Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is well-suited for families with children, offering excellent ski school and childcare options. The rooms are functional, though some show signs of wear and tear. Dining can be hectic and lacks some attention to detail, but there are plenty of food options. Overall, the convenience of the location for skiing is a major plus, despite a few service issues.
Our stay had its ups and downs. The staff was incredibly helpful and accommodating, particularly with our dining arrangements. The facilities for kids were a hit, making our family vacation enjoyable. However, the dining experience was frustrating; the food quality has declined, and we often found the restaurant short on basics like mugs and butter. Overall, the location near the slopes is a huge plus, but improvements are definitely needed in the dining department.
The hotel was an excellent choice for our family ski trip, situated just steps away from the slopes. The kids had a blast with the ski school and activities, and the dining options were quite good. The facilities were well thought out for families, though the dining area can get a bit hectic during peak times. Overall, it was a fantastic experience filled with convenience and fun, making it a stress-free vacation for parents.
We enjoyed a lovely family holiday at the hotel, highlighted by a warm and inviting atmosphere and excellent facilities for kids. The ski slopes were conveniently close, making our skiing experience effortless. However, the dining could use significant improvement as some meals fell short of expectations, particularly for lunch and dinner. Overall, the stay was wonderful, but the food aspect needs attention.
Our stay at Hotel Cristallo was filled with both wonderful aspects and a few disappointments. The hotel is perfectly located for skiing, making it super convenient for families, especially with kids. The facilities for children are extensive, and we appreciated the clean environment. However, the dining experience was somewhat chaotic, and the seating arrangements could use improvement. Overall, it’s an excellent option for families despite some minor issues.
This hotel is an excellent choice for families looking for a stress-free ski holiday. The convenient ski access and well-organized ski school made the experience enjoyable for my kids.

Our stay at the hotel was enjoyable, especially for our family with young kids. The family suite was spacious and well-equipped, which made our time there comfortable. However, the dining experience was somewhat chaotic, especially during peak times, making meals less relaxing than we hoped. The ski facilities nearby were very convenient, but some services could use improvement.
The Falkensteiner Hotel Cristallo is an excellent choice for families, with a well-organized ski school and activities for kids. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, but the dining experience could use some improvement, especially in variety. The convenience of being right next to the slopes makes it ideal for skiing families, but some areas, like the buffet dining space, lack atmosphere.
