Hotel Tirol

A small hotel with really friendly service. We were made to feel very welcome, all the staff spoke excellent English. We particularly enjoyed the food, which was much better than anticipated. We have travelled quite extensively over the years and my husband and I felt that the quality of meals we had there were some of the best we have ever had! The breakfast had hot food, which was unusual for a European hotel and an excellent selection of breads and jams etc. Dinner was five courses, with a soup, starter, buffet salad, choice of main meal and dessert. All the food was beautifully presented and the soups were quite delicious.

The location was reasonable and as good as any other in the village. The bus stop was just a couple of minutes away and one could get to the slopes within 30-45 minutes (changing bus at the bus station). If you timed it right, you could get a direct bus right up to the ski slope. We particularly enjoyed coming back after our tiring ski to relax in the open-air pool. It was quite an amazing feeling to be out in the open surrounded by beautiful mountains and watch the snow come down on our heads – this is something we have not experienced before and the kids in particular really enjoyed it. The Jacuzzi within the indoor part of that pool helped to ease our aching joints. The spa and sauna area were relatively new and beautifully maintained, there was a lovely room where one can sleep wrapped up in soft woolly blankets. Again, the facilities were of a much higher standard than we had expected. We had anticipated going to the Alpen Therme in the town centre, however did not need to do this as we had everything we needed at the hotel.

Although the rooms were small and basically furnished, the hospitality, food and facilities more than made up for this. We would definitely recommend the hotel.

All booked and recommended by Mike at Born2Ski who helped with the whole boong process.
