St. Anton am Arlberg, Austria

Just got back from a great holiday here.
We enjoyed it so much we booked it for next year while we were there!

Staying in Hotel Post (Four Star) we had access to 60+ lifts in the whole region with two of them being less than 50 yards from the hotels front door. When we would be finished our skiing and looking to go out for a few drinks you could simply walk into the basement of the hotel where there is two of the best niteclubs in the town!(Plus free for residents!)

Ski Rental was also under the building on the outside and with a 10% discount for residents of the Hotel Post who could argue!

This is definitely the best town and hotel I have been to and would seriously recommend it to anyone looking for amazing intermediate>pro skiing!

Great to hear that you enjoyed the holiday, how was the snow for you?

Sounds like a great trip Adam!

Im sure as a lot of you know Austria got a lot less snow than previous years! But we were lucky that we decided to go to such a high resort. When we arrived the mountain was basically green but they used what little snow and snow cannons to cover a few slopes.

When the snow came on New Years it was perfect!

I'm glad to hear that it turned out good. How many days did you ski?

6 days, much shorter than usual but probably one of the best ski trips I've ever been on!

Next year the same group of us hope to go for 10 days, plus I might try and get a second one in there somewhere

...so envious of people that have the option to ski throughout the whole season.
