Best Sölden Hotels with a Pool or Hot Tub
A pool is one of the best ways to end a ski day in Sölden, and the choice here is wider than in most Tyrolean resorts. The hotels on this page range from rooftop infinity pools in the village to indoor pools on the slopes at Hochsölden. Sportlers Lodge, which opened in November 2023, has a 155 m² indoor and outdoor pool on its roof, and Hotel Schöne Aussicht pairs an infinity outdoor pool with a hot tub right next to the runs. Others, such as AlpenParks THE SECRET, sit steps from the Gaislachkogel cable car, so you can swim and still be on the first gondola in the morning.
Sölden is the largest resort in Tyrol's Ötztal, a long village along the Ötztaler Ache below the Rettenbach and Tiefenbach glaciers. Its lifts reach three summits above 3,000 metres, and the main cable cars, the Gaislachkogelbahn and the Giggijochbahn, start right in the village. The main street is busy with après-ski bars in winter, while Hochsölden, a cluster of hotels higher on the slopes, offers a calmer base where you ski from the door.
Where to stay
Rooftop pools, hot tubs and slope views
Sölden's long days at altitude, on runs that climb above 3,000 metres, leave legs tired by four o'clock, and warm water is the quickest fix. What separates the hotels below is where the pool sits: on a rooftop with a view down the Ötztal, outside in the snow, or indoors with a panorama window. Location matters too, because some are next to the lifts in the village and others are up at Hochsölden. All of them have guest ratings of 9 or more, and several add saunas and steam rooms to the pool.
The two biggest rooftop pools are in the village. Sportlers Lodge Sölden, a four-star lifestyle hotel that opened in November 2023, has a three-storey wellness area topped by a 155 m² Infinity Sky pool that runs indoors and outdoors, plus a large rooftop sun terrace, a private spa option and a 400 m² gym. The Bergland Design- und Wellnesshotel answers with a 2,200 m² rooftop spa and an outdoor pool, right next to the Zentrum-Shuttle cable car. Both are rated above 9, Sportlers Lodge by more than a thousand guests. A rooftop pool here means swimming above the village with the Ötztal peaks around you, which feels very different from a basement pool.
For a hot tub with a view of the runs, Hotel Schöne Aussicht at Hochsölden is the clearest choice. It is an adults-only, four-star superior hotel set right next to the ski slopes, with an infinity outdoor pool, a hot tub, saunas and a Skybar with panoramic views. Nearby, Hotel Enzian Hochsölden Superior has a 1,500 m² spa with indoor and outdoor pools and an infrared cabin, and Hotel Edelweiss Hochsölden Superior has a panoramic indoor pool, a ski school and a children's playroom. Staying up here, you ski back to the hotel in the afternoon and walk straight from the ski room to the water, without a bus or a drive.
Families and groups have good options lower down. Die Berge Lifestyle-Hotel, the most reviewed hotel on this page with 1,105 guest ratings averaging 9.2, has family rooms with balconies, a pool with a view, a sauna and a fitness centre. AlpenParks THE SECRET offers apartments with kitchenettes and balconies, an indoor and outdoor pool and saunas, just steps from the Gaislachkogel cable car, which suits families who want to cook some meals themselves. Hotel Elisabeth Superior has an indoor pool, saunas and slopeside access to the Gaislachkogl cable car, a short bus ride from the centre of Sölden. All three let children swim after ski school without leaving the hotel.
At the top end, Das Central is the five-star choice in Sölden, with mountain or river view rooms, a hot spring bath, rooftop and indoor pools, a sauna, a fitness centre and a traditional restaurant serving Austrian cuisine. It suits a week where the spa matters as much as the skiing, or a group with non-skiers who will spend part of the day in the water. My advice for any of these hotels: check the pool opening hours, since the busiest time is straight after the lifts close, and an evening swim around seven is often quieter. If an outdoor pool or hot tub is the point of the trip, confirm it is open in winter.
A traveler's perspectiveIf a pool is my priority in Sölden, I would book Sportlers Lodge for its 155 m² Infinity Sky pool on the roof, which runs from indoors to outdoors, opened in November 2023 and has more than a thousand reviews averaging 9.2. For a hot tub next to the slopes, I would choose Hotel Schöne Aussicht at Hochsölden, an adults-only hotel with an infinity outdoor pool and a Skybar.
Pool & jacuzziApart Madeleine Superior inklusive Summercard
Family apartments with ski storage, cross-country access, and ski bus
Why guests love itApart Madeleine Superior was a great base for our family: a renovated apartment with a fully equipped kitchen and a balcony, so we could cook and relax at our own pace. The free ski bus stops just 50 metres away and runs to the Giggijochbahn, which made mornings easy. The heated ski storage kept boots warm overnight, and on a rest day we tried the cross-country trail right outside the door.
Pool & jacuzziHotel Schöne Aussicht
Ski-in/ski-out, adult-only, spa and panoramic views
Why guests love itWe left the kids with their grandparents and booked Hotel Schöne Aussicht, which is adults-only and sits right beside the ski runs in Hochsölden. Ski-in, ski-out made every day effortless. The infinity outdoor pool and hot tub with the Ötztal peaks all around were unforgettable for us, and the saunas were perfect after long runs. Evenings started in the Skybar and ended at the show-cooking restaurant.
