The Best Hotels in Großarl

Every room faces the mountain, and the windows run floor to ceiling so nothing gets in the way. Das Edelweiss is a ski-in, ski-out alpine resort in the Großarl valley, the kind where après-ski feels like a second career, the infinity pool frames a snowcap sunset, and the interiors lean hard on warm natural wood. The Michelin Guide awarded it 2 Keys.

Sixteen Icelandic horses live on the grounds, which tells you a lot about what kind of resort this is. Set in Austria's Großarl valley, Moar Gut is an all-inclusive mountain retreat built around the logic that children and adults should both be comprehensively worn out by bedtime. Trampolines, a petting zoo, alpine treks, multiple pools, a full spa, and, somehow, a baby spa. Rooms run to natural wood and stone with balconies for the view. The Michelin Guide awarded it 2 Keys.

The heated infinity pool hangs over the Grossarl valley like a dare, and it sets the tone for this alpine spa hotel. An indoor pool connects to an outdoor one, a natural swimming pond sits alongside the saunas and steam baths, and there's an open-air garden bar for post-spa drinks. Rooms come with native wood and mountain balconies; suites add fireplaces and hot tubs. Yoga and guided hikes are included, and a ski lift is right across the road.
