Hotel Sonnalp’s in the laid-back village of Kirchberg, just outside Kitzbühel – so you’ll get easy access to the same top-tier ski area, without the premium price tag. It’s just a short wander to the ski bus stop, and from there, you’re whisked up to the mountain in ten (and it’s totally free). It even drops you right by the ski school meeting point, which is a bit of a win if you're new to the slopes. Back at the hotel, it’s all about recharging and getting cosy – there’s an indoor pool and a wellness area with saunas, a steam bath and an infrared cabin. Massages and treatments are on offer too, if you’re after a bit more pampering.
From the outside, it’s a classic Austrian chalet-style building – think timber detailing, cream walls and a snow-covered roof that looks right at home against the pine-covered hills. Inside, things are comfy with a touch of alpine charm. Rooms are done up in soft neutrals, light wood and rich burgundy tones.
Food-wise, you’ll start the day with a buffet breakfast stacked with Continental staples – cereals, toast, cold cuts and cheeses – plus hot picks like bacon, eggs and sausages. Come evening, there’s a four-course buffet dinner, complete with a salad bar and weekly Tyrolean dishes. And if you fancy something to sip, the rustic hotel bar’s got you covered with cocktails, aperitifs and a solid wine list.

Tourist Tax
In some resorts, you’ll need to pay a small fee called a ‘tourist tax' at your accommodation, either when you check in or check out.
These taxes can change at short notice, so it’s always worth checking the latest details before you travel.
Good to know: Not all accommodation accepts card payments for taxes, so you may need to pay in cash instead. For some countries, tourist taxes are calculated based on an accommodation's official rating, which can be different to its rating on our/the operators site.
