What skiers actually need
Comfortable rooms, a proper breakfast, fast wifi, an easy arrival and the lift almost at the door. Everything is built around one thing: more time on snow. From your room to the Albona lift takes less than 60 seconds.
Breakfast, and more next door
Breakfast is served in two breakfast rooms: fresh bread rolls, cold cuts, cheese, egg dishes, coffee and tea. The Motel has no evening restaurant. Right next door is the Ski Hotel Mondschein with the Alte Gaststube, fondue evenings, the Chef's Table and the bar.
Where skiing began
Stuben is where Hannes Schneider developed the Arlberg technique, the foundation of modern skiing. A small village with an average of nine metres of fresh snow each winter. You do not just stay here, you ski where it all started.

Three long descents from three mountain sectors end in Stuben, a few steps from the Motel:
Descent 01, for advanced skiers
Albona North Face
Freeride and powder, from around 2,400 down to 1,400 metres, about 1,000 vertical metres, finishing right in Stuben.
Descent 02, piste
Schindler to Stuben
Around 6 kilometres and 1,200 vertical metres, from high alpine terrain to the door of the Motel ski room.
Descent 03, panorama route
Zürs, Flexenbahn, Stuben
Via the Flexenbahn and the Flexen gallery from Zürs back to Stuben, without a car and without a bus.
