Vorderglemm is at the beginning of the valley and Hiterglemm is almost at the far end.
My gues is you may suffer starvation with the former and over-intoxicated in the latter, meaning little choice of restaurant in Voderglemm and full of bars and pubs in Hinterglemm.
Skiing wise Voderglemm is better situated because you can ski one of its branches to Leogang which may be too far to cover in one day from Hinterglemm. If you can loop round the famous Voderglemm/Saalbah/Hinterglemm Valley in a day you can do so at any point of the loop and so Hinterglemm is just as good as Voderglemm as the starting point. The shops, restaurants and night life are mainly in Saalbach (middle between Voderglemm and Hinterglemm) and Hinterglemm.
Hinterglemm is one of the most vibrant Apres place I have seen in the Alps.
Perhaps I didn't look hard enough I couldn't recall seeing anything in Voderglemm except it was the first chairlift station to be greeted when coming from outside the valley. I would not be surprised if the hotel is situated quite far from Vorderglemm and use its name because it is the one nearest to it. There are a few hotels at Viehhofen before one reaches Vorderglemm, which according to my piste map, dated about 3 years ago, shows nothingh there.

Glemmtalerhof, centre of village, very nice hotel, recommended as are Hotel Wolf and Sonnblick.
Any of these are perfect for the lifts, fun park and the Goat Bar, you won't go wrong.

my reccommendation would be for the Hotel Hinterglemm in Hinterglemm. We had a lovely week there last new years.

What ever you do get in quick as that week is SIGB ski test week so not a lot of accomodation left. I'm there that week also but am staying in Zell but I'm driving to triping around is not a problem.

You'll get to see more forums and be part of the best ski club on the net.

I wouldn't have thought so as it's not national holidays. The SIGB ski test is where the UK retailers get to test the 09 skis (same gear I'm bringing to the EoSB) so they'll be booking up accomodation.
