Overview
If packing in the piste time is your top priority, take a look at this great-value annexe of the Hotel Schmittenhof. A blue piste runs behind the building, so you can click in and slide down to the nearby gondola, then ski back to the door once you're done for the day. Or if you’re just starting out, the ski school meeting point is just a short walk away.
Inside, it's fuss-free and things are simple rather than showy in the bedrooms. And if you're after a bit of R&R after a day on the mountain, you can pay a little extra to use the sauna and steam room in the Hotel Schmittenhof next door.
You’ll be heading to the Schmittenhof at mealtimes too. Fuel up for a day of slope swooshing at the buffet breakfast and take your pick from platters of cold cuts, hot eggs and bacon and stacks of freshly cooked pancakes. And you'll be heading back in the evening for four courses of dishes from near and far.

About Zell am See
Zell am See skiing
Set by Lake Zell, Zell am See and its bus-linked neighbour Kaprun make up the 'Europa Sport' region, with a total of 130km of runs, 80 of which are at Zell. The setting is one of Zell's biggest selling points, with lovely views of the lake from the medieval town and the slopes above. The ski area caters well for beginners intermediates keen on improving technique in the mostly tree-lined pistes. Advanced skiers have the Kitzsteinhorn glacier located down the road at nearby Kaprun.
Zell am See ski resort
The lakeside town has loads of activities for those not on skis or a board, with lively nightlife, decent restaurants and a full range of accommodation. It is good to check where you are staying in relation to the lifts, as there is a short free bus to access the slopes. For skiing, it is also worth exploring some of the other terrain in the area, like Saalbach, Bad Gastein and Schladming. Overall, Zell is a lovely spot for a winter holiday, with or without skiing.
The beautiful setting gives Zell am See a unique atmosphere not found in many Austrian resorts, and really sets it apart. Despite the smaller ski area, Zell am See remains one of Austria's top 5 resorts, and deservedly so.
