What they say
One Michelin Key
Michelin
Gasthof Post is so well-maintained it looks like it was built a hundred years ago but never used.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Set in the heart of Lech village, the hotel sits steps from the historic church, boutique shops, and mountain lifts.
The rooms
Bedrooms feature blond pine, hand-painted folk furniture, and traditional masonry stoves, paired with recessed-lit oil paintings and tailored wool upholstery.
Pool, baths and gym
Bring a swimsuit.
A heated 15-meter outdoor pool steams in the snow, set beside a stone steam room and mountain-facing gym.
The spa
Curved timber suites host treatments with Guerlain and La Prairie, beside stone corridors and glass-fronted relaxation lounges.
Dogs stay too.
Restaurant
Jägerstube
Carved wooden chairs and a traditional tiled masonry stove set the scene for fine Austrian dining in this intimate stube.
At the table
Floor-to-ceiling windows line the bright panorama restaurant, and the timber-clad bar serves classic cocktails and digestifs.
How it began
Originally a historic postal staging station, the house has evolved under the Moosbrugger family since 1937 into a storied Alpine landmark.
