Hotel Tyrolerhof, Solden, Austria

· in the resort centre · 2 minutes’ walk to the Giggijoch lift · 1 minute’s walk to the nursery slope · ski bus stop outside

If you want to be in the heart of the action, add the Hotel Tyrolerhof to your shortlist. It’s just a couple of minutes to the Giggijoch lift, so you’ll be up on the mountain in no time. And when you’re done, you’ve got the resort’s bars and clubs on your doorstep.

As for the hotel itself, it’s got that classic Austrian look with balconies and timber cladding. Step inside and things feel fresh and modern, from the pine-panelled restaurant to the bright and airy bedrooms. The minimalist décor and simple colour scheme give it a hint of Scandinavian chic, and plush fabrics add that luxurious touch. And if you’re looking for rustic alpine charm, the hotel’s Grizzly Bar will fit the bill, with its rough stone walls and exposed beams.

Speaking of the bar, it’s the perfect place for a chilled-out après – grab a drink and find a nook by the fireside for a cosy catch-up. Had a big day on the mountain? Head to the wellness area to refresh those ski legs in the sauna or enjoy a few leisurely laps in the pool. Once you’re feeling rejuvenated, it’s time to think about food. Buffets are just the thing to fill you up after a session on the slopes, and there are four varied courses each evening to tempt you. Refuel with platefuls of pasta or try a little bit of everything to get a true taste of the region, from steamed dumplings to cuts of cured meat.
