“Nestled at the foot of the gondola in Obergurgl, this place strikes a fine balance between Tyrolean charm and modern luxury. I particularly appreciate the sizable spa-the saunas and outdoor jacuzzi are a welcome sight after a day on the slopes. The hotel's direct access to the Festkoglbahn ski lift and refined dining certainly make it a compelling choice.”
