Cradled amidst the Austrian Alps, the town of Lech is home to world-famous locales for winter sports and, of course, incomparable views of the mountainous surroundings. The town also features some of Europe’s oldest churches, incredible museums, and philosophical conventions and symposiums like no other. Of course, the ideal journey at Lech includes a stay at Hotel & Chalet Aurelio, the luxury hotel for creating memorable moments.
Committed to fulfil all their guests’ wishes, the service at Aurelio is unparalleled, with 24 hour concierge services, luxury shopping trips, helicopter transport, golfing experiences and a unique set of Alpaca-related activities, in which guests can interact, mount and even enjoy yoga sessions with the fluffy animals. Activities and amenities vary between the summer and winter seasons, allowing guests to indulge in different experiences year-round.
The eighteen exclusive rooms all offer spacious chambers and a combination of modern elegance and alpine charm. The Top Deluxe Double Rooms offers mountain views, a balcony, multimedia centre, a bathtub and a rainfall shower in the bathroom. The Aurelio Suite, with 110 square metres, features special details and design elements, as well as a separate bedroom, living room, a balcony with views to the mountains and a bathtub and shower in the bathroom. All rooms include a complimentary welcome drink, afternoon cake, and a garage parking space, as well as free use of the exclusive spa area. The whole hotel can be reserved as a private residence too.
However, should a private stay be desired, the distinctive chalet is the best option for discerning guests. With space for up to 16 people, the 2 suites and six double rooms in the chalet have access to the spacious living room, open fireplace, library, private wellness area and a garage parking space per room. Upon the reservation, the guests at the chalet also count with the services of a private cook and a butler service, turning this into a space deserving of the “Luxury Chalet of the Year” in 2016.
