Lavenar

Perched above Pettneu am Arlberg in Tyrol, Austria, this family-run mountain retreat sits right at the ski slope. It’s about 1 km from Pettneu centre and roughly 5 km from St. Anton. Nearby highlights include Wildspitze, the Pischabahn ski lift and Lake Davos.

Family-run and distinctly Tyrolean, the hotel mixes cozy alpine décor with practical comforts. Rooms have a bath or shower, balcony, telephone, cable TV and a room safe. Public spaces include a winter garden, two guest parlours, a house bar, an igloo bar and a large sun terrace.

This all-inclusive property features a new indoor pool with a small children’s pool, plus a sauna and quiet room. Ski storage and direct slope access make it a ski-friendly pick, and the mountain railway next to the hotel links you to the village and shops. Guests get daily unlimited free entry to the Wellnespark Pettneu indoor pool (sauna area for a fee); pool hours typically 4pm–7pm.

On-site restaurant serves a breakfast buffet, a 2-course lunch and a 3-course dinner with choice. Drinks are included all day until 10pm—soft drinks, beer, table wine, coffee and tea—with parasol bar drinks covered; spirits and drinks at the igloo bar incur an extra charge. Expect hearty Tyrolean flavours alongside classic hotel fare.
