It has a fantastic peaceful location - slightly elevated above the centre of Obergurgl, but with a ski run right across the road. Food is high quality, with a great use of local ingredients and service to match. Expect a great mix of Tirolean and international cuisine. The Austria is the interconnected sister hotel to the Bellevue where guests can spend time in the beautiful spa area.
Description
Location
Take an 8-minute stroll to the Rosskarbahn chairlift or Hohe Mut Bahn gondola each morning, to get access to miles of red and blue runs. Or head 10 minutes in the opposite direction to the Festkoglbahn gondola, which is closer to the Hochgurgl side of the ski area. You can cruise back to within a couple of minutes of the hotel on Blue 6, or take Red 12 to the bottom of the Festkoglbahn and walk home from there. Good for exploring, the hotel is within a short walk of shops and restaurants.
