Ski Welt: a world of skiing for the youngest tourists and their parents
A family holiday in the Austrian Alps will be unforgettable if you choose the budget hotels in Elmau or other neighbouring Ski Welt villages. The perfect combination of affordable prices and impeccable service ensures good spirits and comfort. A well-developed tourist infrastructure with shops, pharmacies, snack bars, restaurants and, of course, sports equipment hire, as well as an excellent in-house ski area with numerous easy slopes, means there's nothing to bore the young or the young at heart. Hotels in Scheffau, the smaller and quieter neighbouring village, offer accommodation for families who prefer more seclusion. When choosing family hotels in Soell, be aware that the British love to stay in the resort. The slopes in this sunny valley are ideal for beginners. Hotels in Westendorf and other villages in the Brixen Valley are a good option for those who value comfort and plan their holidays in detail. Hofgarten is not a bad place to stay, as hotels in Hofgarten are reasonably priced. And the location of this cosy little resort is such that the youngest athletes can enjoy hours of skiing and sledging on the gentle slopes, followed by a walk to the famous Alpeniglu ice village, which is just a stone's throw away.
