Very nice experience. Service is top notch as well as the food. Ambience rules here! Combination of restaurant and museum is surprisingly marvelous. Thumbs up!
There was 8 of us who came for dinner and we were seated in their private dining room which really suited the group vibe. The service was very welcoming and Kathrine was a great waitress. The food was mostly good but it was on the pricier side given the quality. My friend and I shared the herb crusted saddle of lamb (great flavour and perfectly cooked lamb) and the trout with potatoes and root vegetables (the fish was cooked nicely but the flavour overall was very bland).
A really nice place to go for dinner when you are in St Anton. Personel was so friendly. Food was good. The ambiance is great as you are having dinner in a museum. Between courses you can go up with your drink and walk around. Make a reservation, otherwise it might be full.
A true gem in St Anton. Worth the short walk up the hill to eat in a traditional Austrian building. The food is excellent - highly recommend the Schnitzel! Reservations not required for lunch - we walked in twice and had plenty of choice for a table.
This is a very upscale restaurant situated in historical old house with amazing atmosphere of the 19th century. The service and food are impeccable. Our server was very friendly and accommodated all our requests, including those that were out of the menu. For instance, one of my friends asked if the chef could make a duck breast instead of the main course as an appetizer, and they did just that. Everything was very delicious, starting from the bread and butter. They do provide you with apricot oil, which I initially thought is flavored olive oil. But no, it is a special kind of apricot oil and was so delicious that we had to ask for extra. My absolute favorite was lamb, version, and duck. From their desert menu, it is an absolute must to have Kaiserschmarm, which is arguably the best in Austria, and definitely in St. Anton. The creme Brule is also insane! We were offered a free shot of schnapps. Please take the hazelnut flavor. You will thank me later. But it wasn't it, as I mentioned the restaurant is located in a historical house and the second floor operates as a museum. Usually they charge 5 euros to visit it, but after 7 pm it is free. Our server was kind enough to give us a quick overview of the history of the region and town. The museums are small and composed only by 5 rooms, but it is informative and interesting enough to visit it to learn the history of the region. Overall it is a very nice and tasty place with a beautiful view. Please make a reservation to visit it
Such pleasant owners to work with! Very accommodating! Special Austrian dinner on our last night! Everyone enjoyed their meat dishes! I’d stay clear of the vegetarian entrée- resembled texture and taste of spinach baby food. Everything else was really nice - they made our daughters birthday lovely!
Treated ourselves to Museum for our final Austrian dinner. The service was good, and the food was fantastic. We got the beef tartare to start, the venison and tafelspitz as mains, and the hot love for dessert. All were delicious, food was served quickly once we put our orders through, and the museum itself is interesting!
Beautiful setting delicious food. We really enjoyed our valentine's dinner here. Everything was tasty well cooked and presented beautify. Service was great also. The do get really full for dinner so make a reservation ahead of time. Overall amazing experience. Highly recommend.

Tom Jank was our guide over the xmas break. We had a large group of eight skiers with different skill levels. Tom did a great job quickly assessing what our group was capable of on the hill and took us on terrain that we never imagined we’d be doing in the Alps. The on piste was icy and filled with people. Tom took us far away from the crowds and into deep powder with great views. We enjoyed the experience so much we asked for him again. The trip would not have been the same with Tom guiding us.
The best day with Tom in the backcountry. A full day of touring - alone on the mountain. Not only does Tom know the area of Arlberg like his own back pocket (he grew up here), he showed us the best day. Even though it has been several weeks since the last bigger snowfall Tom found us real frosty powder.
I'm definitely not what you'd call a natural snowboarder, and after about 6 hours of lessons, one holiday on the slopes in Solden and various trips to the indoor dome, I arrived in St Anton with zero confidence. My previous instructors just did not make any real progress with me and I was quite apprehensive about what my experience with Walter would be like. I shouldn't have worried because he was fantastic and in less than 6 hours, spread over 2 days, he had me linking turns down the mountain with confidence id never had before. He is patient, calm and doesn't seem to have a "one size fits all approach" to how he teaches and I felt like I was in good hands straight away. The progress came quickly and I would absolutely recommend him to anybody wanting to have snowboarding lessons.
I cannot recommend ‘Arlberg Classic’ ski school any more highly…such a pleasure to deal with & Jeremy our guide for the morning was a true professional & passionate about his job. He went above & beyond with tips & advice for my son & I & we learned soooo much from him. My confidence soared & our technique greatly improved. I have been skiing over 30 yrs & have to say ‘Best Ski Instructor EVER!!!! Thank you sooo much …10 stars all the way ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I’m a 50 year old beginner, and my 3 days with Josi were just what the doctor ordered! With a mixture of humor and sound technique he really improved my skiing to the extent that i could conquer blue runs on my own. Thanks Josi!
had a great experience with Jeremy from Alpin Skischule. It was one of my first times skiing, and I must say he did a fantastic job. He is a highly professional and extremely experienced ski instructor. We had a lot of fun, and most importantly, thanks to him, I was able to ski. I highly recommend him not only to beginners but to all skill levels. Hopefully, I’ll be back to ski together again. Thank you, Jeremy—you’re a star!
On Thursday last week, we met with powder Tom who took a group of 7 of us up on a hike up to where Valuga would normally take lots of people, but is closed at the moment so we had the mountain to ourselves. All safety precautions were taken and Tom made us feel very safe as a result. He took us down what was probably the best off-piste skiing any of us had ever done. We had an absolutely incredible day with powder-tom, who happened to also be the nicest guy! Thanks so much Tom!
Had an awesome time at my 2 x 3hr snowboard lesson with Walter. I snowboard every year but still learnt some new tricks on how I can go faster with more control. Walter is awesome with some cool stories and snowboard wisdom. Recommended for some fun and relaxed times on the slopes!

