About Hotel Kristiana

There’s a reason Hotel Kristiana is one of our Inghams Choice hotels, recognised for its consistently positive guest feedback. A fantastic family-run hotel with plenty of character, it’s perfectly situated for exploring the Skicircus region.

Just 200 metres from the Bernkogel and Kohlmais lifts and a three-minute walk from Saalbach centre, you’ll have easy access to the slopes, as well as the resort’s lively après-ski scene, bars, shops and restaurants. With 270km of interconnected slopes across the Skicircus Saalbach Hinterglemm Leogang Fieberbrunn ski area, there’s plenty to explore on the mountain.

There’s plenty to make your stay special away from the slopes, too. The hotel’s owner is a talented chef and artist, with their creative touch reflected throughout the décor and personal service. You can even try your hand at watercolour painting in the hotel’s own art studio, with classes bookable locally. Food is another highlight, with regional cuisine, weekly themed dinners and gala evenings, complemented by a well-stocked wine cellar and recommendations from a certified sommelier.

After a day on the slopes, head to the hotel’s spa to unwind in the Finnish sauna, aromatic steam bath or infrared cabin, or put your feet up in the relaxation area with its waterbeds. With its distinctive artistic touches, regional cuisine and welcoming hospitality, Hotel Kristiana offers something a little different from your typical ski hotel.

Discover Saalbach

Skicircus Saalbach Hinterglemm Leogang Fieberbrunn provides one of Europe’s most exciting ski circuses. The attractive villages may be only four kilometres apart (Saalbach is the larger resort of the two with a charming centre with stylish shops and cafés) but they form a vast Skicircus in the picturesque Glemm valley.

As for the skiing – it’s really excellent. With 270km of pistes and 70 lifts this valley is an intermediates' dream. But there’s plenty of excellent off-piste available too. And don’t miss the long, flowing run down to neighbouring Leogang – often overlooked by visiting skiers. It’s a wonderful long north-facing run all the way down to Leogang. With perhaps a quick pit stop at the rustic Kraller Alm chalet.

Things to do in Saalbach

Experience the magic of winter on a horse-drawn sleigh ride through the snowy Saalbach-Hinterglemm valley. Enjoy a scenic afternoon ride to the idyllic Lindlingalm, and enjoy the peaceful forests and snowy meadows or listen to the jingle of the horses bells on a magical sleigh ride under the stars on a night time sleigh ride. Reservations are required, book and pay locally.

Glide around the ice at the Saalbach Hinterglemm Sports Centre, or try the popular alpine sport of curling. It’s a perfect après-ski activity for families, couples, or groups of friends. Equipment is available for hire on-site, and curling lanes can be reserved locally.

Swap your skis or snowboard for a pair of snowshoes and discover the quieter side of the mountains. Wander through frosty forests, across snow-covered pastures, and take in breath taking alpine panoramas on a peaceful snowshoe hike. Guided tours are available weekly and can be booked locally through the tourist office.

Ready, set, go! Whether you're racing your friends or enjoying a fun, gentle ride with the kids, tobogganing in Saalbach is a great after ski activity.  For an extra thrill, try night tobogganing on one of the illuminated runs.

Head to Bobby’s Pub Kegelbahn for a bit of evening entertainment and challenge your friends and family to a game of bowling, billiards or darts.
