The 4* superior Edelweiss & Gurgl has been run by the same family for generations and attracts guests who return year after year. It is located in a prime position in the heart of Obergurgl, next to two ski lifts, with skiing right to the door. They take pride in offering excellent service and delicious food.

In 2020 the hotel underwent a complete facelift, to give it a fresh look that combines traditional Alpine style with a fresh, modern feel. This includes stylish rooms with luxurious ensuites, a modern, comfortable lounge bar and an extended spa - the Glacier Spa - 1,200m² of relaxation.

The Edelweiss & Gurgl welcomes families and offers a wide selection of family rooms and suites. There is also an après-ski kids' club, so children can make new friends and have fun while the adults enjoy the après-ski bar, relax in the spa or just have a quiet meal together.

Lifts include 11 mountain gondolas (including one that directly links Obergurgl and Hochgurgl), 7 chairlifts and 7 draglifts.
