 Poster: A snowHead
|
Does anyone have any tips for a hotel/apt or chalet that will acomadate a group of 10 for a Sun - Thurs short break next March in Ischgl
I managed to find a couple of options for St Anton earlier this year but Ischgl is proving a harder nut to crack especially this far out.
Any  gems out there?

Yes, but I can't remember the name atm. 4 star, right by the lifts, stayed there with my family a few years ago, I'll try and get the name from my 'rents later.

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

hedley, I'm guessing Ischgl same as St Anton, ie reluctant to do anything other than 7 days Sat to Sat? We stayed in Kappl this year and have booked again for next year. Had no problems booking well in advance or looking at alternative dates, albeit that we ended up Sat to Sat. Probably not ideal if you want to be in the mix but would be good if wanting a good value base, and were not concerned about the apres

A group of us stayed in the 4* Garni Hotel Nevada.It was great value and top class food.Also it is right beside 2 of the 3 Gondolas.We were talking to the owner one night and he told us that Ischgl runs at over 80% capacity for the whole season so that is why they mostly only take week long bookings.Its a great resort with mighty apres ski.

I've spent a good few hours trying to find any type of accomadation that will book 4 nights but no joy.
I may be better trying to find a reasonable price on a weeks stay in apts and only using 4nights.
I have done this before in Verbier and when split between the whole group it can sometimes work out not too expensive.
Flights to Innsbruck are reasonable at the moment but most hoteliers/owners have no prices in place for next season yet?
Frustrating as we need to get something organised ASAP.

I have just come back from my 4th trip to Ishcgl ( end of season party with Alicia Keys ) and there are a lot of apartments that will accomodate you, but you will have to book early. They usually start taking bookings from july, there are lots of apartments that sleep 6, last year we booked 2 apartments in the same hotel. The more central the better, look on the the Ischgl website and you can book from there, or we always book direct. Ischgl is an awesome place for skiing and apres ski, its not cheap but we havent been anywhere else for the last 4 years, and we go 3 times a year.

hedley, you could try the Fliana - not sure if it's the one clarky is on about, but it's 4* and just by the lifts - but I really think you will struggle for a group of 10 in peak season, nay, I say it's a darn impossibility. Booking an aprtment for the full week and using it only for the days you are there may well be the cheapest or only option available. Do report back if you find somewhere

Surely that means it should be your 12th trip (at least), or did you mean to say in the first quote "my 4th trip to Ishcgl THIS YEAR".
sounds really awesome if you go that often.

sorry, meant to say 4th year to Ischgl, so yes you are correct , we go 3 times a year, 1st week in March then first weekend in May ( end of season party ) then the second week in December.
IT IS REALLY THAT GOOD however, the guys mentioned that we should try SOLDEN anyone been?

I had this problem a few years ago when I wanted to visit Ischgl for 4 days - we ended up staying in Samnaun (on the Swiss side of the Silvretta ski area) in the Hotel Post, which was excellent. If all you want is the skiing and a good hotel, that's fine, although clearly Samnaun lacks the apres ski options that you'll get in Ischgl itself. Its one advantage (depending on your point of view) is all its duty free shops, so there is no shortage of retail therapy opportunities, assuming your credit card can stand it on top of the costs of a skiing holiday.
