The Waldhof hits the mark when it comes to facilities. First up is a relaxing wellness area, where you can swim, soak in a hot tub or stretch out in a sauna. Next, you've got two separate play areas for the kids. For the tots, there's one with a ball pit and climbing tower, while older ones and teens have a room with computer consoles. And sticking with the games theme, there's also another room with classics like table football and pool.

Bang in the centre of Saalbach, opposite the village church, is the Sporthotel Berger. There’s a really traditional feel from top to bottom, but the owners have added their own distinctive twist to the décor too.

And then there are the staff, who go the extra mile to make you feel at home, from remembering your favourite tipple at the bar to sharing resort tips

For a comfortable stay in a rustic-styled hotel in Sestriere, go for the Principi. This spot has plenty of room types to suit all kinds of skier, from those going solo to families of up to 6. And location-wise, you have a piste-side spot on the mountain. So – depending on snow conditions – you could almost ski right back to the hotel. Or you can hop on the hotel shuttle if you’re still learning the ropes at ski school.

Grand Hotel Sestriere is perfectly located close to the slopes, offering comfort, convenience and excellent facilities. After a day on the mountain, relax in the cosy bar and explore the impressive wine list, with over 1,500 labels to choose from.

For an extra charge, you can use the 10-pin bowling and arcade games or the spa – it’s a luxurious retreat where you can take time for yourself in the hydromassage pool, hot tubs and saunas. And while you’re unwinding, the kids can have fun with games and activities in the free children’s club
