Zürs, nestled in Austria’s legendary Arlberg ski area, is a dream for snow lovers with slopes soaring from 2,811m to 1,300m. What makes it even better? The hotels. Whether you’re after a luxurious spa retreat, a stylish design stay, or a cosy family-friendly chalet, Zürs delivers—with many offering ski-in, ski-out convenience right on your doorstep. For luxury, stick close to the lifts; families will love the quieter spots just outside the centre, perfect for relaxed apres-ski evenings.

Thanks to its altitude and position in the Alps, Zürs enjoys reliably excellent snow and jaw-dropping scenery, which explains its enduring popularity. But don’t worry—despite the crowds, the infrastructure is so good that waiting in line is rarely an issue. This is, after all, the birthplace of the ski school, with terrain that caters to every level, from nursery slopes in Zürs and gentle pistes in Lech to off-piste adventures for the more daring. One highlight is the legendary Weisse Ring, a 22 km run linking the two resorts.