Very helpful. We wanted some information about winter walking routes around St Anton and they gave us some very good advice as well as maps and brochures and spent time going through various options in detail.
We stopped there to get maps and info. Though my German is not strong I started the conversation in German but the young lady had a badge that showed the British flag and she switched to English. She quickly became short tempered so I asked her to please not get upset with me. Her colleague told her in German to calm down. I am not sure what had happened it was not busy and I was very calm. It worked out at the end but it was an unfortunate first encounter in the beautiful village of Sankt Anton.
People working here are very nice and kind. However, the info they gave me has been mostly false. For example, they told me the bus to and from Lech would be cheaper if you buy a day ticket. This is false because a day ticket is around 7 and one way ticket is 2. Another example is that 2 gondolas the personnel told me that were open were actually closed on that day. Again, nothing wrong with the workers there. They are kind and polite people. It’s simply that they are not fed with updated information. Some problem on the management side.
Always extremely helpful and know what's happening in town. Highly recommend a visit to them even if you're familiar with town and the surrounding areas.
Very helpful. Lots of information about what to do in St Anton aside from skiing!
Friendly customer service personnel. Best place to get all the info that you want to explore around.

(Translated by Google) We've been coming to St. Anton in the summer for over 15 years. Last year, the price of the summer pass almost doubled, which we thought was still quite acceptable given the included discounts. This year, all benefits like one-time use of the cable car, swimming pool, and a 10% discount on bikes (a bike normally costs more than renting a car) have been canceled. Instead, you can purchase the expensive Premium Card. But that only makes sense if you use everything every day. Sorry, that's over the top and a rip-off. It's a shame, but Austria has even more beautiful valleys. It's a shame for such a great rental company. (Original) Wir kommen seit über 15 Jahren im Sommer nach St. Anton. Letztes Jahr Preis für die Sommerkarte fast verdoppelt, was wir noch einigermaßen in Ordnung fanden aufgrund der enthaltenen Vergünstigungen ... in diesem Jahr alle Leistungen wie einmalige Nutzung der Bergbahn, Schwimmbad, Veränderung Bike von 1x 20€ auf 10 % Rabatt (bike kostet regulär mehr als, wenn man ein Auto mietet) gestrichen. Stattdessen kann man teuer die Premiumcard erwerben. Die aber nur Sinn macht, wenn man alles jeden Tag nutzt. Sorry, dass ist drüber und Abzocke. Sehr Schade, aber Österreich hat noch mehr schöne Täler. Schade für tollen Vermieter.

The ride in the small cabin is a little adventure but the views from the platform are spectacular.
One of the most memorable gondola rides you will ever take. Just you and a few very close friends for a spectacular journey to the top of one of the best and longest ski runs in the world.

Big mountains, good for the experience skiing .
Lovely ski resort with very nice little typical villages like Lech or Zürs. Considered as one of the bigger ski resort in Austria, it is quite disappointing to close almost 70% of the ski lifts when the wind is blowing and charging 100% full price! The ski resort does not apply high season / low season pricing making you pay for completely different ski experience. The worst is the commuting between villages, be ready to pay 5.80€ per bus ride from St Anton to Lech for a 20min ride. Of course this is NOT included in your ski pass! What a joke! 100% of the price charged, no possibilities of transferring between villages, and on top they charge you for the bus! It’s simply called a tourists cash machine!
This is one awesome mountin!
Great area!! Summer and winter
