Overview

Set in a peaceful spot on the edge of Aurach bei Kitzbühel, Hotel Aurach is the kind of cosy, family-run stay that instantly feels welcoming. The inviting lounge, complete with an open fireplace, is perfect for unwinding after dinner, while the simple yet comfortable rooms feature traditional alpine touches like carved pine headboards that add plenty of Tyrolean character. There’s even a sauna to soothe tired ski legs after a full day on the mountain.

The hotel’s quiet location makes it ideal if you prefer a more relaxed atmosphere, though the lively resort of Kitzbühel is only 3km away and easy to reach by ski bus or taxi. Each morning begins with a hearty breakfast spread before heading out to the slopes, and returning in the evening feels like stepping into a calmer, slower pace.

Dinner is served in the bright dining room and includes a relaxed three-course menu, with your choice of main selected in advance. Expect satisfying regional favourites such as crispy Wiener Schnitzel or rich, comforting Käsespätzle which is exactly the kind of food you want after a long ski day.

All in all, if you’re looking for warm hospitality, good value and an authentic alpine atmosphere, this charming three-star hotel is an excellent choice.

Top tip: During busier periods, take the ski bus towards Jochberg and use the Wagstatt gondola as it’s often a quicker way onto the mountain, and the slopes there are usually much quieter.

About Kitzbühel

Every keen skier has heard of Kitzbuhel and its famous Hahnenkamm downhill run. It has its own 158km of runs, but nearly 700km if you include all the associated 'Kitzbuheler Alpen' resorts. The resort also offers a huge range of attractions - lots of cross-country, reasonable boarder facilities (but lots of draglifts), great intermediate and expert skiing, plenty of off-piste including challenging moguls for better skiers, a wide variety of terrain and slopes, great nightlife, accommodation for all budgets, excellent restaurants on and off the snow, short transfers and attractive buildings.

The wide open nursery slopes at the bottom of the Hahnenkamm gondola provide the perfect introduction to skiing. Intermediates are well catered for with an efficient lift system and free ski bus service enabling them to experience the wooded runs of the Ehrenbachhöhe and exhilarating descents of the Kitzbüheler Horn and the Bärenbachkogel at Jochbergto name but a few. Whereas, advanced skiers will want to tst their skills on the 'Hahnenkamm Streif', thought to be one of the most testing of all the international racing pistes.

Overall, it's worth checking the location of your accommodation as some can be away from the lifts but Kitzbuhel offers plenty of magic with plenty to keep you occupied both on and off the slopes.
