Book hotels by the ski slopes in South Tyrol

The ski area above the city of Meran offers sunny slopes, modern lift facilities and inviting ski huts.

If you are fed up with getting up early only to get stuck in traffic on the way to the ski resort and then not being the first on the slopes after all, book a hotel right by the ski slopes. This way, you’ll save a lot of time and stress on your skiing holiday.

Right on the slopes or near the lift?

Not every ski hotel offers the same direct access to the ski resort. When making your choice, it’s therefore worth taking a closer look at the location and the services on offer:

  • Ski-in/ski-out: Straight from the hotel onto your skis – and back again on skis after a day’s skiing.
  • Hotel by the lift or at the valley station: Just a few steps to the cable car, but not necessarily situated directly on the ski slope.
  • Hotel with a ski shuttle: A little further from the ski resort, but a shuttle takes guests comfortably to the lift or the valley station.

In some hotels, all you really need to do is step outside, strap on your skis and head straight into the skiing fun. However, even a hotel by the lift or with a ski shuttle allows for a skiing holiday with short distances: you can leave the car behind, there’s no need to hunt for a parking space, and you don’t have to carry your ski equipment over long distances every day.

Who benefits most from ski-in/ski-out accommodation?

A hotel right on the slopes saves you the hassle of travelling and makes your day on the slopes particularly hassle-free. The following groups benefit most of all:

  • Ambitious skiers: Get out on the slopes early and make the most of your time skiing.
  • Families: Avoid having to carry skis, ski boots and children’s equipment over long distances every day.
  • Couples & leisure seekers: Head straight into the ski area and then return directly to the hotel and the wellness area with its sauna.
  • Short-break holidaymakers: Less time spent on transfers and searching for a parking space, more time on the slopes.

When choosing a ski hotel, it’s not just the direct location on the slopes that counts. It’s handy to have a ski room or ski storage area with ski boot warmers, as well as a ski hire shop and a ski school in the immediate vicinity. You should also check how far away the ski lift, cable car or valley station is, and whether you can return to the hotel directly via the slopes. Some hotels also offer ski pass packages or include a ski pass in the price. If you’d like to relax after a day’s skiing, you can also look out for hotels with a wellness area and sauna.

Frequently asked questions

What are the advantages of a skiing holiday right next to the slopes in South Tyrol?
