 Poster: A snowHead
|
Afternoon all
After skiing France for the last 15 years i'm looking for a last minute Austrian adventure for my family (3,8,9 and wife) from March 24th and have heard that the Arlberg region is a safe bet.
Please can somebody with knowledge and experience guide my choices - ive sorted the flights to Innsbruck and have heard that there is a fast train directly linked through.
We are looking for a good solid 3 star hotel or bed and breakfast, any recommendations appreciated.
Yours in snow,
Skiaskidoo

Either base yourself in Nasserein end of town - where the nursery slopes are OR base yourself in Stuben - good ski school, quiet slopes and cheaper accomodation than equivelant properties in St Anton. The Hotel Post should tick your boxes in Stuben. Please be aware though that Stuben is very quiet, but this may suit you??? The Hotel Post was busy at nights when we were there (although we stayed in the Hotel Hubertushof) http://www.hotelpost.com/stuben-arlberg/Article/ID/110/Session/1-dXUVK3Hf-1-IP/Holidays_at_Arlberg.htm There's also a few gasthofs and b&b's you could choose from too http://stuben.com/Home.3.0.html?&L=1 You would get the train to Langen from Innsbruck - next stop after St Anton

skiaskidoo, forgot to add that if money not really a concern then base yourself in Oberlech - without a doubt it's the best base for a family of your agegroup.

I think you said in the other (snow reports) thread that you are beginners (also the age of your kids makes this obvious). I agree with DB that St Anton is not a good place for beginners. Lech offers much easier terrain but is expensive. If you want to try some other resort around Innsbruck then I nominate Seefeld (I learnt to ski there about 40 years ago). There is a thread here about a week ago where someone asked about Seefeld and got quite a few replies.

Kappl is a better base for a family holiday than say stuben or st Anton. Great nursery mid mountain for your youngest. Highly recommend it
