  Time from Zurich: 3 hour drive or train to Landeck-Zams and 2 buses up the hill. You could probably find a taxi company to drive you up to Fiss.  https://www.familienhotel-laurentius.com/ Food Good to very good. Lunch buffet was not so exciting/often left-overs from the night before but there was continuous food and cakes in the afternoon were nice.  First table they gave us was right in thoroughfare but they moved us to a nice window table on request  Kids buffet starts at 6 Kids Club  Had a really nice big play area indoors for parents and kids, including small soft play, games consoles and lots of ride-on cars.  Separate kids club without parents. Staff seemed very good. Flexible. Not chaotic and ratios seemed good. Lots of activities with the kids (e.g. going out on walks etc.)  Pool & Amenities Indoor and small outdoor pool for families. Fun triple slide. Nice little baby pool with toys. the pool area nice and new and renovated, never felt b...

  Time from Zurich: 3 hour drive or train to Landeck-Zams and 2 buses up the hill. You could probably find a taxi company to drive you up to Serfaus. Renting a car to drive there is a bit pointless because the village is car-free.  https://www.loewebaer.com/de/hotel-baer Good for: Visiting a really fantastic mountain area with endless things to do with kids Enjoying the beach club (outdoor pool, large sand play area and trampolines) when the weather is good Food We were in the smaller dining room (garden?) by the beach that was really nice and private. The main dining room seemed a bit more hectic The evening meal is very good. Breakfast buffet was a bit less exciting (fresh omelettes included) and the salad bar wasn’t very exciting, but the quality of the served meal compensated for this. The bar wasn’t great - a bit dingy and we didn’t have a drink there any evening, we were happier at our table in the restaurant.  Kids buffet starts 18:30, could be a bit of a rush to e...

  https://buchau.com/ Time from Zurich: 4-5 hours drive or 4 hour EC train direct to Jenbach and the hotel will pick you up from the station for free (10 min drive) Food  Kids dinner starts at 6 Generally fine with us going to dinner at 8 All inclusive so wine etc doesn’t cost extra. Some cocktails also included  Quality good, not brilliant but kids buffet big hit with Xavi (lots of vegetables and pasta) . I’d say adults meal was a bit variable - some nights v good, others a bit “blah”  Kids club  No parents allowed to stay in the club (good)  Need to book til 9pm the day before but seemed fairly relaxed about this in practice Xavi happy - loads of hot wheels toys. Didn’t seem particularly hectic. Took the kids outside every morning at 10am.  Pool & Amenities  big flume and a triple slide.  Really good toddler pool with mini slide and things for them to play with.  Hot tub (for everyone)  Riding school, Xavi could do a taster po...

https://www.mia-alpina. at 50 minutes drive from Innsbruck airport. You can get to it on public transport from Zurich, just take the train to Jenback where the hotel will arrange a transfer for you (40EUR) or you can connect onto a local train up the valley and get off in Fügen, where the hotel will collect you for free. Highlights Everything in the hotel feels very modern and recently renovated. It’s a stylish hotel. Some of the renovated rooms (check the room category) are really fantastic. The bar in the evening was a nice place to spend time and enjoy a few drinks. The kids club was excellent. The staff seemed fantastic and our kids were happy to go, which isn’t always the case. Good e-bike and trailer rental Less strong for The evening meal was more buffet than we’d normally like. Some evenings were only buffet, and the other 2 evenings only one course was served. Service for drinks was also a bit slow. Fügen is good for kids, but not on a par with Serfaus. The town doesn’t seem t...
