We booked the Pia because our BMF group were staying in the same building and we missed out on getting a place on their booking...

A really good week overall. We had no real expectations before we got there but it’s quite big in terms of the number of people staying there (there are more than 40 bedrooms) and I’d describe it as more of a budget hotel (like a Formula 1 in France or a Travelodge). Although I’d give it a 3/5 because it’s ... + more

The chalet was perfect for what we needed, it was good value for money and had a central position, near the bars and about a 10 minute walk from the lift - if that (though it depends which lift you want to go to). We liked the food, my boyfriend has a nut allergy and they catered to that very well. Our room was... + more

The staff were fantastic. Our room was smaller than we expected (room 12) – we booked a double but I almost wish we had got a twin because we noticed that these were larger. The rooms were basic but the chalet’s interior was generally nice. The biggest issue was the drying room which leaked badly. The water w... + more

Our holiday here was good – we went in the middle of April and there was a lot of snow, not that bad considering it was near the end of the season! The guys in the chalet were alright, they served different food every day – it was sociable eating together with other people in the chalet. Our room was fine and... + more

Wondrously close to the town centre, at less than 300yards, you’ve got easy access to the highly entertaining nightlife afforded to you from this popular resort. Even better, in the morning you’ll have all the piste to choose from, with nursery runs, smaller chairlifts and gondolas heading across the piste al... + more

Location: where is Chalet Pia

St Anton. Chalet Pia is in a first-rate position for both the skiing and the nightlife of St Anton. Just 250 metre (approx.) walk from St Anton’s pedestrian zone with its lively bars and restaurants. The Nassereinbahn Gondola and nursery slopes are 500m (approx.) and the Gampen and Galzig lifts are just 650m away offering a choice for all levels of skier.

Overview: chalet description: Chalet Pia description

Chalet Pia is a modern chalet which does not disappoint. Furnished in light beech with an attractive décor, the chalet has a bright, welcoming atmosphere throughout. Thanks to recent refurbishments, Chalet Pia now offers the added comfort of having all en suite bedrooms. Chalet Pia also boasts a sauna to ease tired limbs after a hard day on the slopes.  Although the communal areas are on the small side with limited lounge space, the chalet’s proximity to the fabulous nightlife of St Anton more than makes up for this.

Due to local regulations, we are no longer able to offer social skiing by our staff in St Anton. We are able however to offer one day's social skiing in Sonnenkopf (for a small transport fee, subject to demand and weather conditions).

Brimming with traditional Austrian charm but with all the conveniences of a modern resort, St Anton's vast, high altitude ski area and vibrant atmosphere make it truly world class. It's one of the major international destinations that everyone must visit at least once (and is likely to return to frequently thereafter). Two minutes from the train station and less than an hour's drive from Innsbruck airport, it's a conveniently accessible resort. The main village is traffic free and stretches for about 1km - dot...
It's often said that if you learn to ski or snowboard here, you're likely to find any other resort an utter breeze... Just don't do a Bridget Jones (her memorable descent in 'Edge of Reason' took place on one of the more challenging Arlberg runs) and make sure to take advantage of the excellent tuition on offer. Thanks to local legend Hannes Schneider, St Anton opened the first ski school in 1921. The Skischule Arlberg continues to provide excellent tuition today, so beginners are in good hands. There's a nurs...
The après ski here is absolutely legendary: the atmosphere is constantly buzzing and with a night bus running until 3am, you can really make the most of your evening. You'll find about 20 bars offering a variety of scenes, but to experience après ski at its best you can't leave until you've joined the masses and danced on the tables at world-famous Mooserwirt or The Crazy Kangaroo (Krazy Kanguruh). While it's reputation is lively (and the resort lives up to it) there are lots of options if you prefer a more so...

