Hotel das Seekarhaus

We just booked our stay for next year—and that speaks volumes. This hotel is hands down the best high-end ski resort in Austria, perfectly balancing luxury with family-friendly amenities. It features an exclusive adults-only spa floor, so parents can unwind while the kids enjoy their own dedicated space. Ski lessons begin right at the hotel rather than somewhere off in town, and children even enjoy a specially reserved dining area during classes. Beyond skiing, the hotel offers unparalleled activities for kids, ensuring fun for the whole family. After a day on the slopes, it’s all about relaxing by the pool, savoring gourmet meals, and indulging in the finest wines. Plus, with private Tuesday morning skiing exclusively for guests—thanks to the family’s ownership of the slopes—it really doesn’t get any better in Austria’s most reliably snowy region.

Our ski vacation at Hotel Das Seekarhaus was absolutely amazing! Perfect for families, with everything set up for the kids. The ski-in, ski-out access made hitting the slopes effortless. The food was excellent, and the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. We will definitely be coming back! ⛷️❄️✨

How to Ruin Someone’s Holiday in 5 Minutes: A Das Seekarhaus Experience At Das Seekarhaus, it’s astonishingly easy to leave a bitter taste at the end of a holiday. On the last day of our stay, my wife’s skis were stolen. When we contacted the hotel, we were told her skis were insured, but mine weren’t because the insurance box on my form wasn’t ticked—something nobody had bothered to highlight. Miraculously, we found the stolen skis at the Kringsalm skibar near the hotel. When returning them to the ski rental, we politely suggested the staff inform guests that insurance isn’t automatic and must be selected. The young employee’s response? A dismissive, “I shouldn’t say anything. Just read the form.” When I pointed out that this attitude was unworthy of a five-star establishment, he called his manager, who stormed in, shouting at my wife: “How old are you? Are you 18? You insult me—get out and never come back!” My wife, in tears, and I immediately went to reception to report the incident. The receptionist’s response? “Sorry, but I can’t do anything—he’s married to one of the owners.” After spending over €6,000 for a short birthday holiday, we left feeling humiliated and disregarded. At checkout the next day, no one from management had even been informed of the incident. The message was clear: at Das Seekarhaus, guests are nothing more than cash cows.

The hotel is located in a prime spot in Obertauern. Truly a ski-in/ski-out hotel. Every detail in the hotel has been carefully thought out. Exceptionally clean rooms (the complete hotel was very clean), incredible hospitality from the entire staff, and the dinner was a culinary delight every evening. We had an amazing time in the Seekarhaus and ofcourse on the white slopes of Obertauern.

Everything in the hotel was perfect!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Food is delicious (for adults and kids)!!!!!!! The infrastructure (with pool, sauna, ski rentals/shop) is awesome. The employees are always ready to help you. Excellent snow as well!!

Everything was awsome, wellness and all the meal was realy great. We stay here only for two night, because we did not have enough time. If we would come again, we definitely stay here longer. Wheather condition was also good, so our sty here was perfect.
