Sonnbichl

In a tranquil spot close to St Jakob, this family-run, adults-only chalet extends a friendly welcome. Decked out in pine furnishings and affording mountain views, the rooms are spacious, spotless and bright – the pick of which have balconies. There's a sauna for a postslope unwind and a highly regarded traditional restaurant (mains €17 to €24) serving the likes of venison ragout and schnitzel.
