If you've had enough of quaint Tyrolean hotels, this wood-and-glass house is for you. The concept is modern and casual, and it's almost Zenlike in its simplicity. Many rooms can be connected, allowing the hotel to provide accommodations for almost any size group. In the evening, the live DJ turns the café into an après-ski hangout light years away from the usual beer-and-wurst scene. Book in advance, as the hotel has a loyal following. Pros: great architecture; funky vibe. Cons: party crowd can get loud.