Pool & jacuzziRoyal Appartements Sölden
Slope-side apartments with spa, mountain views, and ski storage
Why guests love itNext to the ski slope above Sölden, Royal Appartements lets families start the day on skis close to the building. I would choose it for the space: the apartments are large, with balconies and mountain views. The ski storage room has a boot dryer, so children start each morning in dry boots, and free underground parking helps with luggage. Parents can use the sauna and steam bath once the skiing is done.
Pool & jacuzziHotel Edelweiss Hochsölden Superior
Ski-in/ski-out, spa, panoramic pool, and family-friendly dining
Why guests love itHotel Edelweiss in Hochsölden was built for families like ours: ski-in, ski-out onto the slopes, a ski school close by and a children's playroom for the end of the day. It is family-run and genuinely welcoming. Our mountain-view room was comfortable, and half-board meant no evening scramble for restaurants. The panoramic indoor pool was the kids' highlight, while we enjoyed the spa after skiing.
Pool & jacuzziDas Central – Alpine . Luxury . Life
Five-star Sölden hotel behind the ice Q summit restaurant, with a 2,000 m² rooftop spa and a private ski shuttle
Why guests love itDas Central's saunas and steam baths, rooftop infinity pool and Ötztaler Stube set an adult tone, and that is the first thing a family should weigh. Sölden itself has around 144 km of slopes and 31 lifts between 1,350 m and 3,340 m, which suits teenagers and parents who ski well more than small children who are still learning. The hotel's own website mentions no kids club, and it has no position at the foot of a nursery slope: children ride the private shuttle like everyone else. Guests score the hotel 9.3 out of 10 across 63 reviews. With young beginners, I would choose a hotel nearer a ski school meeting point.
Pool & jacuzzidie berge lifestyle-hotel Sölden
Mountain views, family rooms, and a spa with a pool
Why guests love itFamily rooms at die berge lifestyle-hotel Sölden have balconies and mountain views, which is what I would book for a family that needs space. The swimming pool with a view is where children will spend the late afternoon, while parents can use the sauna, spa and fitness centre. The family-friendly restaurant serves diverse cuisines, a help when tastes differ, and ski storage keeps equipment out of the room.
Pool & jacuzziHotel Enzian Hochsölden Superior
Ski-in/ski-out, expansive spa, and panoramic mountain dining
Why guests love itHotel Enzian Hochsölden Superior sits at 2,090 metres in Hochsölden with ski-in/ski-out access, so children step onto the slopes from the hotel. The 1,500 m² spa has indoor and outdoor pools, saunas and an infrared cabin. Rooms are spacious with mountain views, and half-board includes breakfast, an afternoon snack and dinner, which I find useful with hungry skiers. An underground car park is available.
Pool & jacuzziAlpengasthof Grüner
Slopeside calm, spa relaxation, and mountain views
Why guests love itAlpengasthof Grüner sits high above Sölden in a quiet, slopeside location, and a ski school is right outside, which I find ideal for children starting lessons. A free shuttle to Sölden stops 100 metres away for evenings in the village. Rooms have mountain views, parents can use the spa area, and free underground parking helps when arriving with luggage. 340 reviews average 9.2.
Pool & jacuzziHotel Elisabeth Superior Sölden
Slopeside hotel with spa, pool, and mountain views
Why guests love itHotel Elisabeth Superior gave us slopeside access to the Gaislachkogl cable car, so mornings with the kids were quick and calm. Our mountain-view room was comfortable, and the fireplace in the lounge made evenings feel cosy. The indoor pool and saunas were where we ended every ski day. Dinner in the restaurant was traditional and filling, and if you want the village, Sölden's centre is a short bus ride away.
Pool & jacuzziSportlers Lodge Sölden lifestyle-lässig-anders
Rooftop infinity pool, extensive wellness, and a lively bar
Why guests love itSportlers Lodge has a relaxed lifestyle vibe that our teenagers loved from the first evening. The rooftop Infinity Sky pool, 155 m² and running indoors and out, was the highlight, with views over Sölden. The three-storey wellness area had saunas and quiet relaxation rooms, and we even booked the private spa one night. The 400 m² gym kept the keen ones busy, and the living room with bar and games was our evening hangout.
Pool & jacuzziBergland Design- und Wellnesshotel
Rooftop spa, outdoor pool, and direct cable car access
Why guests love itBergland Design- und Wellnesshotel sits right next to the Zentrum-Shuttle Cable Car in Sölden, so families reach the slopes quickly. Its 2,200 m² rooftop spa with an outdoor pool is the main draw after skiing. Rooms combine modern design with natural materials and have a balcony, minibar and satellite TV. Half-board is available, which I would take to keep dinners simple, and ski storage is on site.
Pool & jacuzziAlpenParks THE SECRET Sölden
Apartments with kitchens, spa, and steps from the cable car
Why guests love itAlpenParks THE SECRET is just steps from the Gaislachkogel cable car, so we were up the mountain early without dragging tired kids through the village. Our apartment had a kitchenette and a balcony, ideal for quick breakfasts and airing out ski gear. The indoor/outdoor pool was the children's favourite, and we escaped to the saunas and steam bath. It felt like the best of apartment freedom with real wellness.
