The Austria Gourmet & Wine Hotel more than lives up to its name. The hotel has a strong focus on gourmet dining and the wine cellar offerings are second to none. Owned and run by the friendly Steiner family, the impeccable service and incredible facilities keep guests coming back year after year.

Doorstep skiing

Located just steps away from Blue run number 6, the Austria Gourmet & Wine Hotel has an unbeatable location. You are an eight minute walk downhill to the main Rosskarbahn gondola and Hohe Mut 1 gondola. 

Linked by underground corridor to the sister hotel Hotel Bellevue, both hotels are have ideal locations to explore the Diamond of the Alps and share some of the same facilities.

World class dining

The hotel's highly trained chefs are constantly on the lookout for new gourmet trends and specialties from all over the world. You can look forward to an extensive breakfast buffet and a five course gourmet dinner. Plates are beautifully presented with perfectly balanced flavours that showcase the best of Austrian dining.

On site wine tasting

Every Tuesday the hotel hosts the Best of Austria Wine Tasting, a celebration of the country's finest vintages. This prebookable experience is hosted by your experienced sommelier Maximillian, son of the hotel owner and winner of Austria's wine sommelier of the year 2023. The tasting features eight wines from the Tyrol region, typically four red and four white wines to try. The tasting also includes AMAX, Maximillian’s own wine which he created with his sister Anna. Book this experience in advance with Inghams, approx. £82 per person.

Free child supervision

You can hit the slopes knowing the kids are in safe hands. Child supervision is available Sunday to Friday 9:30am - 4:30pm and 7-8:30pm (from 3 years). The hotel's new children's play area is a great retreat for kids and the ice skating rink opposite the hotel is fun for all the family.

Panoramic outdoor pool

Unwind in the hotel's large spa area and enjoy views from the heated outdoor pool with panoramic views. The spa also features an indoor pool, multiple saunas and steam rooms, relaxation room with waterbeds and fitness room.

Bedrooms are large and many of the balconies offer incredible views over Obergurgl. After a day of carving through powder, enjoy sipping hot chocolate by the crackling fire in the hotel lounge.

Skiing and snowboarding in Obergurgl 

If you’re looking for guaranteed snow, queue-free modern lifts and immaculate slope grooming then Obergurgl is the place for you. Known as the ‘diamond of the alps’, the majority of our hotels are 4 star and above. As a family resort, many of the hotels offer kids activities and are close to the ski school and lifts.

You’ll have quiet scenic pistes suited to all levels of skiing. There is a great ski school, learning area and child friendly snow park. At a height of 1,927 metres the views in Obergurgl are spectacular.

Where to stay in Obergurgl

We have excellent long standing relationships with all of our hotels in Obergurgl so you can rest assured that you will be taken great care of during your stay. The level of service and facilities here are some of the best in Austria, and many hotels have ski-in, ski-out locations.

The best views of the resort can be enjoyed from the Top Mountain Star 360° bar or the Hohe Mut Alm – where you’ll find the spot known as Tirol’s most beautiful mountain ridge. We recommend a winter hike around the stone pine forest – which became a UNESCO natural treasure in 1963. There is a weekly ski-show, night skiing and tobogganing or why not holiday in style with a helicopter ride or champagne gondola lunch.

Bars and restaurants in Obergurgl

With a community of 400 locals working in the traditional pubs, parasol covered bars and rustic mountain huts –expect lederhosen’s, large beer steins and service with a smile. Obergurgl is a small resort meaning you’re never too far from friends or family on the slopes.

No trip to Obergurgl would be complete without a trip to the famous après Nederhütte, located half way up the mountain. Be sure to try the sticky ribs, they’re a specialty that shouldn’t be missed. Once you’ve had a bite to eat. It’s time to party – the house band and staff will be the first to demand you get up on the benches for a good old knees up.
