Our opinion
The Alpine Resort is a great base for getting on the mountain first thing with the main lift station practically outside the front door. It is around a 20 minute walk downhill to the centre of Zell am See or hop on the free the ski bus if you want to explore the resort centre.
We are pleased to offer flexible breaks at this Hotel for much of the Winter season.
