About this hotel
General information
Kristiania Lech was founded in 1968 by the Austrian skier Schneider, Olympic slalom champion at the Oslo Games — Kristiania being the city’s old name. The house stands in a quiet, scenic spot close to the centre of Lech, a five-minute walk from the slopes. Every room has its own colour scheme and interior, where Alpine motifs meet elegant classicism, Tyrolean warmth, Viennese Art Nouveau and touches of Africa and China, with works by contemporary artists on the walls.
A restaurant serving Austrian cuisine with an extensive wine list, a fireside bar, a sun terrace and services for children round out this intimate hotel. There is also a 20-seat conference room, parking, car hire, a limousine service, a shuttle to Zurich airport, and laundry and dry cleaning. Dogs are not merely allowed but properly looked after.

The hotel lies in north-western Austria, close to the centre of Lech and next to a ski run, five minutes on foot from the slopes. Innsbruck airport is 120 km away and Langen railway station 17 km; a shuttle runs to Zurich airport.
