SCHLOSSHOTEL FISS Fiss, Austria


LOCATION: Situated in the heart of the Austrian Tyrol, in the Serfaus-Fiss-Ladis region, family-run Schlosshotel Fiss sits 1,400 metres above sea level, making it relatively snow sure yet easily accessible via a one-hour transfer from Innsbruck Airport or a 30-minute drive from Landeck-Zams train station. The hotel occupies a prime spot at the top of the village and boasts spectacular 360-degree mountain views.

THE FACTS: The property’s origins date back to a hunting lodge and guesthouse built in 1940 before it was reborn as a hotel in 1970. The Domenig family acquired the property in 1991 and now second-generation daughter Simone holds the reins. The 135 individually designed rooms and suites are all personally curated by her, blending traditional cosy elegance with a sleek contemporary feel. Each room has either a terrace or balcony, allowing you to soak in the vistas. There >Ài >lÃo ÌÜo *>noÀ>m> -ÕiÌià >VÀoÃà ÌÜo yooÀà >n` > «ÀiÛ>Ìi Chalet Suite a few steps from the hotel itself.

EXPLORE: The village of Fiss combines historic charm and characterful buildings set among steep winding streets. During our stay we were treated to the Unesco-recognised Fisser Blochziehen, a centuries-old Tyrolean carnival tradition that occurs every four years. A huge pine tree, the ‘Bloch’, is pulled through the village on a decorated wooden sled. The festive procession is accompanied by bizarrely masked costumed characters, including men dressed as witches who sweep vigorously at your legs with their brooms as they pass, banishing the dark spirits of winter.


WOW: Guests will be highly impressed by the spa, food and overall ambience at Schlosshotel Fiss. The ability to ski in and ski out from the lift located in the boot room is a real bonus – ÞoÕ V>n wniÃh ÞoÕÀ LÀi>kv>ÃÌ >n` mominÌÃ l>ÌiÀ Li LÕÀnin} iÌ off carving the slopes.
