Hotel Madlein ~ Ischgl, Austria

Just 100 meters away by escalator from the ski runs and cable cars of the Silvretta ski arena in Ischgl Austria is the Hotel Madlein, the most extraordinary place in the Alps. This first-class hotel offers every luxury that one can imagine: cuddle room, family apartments, and now, new designer suites. A traditional Austrian chalet on the outside... but inside you'll Þnd a totally unconventional Zen-inspired interior. Rooms are light, spacious and airy, with swish modern furnishings. The loft-style designer bedrooms have bathrooms whose walls are made from frosted glass. The emphasis throughout is on stone, glass and wood to reflect the mountains, which you can see everywhere, from the floor-to-ceiling windows to the Japanese garden. There's entertainment at Pacha nightclub, and a Sushi Lounge and gourmet restaurant.
