The Hotel Kertess is full of character and tradition, and sits in an elevated position looking towards the beautiful Rendl mountain. You'll never be far from the action as it's only 15 minutes' walk to the village centre and ski lifts. If you don't fancy the walk one morning, hop on the ski bus that stops directly outside the hotel.

It's a stylish hotel with friendly staff and excellent in-house facilities. The rooms are decorated with warm colours and Austrian-inspired soft furnishings. With everything you need to make your stay comfortable, these rooms are an ideal retreat after a busy day on the slopes.

The traditionally decorated, wooden-clad dining room hosts the buffet breakfast and 4-course evening meals. If you fancy a break from the slopes, head back to the hotel in the late afternoon for an afternoon snack.

If you fancy a little rest and recuperation, head to the indoor pool, sauna and steam room for a well-deserved relax. For a real treat, go all out and book a massage.
