A return to this superb resort following
fantastic feedback!
A
buzzy resort in a splendid location, St Anton lives up to its reputation
as the place for big skiing, soft snow and serious nightlife. Perched up
high in the Arlberg region of Austria, St Anton is a delightful mix of
old and new architecture with inviting shops lining a pedestrian main
street.
Magnificent bowls and gullies are guaranteed to get your heart racing
whatever the snow conditions.
Although St Anton is best known as a resort
for experienced skiers and snowboarders. Intermediates will find plenty
of friendly runs across Gampen, Rendl and St Christoph. For a morale
boost on perfectly groomed pistes, head over to Lech and Zurs, easily
reached by bus. For those wanting adventure, the high speed Telebenne or
Galzig lifts take you from the ski resort centre to the magnificent
unpisted bowls and gullies. Also to be enjoyed is the long blast down to
Stuben where the chairlifts serve a vast area of un-crowded north facing
powder fields.
Apres Ski
St Anton comes into its own at night. The party starts early at the
infamous Mooserwirt bar. Nestled on the mountain just above the village;
it's in a spectacular location. Later, there's an abundance of excellent
late night coffee shops, bars, restaurants, discos and live music -
sleep will be the last thing on your mind;
but if you'd rather relax in the evenings and do something more low key,
the resort has a fabulously stylish spa centre with indoor and outdoor
pools. Those exhausted from their day on the slopes however may prefer a
good meal followed by a quiet drink in the Chalethotel bar.
Chalet
Rosanna Ski Accommodation Our accommodation is the Chalethotel Rosanna which is located in
the town centre off the main pedestrianised thoroughfare and only five
minutes walk away from the ski schools and the main lifts so if you
don't want to miss a moment of the St. Anton lifestyle this is a great
place to be!
Built in traditional chalet design, the interior is stylish, decorated
in dark wood and rich fabrics. The lounge and bar are warm and
welcoming. Adult only for most of the season, the chalethotel Rosanna is
lively and sociable. All bedrooms and bathrooms are modern and extremely
comfortable. Bedrooms are made up of twins or Austrian twins, and are a
good size with en suite bathrooms and cable TV.
On the ground floor there's a spacious dining room and comfy lounge with
bar. Right next door is Scotty's Bar & Pizzeria with lively apres ski
atmosphere. Meals in our restaurant are always hearty and plentiful and
the daily menu has plenty of choice. Full English breakfasts make a
great start to a day on the slopes, and our delicious tea at the end of
the day are well received.
