Austria’s a winter wonderland of medieval market towns and mystical mountain villages, surrounded by the most sensational peaks. And this alpine nation's an old hand at luxury skiing.
Schuss gorgeous groomers and other-worldly off piste, guzzle Glühwein then hole up in high-end hotels and top-notch chalets where spa facilities pamper you piste-ready for the next day.
Austria's four and five-star hotels take centre stage when it comes to luxury skiing – grand Tyrolean buildings housing all you could dream of to make a week in the mountains incredible.
Find swimming pools on rooftops, in spa centres or extending into the great outdoors, plus saunas, hammams, grottos and massage therapists to see you pampered top to toe.
On-site casinos, cigar lounges and night clubs can be found in some of the poshest properties, while restaurants have Gault&Millau and Michelin praise for their gastronomic greatness.

Hotels may well hog the limelight in Austria's luxury ski scene, but that's not to say there aren't some corkers when it comes to chalets. Within classic choc box walls, find private swimming pools and spa facilities to fill your time with off the slopes – some throw in home cinemas and games rooms too. Take a look at our luxury Austrian ski chalets here.
Sometimes the greatest luxury of all is the flexibility to let your stay pan out as you please. Whether you plan to gobble up Gröstl in your PJs at home or out in a local restaurant, our Austrian apartments make you the master of your mealtimes.
Austria's more luxurious lodgings have well kitted out kitchens where you can conjure up culinary delights, as well as central locations for access to local restaurants. Have a gander here.
