Family Time at the Baby Hotel in the Zillertal

“At our baby-friendly hotel in the Zillertal, we’ve made a conscious decision not to offer traditional on-site childcare, because when you’re on vacation with a baby or toddler, spending quality time together as a family is what matters most to us. In winter, however, parents can still enjoy some relaxing time on the slopes: Right in the Hochzillertal ski area, professional childcare is available, where the little ones are lovingly and well cared for.”

Family Apartments for Vacations with a Baby

Our spacious family apartments combine privacy, comfort, and flexibility—ideal for a relaxing family vacation in Tyrol with a baby or toddler. The stylish and fully equipped apartments offer you a private oasis of well-being in our upscale 4-star aparthotel in Austria.

  1. Fully equipped kitchen: Prepare baby food and your own meals with ease.
  2. Safety features: Stair gates, fall protection, and sturdy furniture ensure safety.
  3. Plenty of space: Spacious living and sleeping areas provide ample room for the whole family.
  4. Baby-friendly bathroom: A changing table, baby bathtub, diaper pail, and walk-in shower are provided.
  5. Peaceful nights: Blackout curtains, along with well-insulated windows and walls, create a pleasant, quiet atmosphere.
     

Tip for a family vacation in the Zillertal! Some of our family apartments can be combined with adjacent double rooms or other apartments to create spacious penthouse suites and chalets—perfect for a vacation with grandparents, friends, or a nanny traveling with you.

Stroller and Baby Carriage Rental

We provide high-quality strollers and baby carriages for toddlers free of charge. As a family-friendly hiking hotel, we also offer top-quality backpacks and baby carriers for hikes with a stroller.  In winter, families can borrow sleds with backrests free of charge. If you’re wondering which stroller-friendly walking and hiking trails in Tyrol are both manageable and fun, the Zillertal is the perfect place for you. Here are some of the most beautiful hiking trails for strollers:

  • Stillupsee (1,300 m): A traffic-calmed route along the crystal-clear mountain lake with alpine huts and flexible access (bus transfer to Gasthof Wasserfall).
  • Wimmertal (1,100 m): An idyllic hike to the Wimmertalalm with a small playground—a perfect destination for families.
  • Schönachtal near Gerlos (approx. 1,200 m): A sun-drenched valley, ideal for leisurely walks with breathtaking views.

Tip! The Zillertal offers ideal destinations at moderate altitudes. Especially popular with young families: a family bike ride along the Ziller River to the valley’s most beautiful playgrounds. Why? For infants under one year of age, it’s recommended to avoid extended stays above 1,800 meters, as they are not yet able to regulate pressure equalization on their own.
