Hotel Almhof Schneider Lech
The 5-star Hotel Almhof Schneider is quietly positioned in Lech but still close enough to walk to the centre and the ski lifts or to ski from the front door. Excellent fresh cuisine and stunning contemporary spa facilities complete this stylish and comfortable accommodation offering in the heart of the Arlberg ski area.
A little off the main road through Lech at the foot of the Schlegelkopf, the 5-star Almhof Schneider is quietly positioned but still close enough to walk to the centre and the ski lifts or to ski from the front door. Owned by the Schneider family since the 15th Century and run as a hotel since 1929, the Almhof is a true Arlberg original.
A stunning hotel built in traditional Vorarlberg chalet style with an interior that pays homage to its heritage whilst at the same time celebrating a more modern interpretation of the use of natural materials from the region and of straightforward, functional alpine design, well executed.
Alpine fir panelling, limestone, and walnut are just some of the materials crafted into exquisite form with excellent workmanship. This clever use of timber and stone, set with well-chosen antique furniture, smart, warm fabrics, and open fireplaces, creates the calm elegance and comfortable ambience that makes the Almhof so special.
The Almhof has just 18 rooms and 35 suites. They were individually furnished and finished following the hotel’s design ethos. Some have balconies, a suite with wired internet (as well as Wi-Fi throughout the hotel), flatscreen TVs, and multi are all spacious, and all are ensuite.
An American bar and two restaurants – ‘the Wunderkammer’ and ‘the Restaurant Almhof Schneider’, make for a pleasant evening’s exploration of all that is fresh and good about contemporary alpine and Austrian cuisine.
From a stunning contemporary indoor pool to the steam bath or one of its saunas, the spa at the Almhof leaves little to be desired. A relaxation room, a fully equipped gym, and treatment rooms with two resident massage therapists complete the offering.
The Almhof surprises. Viewed first from the outside, you think you are going to get a traditional, very comfortable Vorarlberg hotel. And you do, but you get a lot more besides and all of it done with an understated style that is always the hallmark of real class.
