 Poster: A snowHead

Any hostels in St Anton?
Looking to do a ski course but only need some cheap dorm room type accommodation...
Alternatively, if they're not near the slopes, anywhere for about EUR30-50 per night?
I guess I could drive into resort if I have my car but would ideally like to be close by plus hostels are good for socialising

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Thanks.
Hmm, they seem to be at 7km out from the centre.
Any cheap accommodation that people have used near the lifts? or chalet...

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

There are fairly regular shuttle buses from the outlying villages (Nasserein, St Jacob etc). Not sure what time they run till, though.

Not entirely familiar with all the ski areas in St Anton. When you say Nasserein has a gondola - does that connect to the rest of St Anton then?

GordonFreeman, if you are considering St Anton as a place to do a ski course. I would suggest you have a good read of the tourist office website first.

GordonFreeman, Nasserein is just outside the centre and is a very good place to base yourself. The gondola takes you right up to where all the action is so you are well connected into the circut. If you are wanting to catch the apres ski at the Mooserwirt etc it would involve a 5-10 min walk down the main st. I've stayed in Nasserein a couple of time and it's never been a problem, although we were the village centre side of the gondola - Nasserein is a reasonably big part of St Anton and if you're staying towards the St Jakob part of it, it could mean a 20 minute walk - or free bus or taxi BUT only if you're hitting the town for some apres - which I would highly recommend - would be the equivelant of a blind guy going to s strip bar otherwise  . If you can, try to stay on Dorfstrasse as this is the main street and convenient for everything. This is a good interactive map of the village which helps you choose a room based on rating and location etc http://geo.planalp.at/stanton/map/stanton_map.php

Ok, will have a look through that.
Also, are there any recommended chalets in that area or might they be too pricey?
