STOP at the TOP: the summit of delight at an altitude of 2,150m in Austria’s highest non-glacier ski area and the heart of the soaring Ötztal Alps. The 5-star superior Relais & Châteaux TOP Hotel Hochgurgl’s charm reflects dignified tradition, Alpine flair and cutting-edge hospitality. Third generation hoteliers, Alban, Attila, Jasmin and Sabine Scheiber are driving the TOP Hotel forwards with innovation and creativity.

A 5-star superior Scheiber skiing holiday comprises linked-up services that meet the highest standards on the TOP Hotel’s doorstep: 112km of perfectly groomed slopes in the Obergurgl-Hochgurgl ski area – one of the world’s ten most attractive winter sports destinations and considered the Alps’ most snow-sure ski area – as well as 11 restaurants at up to 3,080m above sea level, Austria’s highest-altitude ski school and five sports and fashion retailers.
