Pricey , but it would be hard to beat the apres here as it isn't just the usual 1 or 2 hours! it can go on much longer into the night.

A bit limited for real beginners, but excellent once they have progressed. Bad luck that this week was no good for off piste due to snow conditions, but there looked to be lots of great off piste to be had when the conditions were right.

Beautiful place, very helpful and friendly people. Most things quite expensive, made even more so by the pound-euro exchange rate.

Brilliant apres ski, tried several venues and always had great fun and strangely always ended up staggering home afterwards.

As a very nervous intermediate skier, I find there are more than enough challenging runs to keep me entertained. Lift system is modern and efficient and attended by very helpful Austrians.

My favourite ski resort! Its really picturesque with a great friendly atmosphere, nice restaurants and fabulous shops. Almost worth giving the slopes a miss for a day. You can buy Prada, Chloe, Louis Vuitton etc. from bags to evening dress! Don't forget the credit cards, you will need them!

Austrian hospitality reigns supreme! Nothing is too much trouble and they love to see you enjoying yourself. At least one night at The Londoner is a must! Lots of great bars for all tastes and pockets.

As a beginner I found this a very good resort. After lessons on the beginners slope right in town there are quite a few options to move on to which made each day vary.

More suited to the mature and family orientated. Try the Hanenkahm downhill start gate ...incredible feeling looking over the tips of the planks !! Check out the named gondolas ..no Martin Bell !!

Without doubt the best apres in the northern hemisphere...some helpful locals even carried 3 of us to our hotel 3 years ago...try the race week I have 4 under my belt and what they say about the Londoner bar is totaly correct.

Great for intermediates especially with the new link into Brixen via Westendorf. Despite its reputation Kitzbuhel is not an advanced ski area although the Strief has some challenging sections.

The best ski holiday resort in many respects and despite the glitz there are many locals living and working in the area who keep prices under control in a good number of places.
