Overview: hotel description: Sport Kristall description

NB: while the Supplier rating is 4.5 Star, the Official rating is 4 Star.

The Sport Kristall is a pretty tasty option for a ski holiday in Kaprun. Family Vötter and the team have worked really hard to make this place something special - and they've even managed to squeeze in a classic car museum.

Location-wise it's very peaceful, but still close to the centre of town - and with the ski bus stopping right outside the hotel, you've got easy access to the Kitzsteinhorn glacier and over to the Schmittenhöhe ski area.

The Sport Kristall's rooms are extremely comfortable - they're traditionally furnished, in-keeping with its country-house origins, and the large picture windows keep them bright and cheery while providing you with some superb views of the area.

If you fancy a bit of that pampering after a day on the slopes, head on down to the Kristall Spa. This modern wellness centre has plenty of highlights including an outdoor whirlpool, indoor pools, a selection of saunas and lots of space for just relaxing. There are also dedicated treatment and massage rooms and a mini-gym.

Please note:

There is no lift access to the Maiskogel family rooms in the front wing.

Smoking is allowed in the bar after 7pm.

Austrian twin beds
Austrian twin beds are very common in Central Europe. They’re simply one large bed frame containing two single mattresses, both with separate duvets and linen sets, that cannot be separated. Separate twin beds are less common and can often be head to head beds, rather than side by side, if they are available. Beds are separable on request (not double).

We update Sport Kristall's details often, but facilities do change. e.g. some extras listed by the supplier as "free" or included might only be for the first time you use them, or for one time per party, then charged for further use. If any specific feature is essential to your holiday, make sure you ask us to confirm the details of it before you book your holiday.

Located in Salzburg, Kaprun is perhaps best known for being the home of the magnificent Kitzsteinhorn glacier and was the first Austrian resort to partake in glacier skiing way back in the 60’s. As with many other Austrian resorts, organic growth over time has meant much of the town’s architecture still presents a quaint throwback to days gone by - those wishing for the fairy-tale holiday setting may very well find their wishes come true in the shadow of the regal 12th century Castle, or amongst the delight...
Kaprun’s pistes are split fairly evenly in terms of ability level, with the majority being classed as suitable for intermediate skiers. Don’t let this scare you off or lull you into a false sense of security though, as newbies and adrenaline junkies are fantastically catered for too. Of particular appeal to families and those with limited experience is Maiskogel- known as ‘The Family Mountain’. Accessible by the Maiskogelbahn gondola, the area is accessed separately from the larger Kitzsteinhorn area of t...
Despite the relatively modest size of the resort, there are still almost 50 different bars and restaurants to choose between. The evening’s festivities can kick off before you’ve even left the slopes; the Häuslalm’s famous terrace bar is the perfect location to start your après and indulge in some traditional Austrian fare whilst looking down onto the village below. Nestled right at the base of the slopes, Zur Lederhos´n is the first stop for many fresh off the lifts. Boasting a heated terrace with live...
