Nestled between the majestic peaks of the largest ski area in the Bregenz Forest, the family-run 4* Superior Panoramahotel Alpenstern is located in the region with the most snow in the world – the ideal prerequisite for a successful getaway this winter! Right outside the hotel door, alpine sports enthusiasts can expect what is probably the most beautiful version of a winter vacation: top-class ski-in and ski-out. Those who prefer to use the snow-covered landscape to recharge their batteries do so best on a romantic snowshoe hike or on a winter hike directly from the hotel.

Cozy comfort
The host families Bischof and Steinfeld make sure to welcome their guests in a heartfelt manner. Above all, Corina Steinfeld acts as the good soul of the house. The cozy modern interior of the rooms and suites of the 4*Superior-Hotel Alpenstern offers the ideal retreat after an eventful day. Soft beds, romantic lighting and generously designed bathrooms create the ideal conditions to feel right at home. The indescribable view of the mountains provides wow moments when you wake up.
Active days in the heart of the Bregenz Forest
The total of 30 mountain railroads masterfully connect the 109 kilometers of slopes of Damüls-Mellau-Faschina. Whatever your heart desires – be it adventurous freeriding or athletic freestyle – this ski area has something in store for everyone, even the youngest of skiers.

A well-deserved time out at the spa
After an active day on the slopes, the grounding atmosphere of the luxurious spa area provides a decelerating balance, all in the spirit of peace and security. With a lot of love and a trained eye for details, the hosts have created an adults-only refuge on the third floor of the house, where time seems to stand still. The highlight here: the Finnish panorama sauna with a view of the white expanses of the Voralrberg landscape.

On the first floor of the 4* Superior Panoramahotel, the doors of a separate textile sauna are also open to families. The hotel's extensive pool landscape is also located on the same floor. The heated infinity and indoor pool allows its guests to do their laps in front of a breathtaking panorama view and will make you feel like you're literally diving into the snowy summit landscape.
