Alphotel Tyrol

This has to be one of the most beautiful places to visit. The scenery is simply stunning. It’s so peaceful and tranquil. I found the hotel on Secret Escapes and what a find it was! A fabulous family run hotel up in the mountains. We definitely want to return. The hotel is faultless. Every member of staff is kind, friendly and helpful. They can not do enough for you. Our room had a beautiful view overlooking the forests and mountains. Food and drinks were all inclusive and such there was always such a great choice. Every morning at breakfast, a daily newsletter is placed on your table with recommended activities. A lovely touch. The spa is superb. Several heated pools (indoor and out) jacuzzis, sun bed, saunas etc. You can opt to have special treatments. The hotel gave us a pass which meant all buses were free and we received certain discounts. Although we didn’t have young children with us, the hotel is brilliant for little ones with lots of planned activities, animals, play areas etc. There are lots of beautiful walks nearby and villages to visit. Highlights of our short stay were a walk along the Gilfenklamm Gorge (a 20 minute walk from the hotel) and a visit to Monte Cavallo by cable car with various hikes. We climbed to the top! I highly recommended Alphotel Tyrol and can not praise it highly enough. Thank you to the Eisendle family and Team Tyrol for making us feel so welcome.

My favourite ski holiday destination. Staff are so kind, efficient and simply lovely. Food is outstanding. The spa and wellness facilities are wonderful and so good for the soul. My kids want to return every year too. Thank you Alphotel Tyrol!

We enjoyed every second of our time at Alphotel Tyrol and I’m still incredulous when I look back at photos. I can’t believe we were really in such a beautiful place, and that we enjoyed such unbelievable hospitality and care, with so much attention to detail. We loved the daily variety of wholesome outdoor activities for our son to enjoy, and the family hikes we enjoyed so much with Andreas. We were all but knocked flat by the spa, which is immaculate and incredibly peaceful, as well as state-of-the-art. We loved the complementary experiences like a sugar scrub with local rosemary and blood orange, and the saunas with special scents like the forest, or fresh lemon. The fact that the childcare was available for free as part of our stay (including a massive indoor soft play!) meant that we had daily opportunities for time together in the spa, pools or- my personal favourite!- the outdoor infinity jacuzzi. Family holidays are never like this! The whole hotel is dotted with comfortable places to sit and take in the breathtaking surroundings. Somehow, the landscaping also creates a visual break from the many outdoor kids activities, such as the shaded sandpit and the amazing slide, so that from our balcony all we saw was Tyrol- nothing plastic or garish whatsoever. We enjoyed 5 course meals and buffets including octopus and prawns and smoked salmon. I had Parma ham and melon often- and homemade ice cream every single day- usually twice! This was all part of our stay, and the freshness and quality of every meal was exceptional. Every morning, we were greeted at our table (which had a view of ponies in the fields beyond the stream and wildflowers) and presented with a daily Morgenpost newsletter. The hotel mainly welcomes German and Italian-speaking guests, but we had a version in English, full of ideas for local things to do, local legends, jokes, a reminder of what was on for the kids and the last available spa slots. It was brilliant and we read the whole thing every day! A huge highlight for me was taking an ebike for a spin, up and down enormous, steep mountainsides without my thighs complaining! The hotel lends them to guests for only 30 Euros for an entire day- which I would have paid per minute, had I known how much fun it would be! Utterly liberating, pure exhilaration! I loved the details. The welcome drinks, and the drinks and nibbles evening hosted by the family that owns the hotel. The spa bags, big enough for your towels and a good book, and which even came in mini size for kids! The hotel backpacks, the top-of-the-range ebikes (to rent) and prams and mountain bikes to borrow (for free). The cinema and bowling alley in the basement for the children..! If it sounds ridiculous, it’s because it really was the most extraordinary place. It felt like it had been designed and developed at every step with love and attention to detail, and always with our comfort and wellbeing in mind. I honestly don’t know how they have created such a luxurio

A fantastic hotel because of many reasons: family atmosphere, very friendly staff, beautiful outside area with a really nice playground for the kids, big terrace, beautiful pool & jacuzzi, great wellness, cozy rooms and delicious food.

This is a wonderful place if you have children as there are so many well thought out things for young children to do both with the staff and also hikes, parties, pony rides which can be enjoyed with the parents. During the day children can be amused with special movies, and age appropriate activities while the grown ups can take advantage of the many spa offerings or just sit around the pool and relax. We were two older adults who wanted to just relax for a few days and were able to do just that.

The wooden chalet is cosy but full of light and space, provided also by the surrounding wooden terrace. The stylish and comfortable interiors of the chalet, built with natural and local materials, provide a sense of "your home in the mountain", with a fully equipped kitchen and wine fridge. The open fireplace lights the magic of the spaces and warms your inner soul while the views of the trees allows you to breath in the pure air of the surrounding mountains. To have the morning Südtirol breakfast delicacies set on your kitchen table while you sleep, ready to be enjoyed at your own wake-up time, is the wisest choice to start your day of rest and relaxation in this beautiful area. Last but not least , the outside hot-tub and the private sauna add those touches of rejuvenation and relax to the mountain experience. I will be definitively coming back.
