The house
ZillerSeasonsAlpine timber hideaway

What they say
One Michelin Key
Michelin
their abiding principles are most evident in the predominant material: locally sourced timber (spruce, oak, and Swiss pine) in all its untreated, beautifully knotted glory.
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Set in central Zell am Ziller, the lodge sits steps from the ski bus to the Zillertal Arena slopes and local valley trails.
The rooms
Suites feature handmade Swiss stone pine beds and natural rubber mattresses, with private balconies framing sunrise and sunset across the valley.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
Swimmers enter from indoors directly into the solar-heated outdoor lap pool, bordered by timber decking and birch trees.
The spa and saunas
Indoor and garden saunas join herbal steam baths and an outdoor Kneipp basin beside wood-lined waterbed lounges.
Dogs stay too.
Restaurant
DieMarie
DieMarie serves regional Tyrolean cooking from local organic farms under timber beams and a bright glass roof.
At the table
Bar Luise serves signature cocktails, single-malt whiskies, and Austrian wines along an illuminated timber counter.
How it began
The Binder-Egger family rebuilt a former post-war village inn into an eco-conscious retreat using locally sourced Tyrolean timber.
