5-STAR HOTEL: PURE LUXURY.
The 5-star hotel Das Central is one of the places to stay in the Ötztal Alps – it is also the BMW M Driving Experience partner hotel. This luxurious retreat is among Austria’s leading gourmet hotels and is located just minutes’ walk from the village ski lifts. It offers stylish, modern rooms and suites, including junior suites and penthouse suites with incredible views of the surrounding mountains. Another highlight is the wellness suites that have their own personal spa area.
The 2,000-square-meter Summit Spa provides an incredible spa experience above the rooftops of Sölden. Relax in the spa’s 10 saunas, steam baths, and the 17-meter-long infinity pool. Gourmands are drawn to the hotel restaurant “Ötztaler Stube” that has over 30,000 wines stored in its cellar and has been awarded three toques by the Gault&Millau guide, with a total of 16 points.
GOURMET RESTAURANT ICE Q.
At an altitude of 3,048 meters, on the summit of Gaislachkogl, sits the gourmet restaurant ice Q – Austria’s highest restaurant with two Gault&Millau toques. The complete glass cubical structure was a scene in the James Bond movie “Spectre.” You not only can enjoy haute cuisine but also fantastic views of the surrounding peaks. The Wine & Tapas Lounge is the perfect place to relax and, when the weather is nice, the large panoramic terrasse is opened. Among the specialties of the house is the wine PINO 3000: a Pinot Noir from three top winemakers in Austria, Italy, and Germany that matures to unique perfection at 3,000 meters above sea level.
007 ELEMENTS.
Right next to the gourmet restaurant ice Q is the next highlight on the Gaislachkogl. “007 Elements” is a cinematic installation spread over two levels and over 1,300 square meters, showcasing original props and video installations from the Hollywood blockbuster “Spectre” and other James Bond films.
