Fodor's Expert Review Haus Hirt Alpine Spa Hotel
Kaiserhofstrasse 14, Bad Gastein, Salzburg, A-5640, Austria Fodor's Choice
This stylish Alpine lodge, on a hillside about a half mile from the town center, has good amenities for families, spectacular views, and a style that cleverly combines Alpine traditional with contemporary-chic. All rooms are comfortably furnished, and most have views over the valley. For families, the hotel offers everything from prenatal treatments at the spa to nanny service, and while your clan is being cared for, you can enjoy the quiet corners, such as the reading room or the spa, or join one of the daily free activities, from sightseeing to morning yoga.
