So, what are you looking for in a ski holiday? A fun ski area, nearby ski lifts, a bed for the night, food to stop mum worrying about you and your mates and the best nightlife in the resort right on your doorstep? Well look no further.

The Sporthotel Niederau is a pretty basic set-up, but where it stands out is its location. You can more or less roll out of bed and onto the Markbachjoch gondola. And for when you want to explore a bit further afield, the ski bus stop is about a minute away on foot too. Food is simple yet filling - expect hearty dishes like pizza and lasagne. If you love your après as much as you love your on (and off) piste shenanigans then this place should tick a lot of boxes. Downstairs are the lively White Rabbit bar and O'Malley's Irish bar with regular live music and party tunes playing until after midnight. The Sporthotel is a party hotel, so no kids please.
