Of course! Even though we are not a classic family hotel, families with children feel at home with us. Take a look around our family rooms and suites. We are happy to provide cots, highchairs and baby monitors free of charge for the little ones.
The Alpbachtal loves family visits:
Take your children to the popular children’s playgrounds on the mountain (Lauserland, Juppi Zauberwald), which are accessible free of charge with the Alpbachtal Card.
The Juppi Kid’s Club in Reith im Alpbachtal in Tyrol offers childcare from Monday to Friday, which you can take advantage of free of charge with the Alpbachtal Card.
A visit to the Museum of Tyrolean Farms in Kramsach is great fun with children. Children experience the Museum of Tyrolean Farms in a very special way: with lots of games, quiz stations, puzzles and interactive elements.
Or you can visit Tratzberg Castle in Stans near Schwaz, which also offers its own very exciting guided tours for children.
You can find even more options here. Or ask our reception team, who will be happy to give you their insider tips for your holiday with children.

In principle, your four-legged friend is of course just as welcome as a guest with us. However, as we want to be considerate of all our guests, we ask that you make prior arrangements and that you understand that only certain rooms can be booked for guests with dogs. And: Please bring your own sleeping accommodation (basket, blanket) for your dog. We also ask you to keep your four-legged friend on a lead in the hotel.
We love to have them with us at all times: Dogs are not allowed in the dining room, in the wellness area or on the sunbathing lawn.
Costs: € 30 per day (excluding dog food). Dogs need a muzzle for the bus and cable car.

The Alpbacherhof is one of the Best Alpine Wellness Hotels – 17 family-run 4-star-superior to 5-star-superior hotels in Austria and South Tyrol, which all share a common wellness and quality concept in addition to a breathtaking Alpine backdrop. In conscious symbiosis with nature, body, mind and soul are revitalised with the power of the Alps. The hotel group was founded in its current form in 1992 in order to support each other and pursue this concept together.
In addition to the world-famous European Forum, Alpbach in Austria is also an attractive venue for seminars and congresses, thanks to the modern Congress Centre, which is just a 5-minute walk from our Hotel Tirol. Events can easily be held or attended there and at the same time participants can use the occasion for a relaxing stay in our 4-star wellness hotel.
What else we offer:
- Break organisation: pastries, tea, coffee, juices, fruit for seminar guests
- Lunch or dinner: Depending on your wishes, we are happy to put together a balanced and healthy menu, accompanied by selected wines or our excellent house wine. Smaller groups can eat à la carte, for a larger number of guests we can put together a menu, with a choice of dishes.
- Receptions: We offer flying buffets for up to 500 people, either in our large dining room or in our beautiful garden in summer. Alternatively, we can customise the dining room according to your wishes. Seating is available for up to 200 people.
Before, during and after the business programme, seminar guests can relax in the Panorama Spa, brainstorm together while swimming in the pool or develop visions during a power nap in the relaxation room. Creativity can also be unleashed in the great outdoors: on our panoramic meadow or while hiking or biking in the mountains.
So: What about a workation in Tyrol?
We look forward to your enquiry and will be happy to provide you with a non-binding offer.
Very simple: If you are unable to keep your treatment appointment, we ask you to cancel at least 8 hours in advance. Otherwise we will unfortunately have to charge the full treatment price. However, if you let us know in good time, we can open up the time again for other guests. A win-win situation!
As you can see, our beauty lounge is very well booked. Our tip for you: It’s best to book your desired wellness treatment when you book your room to be on the safe side!
We do not accept any liability for items left behind. But of course we can send you what you have forgotten. We will charge you for the postage, so please bear this in mind.
