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).
