enough here, take a look at my blog. IMO Saalbach would be the better place to stay if hotel is not your top prio. More bars, eateries and generally livelier.
