The health of our guests and our employees is our top priority. Therefore, we have taken some safety precautions and measures in relation to Covid-19 in our hotel – which our managing director Dr. med. Hartwig Koch are always closely monitored. Safety, well-being and health are well taken care of, even if we currently have to get used to some new rules in our daily interaction. Nothing stands in the way of a happy break with culinary flights of fancy and relaxing hours in the untouched Tyrolean mountains.

We look forward to welcoming you soon – even if for the time being without a handshake or hug. We’ll save these for later. But rest assured: our smile and our good mood will reach you! If you have any questions or requests, please do not hesitate to contact us by phone or email.

Covid-19 action plan

In order to ensure a safe and successful winter season, specific winter rules have been developed by the federal government:

• FFP2 mask replaces the mouth and nose protection again
  An FFP2 mask must be worn again wherever it was previously mandatory to wear a face mask. This concerns the trade of daily needs as well as public transport. Unvaccinated people are obliged to wear an FFP2 mask in all trading companies. For the best possible protection, the recommendation is to wear an FFP2 mask for everyone.
• 2-G rule proof (vaccinated or recovered) must be carried by every person aged 12 and over.
  Vaccinated: 21 days after 2nd vaccination (not older than 9 months) with AstraZeneca, Biontech or Moderna. The second “booster vaccination” is also required for a vaccination with Johnson&Johnson after 6 months. Vaccination with Sputnik is not recognised in Austria at the current status.
  Recovered: The disease did not occur more than 6 months ago and there is a certificate of isolation and medical confirmation.
• Stricter controls by the authorities
  The federal government has announced stricter controls on the measures in force. The careful control of the 3-G regulation as well as the implementation of the contact tracing must be observed urgently.

Adjusted cancellation conditions also for winter 2021/2022

The following conditions will be set for winter 2021/2022:

• A free cancellation / rebooking is possible for the guest up to 14 days before the start of the holiday without giving reasons.
• Free cancellation / rebooking is possible up to the day of arrival under the following conditions:
  • When classifying the country of origin as a risk area and the associated quarantine regulations on arrival
  • In the event of an upright travel warning for Austria / Tyrol / Serfaus-Fiss-Ladis region and the associated quarantine obligations on the return journey
  • Border closings
  • Official closure of the mountain railways and infrastructure companies
  • Official closure of the accommodation facilities

We STRONGLY recommend that you take out travel cancellation insurance. All the necessary details can be found on the website of Europäische Reiseversicherung.