"Good value chalet"

Edward Quinn, London
4/ out of 5
We booked the Pia because our BMF group were staying in the same building and we missed out on getting a place on their booking... We hadn’t realised that the building was actually 2 separate hotels covered by different operators. Everyone else was in the bit that covered the 3 floors above (which looked really nice) and we were in the basement which you access round the back and is a completely separate entity. Although you’re in the basement, you do have windows and natural light on one side so you're not completely underground. The part we stayed in sleeps 8 and it was ‘cosy’. For a group of 8 who all knew each other it would have been great, but we found ourselves a bit on top of each other with people we didn’t know. The dining room is really small and some of the bedroom doors open literally into the dining room table, to the point that you have to make sure the bedroom door is closed if you want to push your chair back – it was quite unpleasant having to eat so close to other people’s rooms. The good thing is that you have your own cook for just the 8 of you, the food was pretty good and if you wanted something special they would probably put it together for you. It’s at the budget end of budget holidays - not a luxury chalet by any means - but you do have a sauna. It’s probably priced accordingly as price-wise a week here is fairly cheap (we definitely managed to beat the price of our friends in the upstairs part). The location is very central and you could quite happily walk to the lift in ski boots. The rooms themselves were dorm-like but ok (I’ve stayed in much smaller rooms before) and the bathrooms were pretty modern and clean.

"Family stay in Chalet Pia"

A really good week overall. We had no real expectations before we got there but it’s quite big in terms of the number of people staying there (there are more than 40 bedrooms) and I’d describe it as more of a budget hotel (like a Formula 1 in France or a Travelodge). Although I’d give it a 3/5 because it’s basic and without many home comforts, it was totally fine for what we needed. I thought the location was good – the chalet is half way between the main lift and the Nassereinbahn ski lift so it was just a five minute walk or so. The chalet didn’t have much by way of ski storage but for a small fee we could leave our equipment at the ski hire shop which worked well for us. We’re a family and unfortunately the neighbouring rooms we ended up with weren’t interconnecting which meant we had a few logistical shenanigans with the kids. The staff were very helpful - they did an earlier dinner for the kids staying there and were pretty flexible, we gave them very positive feedback. We pre-booked our lift passes and they made sure we had them as soon as we arrived. There is a sauna but on the whole the chalet doesn’t really have any facilities in terms of things to do with the kids after the evening meal. The WiFi was a bit sketchy as there was only one router, but that wasn’t a big problem.

You get what you pay for! Cheapest central St Anton chalet, Very tired & basic. Refurb' planned summer 2015, so this winter at its' most worn out. Can't normally get a catered chalet in Austria's top resort so cheaply, so book knowing you're getting an awesome holiday, not awesome accommodation. The suits me perfectly, but I noticed some people complained about standards, conveniently forgetting the incredibly cheap price.

The chalet was perfect for what we needed, it was good value for money and had a central position, near the bars and about a 10 minute walk from the lift - if that (though it depends which lift you want to go to). We liked the food, my boyfriend has a nut allergy and they catered to that very well. Our room was absolutely fine, not luxurious but all we needed.

"Fantastic staff and food, room a bit on the small side"

Caroline Jacobs, Melbourne

The staff were fantastic. Our room was smaller than we expected (room 12) – we booked a double but I almost wish we had got a twin because we noticed that these were larger. The rooms were basic but the chalet’s interior was generally nice. The biggest issue was the drying room which leaked badly. The water was coming into the hallway. The staff tried their hardest to keep it under control but it was constant so you can imagine, it was impossible for them. I thought it was quite a safety hazard. The food was really good. It was varied and very good quality, and they catered well for my daughter who is a veggie. The location is fantastic, close to the lift which is what we wanted. We had a great holiday and we can’t wait to go back to St. Anton.

"5 star quality, 3 star standard"

Our holiday here was good – we went in the middle of April and there was a lot of snow, not that bad considering it was near the end of the season! The guys in the chalet were alright, they served different food every day – it was sociable eating together with other people in the chalet. Our room was fine and clean. The chalet has a good position close to the centre and near the lifts. We went as a couple and enjoyed it – I’d say the chalet would also be good for a group of a few people. From my experience here I’d say it had 5 star quality and 3 star standard. This was my first time in St Anton and I will be going again!

Wondrously close to the town centre, at less than 300yards, you’ve got easy access to the highly entertaining nightlife afforded to you from this popular resort. Even better, in the morning you’ll have all the piste to choose from, with nursery runs, smaller chairlifts and gondolas heading across the piste all within your grasp, and less than a 10minute walk from all. With this wide choice of activities on your doorstep, you’ll be worn out, making the inclusion of a sauna a wonderful perk, but let us check it’s available for your dates "before you book", in case this is a key part of the holiday for you.
