The food was good, hearty meals after a day on the slopes. Around 8 mins walk to the slopes, through the centre of town. We were misinformed that you needed a lift pass but for the nursery slopes you didn’t. + more

It’s a fairly basic hotel; inside, everything is basic but comfortable and clean. The efficient Austrian landlady did everything to a good standard.

Overview: hotel description: Hotel Briem description

If you’re after never-ending views and Austrian charm then you’ll like Hotel Briem. Once you step through the door you feel you're in the real Austria. Staff members wearing classic Austrian dress welcome you.

The views will make you fall in love with the wide Brixen valley. Situated on the road that leads down to the railway station, Hotel Briem is away from the busy central area - meaning stunning, uninterrupted views of the Brixen Valley in both directions – but it’s still only a 350 metre walk or an easy ski bus ride to Westendorf centre, the nursery slopes or the main gondola.

The great facilities, include a modern spa with sauna, steam room and infrared cabin - great for loosening up after a day on the slopes. You’ll enjoy the homely feeling, hearty breakfast and Tirolean character. The hotel bar provides a cosy setting for an after-dinner drink.

•Part of the SkiWelt •Varied terrain •Efficient lift system

Lovely old Westendorf is easily one of the prettiest Austrian ski resorts – but there’s more to this village than Alpine charm galore. It’s one of the nine resorts in the whopping SkiWelt area, and with Kitzbühel just along the valley there’s no shortage of excellent skiing.

Known as one of the most beautiful villages in Europe, sunny Westendorf has glorious views of the Windau valley and is fit to bursting with old school Austrian charm. A pastel yellow, onion-domed church is surrounded by wooden chalets and trees, the wild and rugged Wilder Kaiser massif towering in the distance. Traffic jams, flashing lights and concrete tower blocks are worlds away. It doesn‘t take long to make the break from busy town life. A short transfer time (around an hour) from Innsbruck Airport mea...
A great advantage of Westendorf’s position is the fact that slopes there are generally quieter than on the main SkiWelt circuit due to most of the skiing being on the other side of the valley between Brixen and Scheffau. Gentle nursery slopes are conveniently located near the village, and there are some gentle blues like Piste 11, a long and scenic run through the trees. Intermediates are spoilt for choice with around 128km of red runs to conquer in the SkiWelt massif. Some highlights include the red ...
The après is lively but compared with nearby Kitzbühel; it’s more contained and family-oriented. That being said, there are some great places to have a drink after a day on the slopes. The après ski starts on the slope-side sun terraces when the lifts begin to close. Favourites are the Bruchstall and Gerry’s Inn based on nursery slopes 83 and 84. Later in the evening popular bars include the Village Pub and Kibo both of which have regular live music evenings. For a classy evening out with friends, try Moski...

"Just what you need"

David
4/ out of 5
The food was good, hearty meals after a day on the slopes. Around 8 mins walk to the slopes, through the centre of town. We were misinformed that you needed a lift pass but for the nursery slopes you didn’t.

It’s a fairly basic hotel; inside, everything is basic but comfortable and clean. The efficient Austrian landlady did everything to a good standard. It’s certainly not luxurious but it was fine for what we needed. Although it’s a cheap hotel, it does its job perfectly well in terms of being somewhere to eat, drink and sleep in the evenings. The food was adequate – what you’d expect from this standard hotel. They had a salad buffet in the evenings and a choice of 2 starters and 2 main courses. There’s a fairly small swimming pool down in the basement which was nice. Only drawback is that everyone smokes in the hotel because you still can in Austria, you’ll get adults in the bar and lounge smoking which isn’t too pleasant but at least they didn’t smoke in the dining room. It’s not far to walk to the ski area, about 5 mins and the hotel had its own ski locker. Generally a good hotel for anyone wanting to ski for cheap.
