High.Pleasure.Pure. Interalpen-Hotel Tyrol characterizes itself with these three words . And more than rightly so, as I discovered during my short vacation.
The three words simply sum up wonderfully what the hotel stands for and what awaits you there. Every single word applies to so many things in and around the 5-star superior luxury hotel located at 1,300 meters above sea level. Because the HOCH is not just limited to the location, the PLEASURE is not just to the culinary experiences and the PUR is to the straightforwardness, the focus on the essentials. I would be more than happy to take you up to the "Interalpen" with my travel report and tell you how my daughter and I experienced our short visit to the hotel.
What could be nicer for a TennisTraveller than going to a tennis hotel in the mountains to relax after an association game in the sweltering heat? Actually very little - at least that's the opinion of my daughter and me.
From Stuttgart it went quite quickly over the Fern Pass to Telfs and along a winding panoramic road up to the Seefeld high plateau. When you arrive at the 5-star superior hotel, you don't drive to the front of the hotel like in most hotels. No, the Interalpen-Hotel Tyrol was built in a very progressive way by the entrepreneur Hans Liebherr: you drive your car directly into the parking garage, hand in the key, the car is parked and out of sight of all hotel guests.
The elevator then takes you to the incredibly spacious lobby and reception. We are greeted very friendly and given the room card for our deluxe double room on the fourth floor.
A “room” of almost 70 m 2 , or rather a small apartment with a combined living room and bedroom, a dressing room and a spacious bathroom. But our gaze is immediately drawn to the outside - no wonder because the room has floor-to-ceiling panoramic windows across the entire width of the room and shows us the wonderful view of the local mountain, the Hohe Munde. As I found out from the hotel tour the next day, all the rooms and suites in the hotel have this fantastic panoramic view thanks to the sophisticated design.
After a long day of tennis, we went straight to dinner after a quick refreshment. Despite the size of the hotel, the restaurant is cleverly divided into different rooms and a winter garden, so that we were able to sit very quietly and to ourselves. Looking at the menu put a big smile on the lips of my daughter, who is a vegetarian. There were various vegetarian options for the 6-course menu, which - I can tell you this much - were simply wonderfully presented and tasted excellent. We were guided through the menu with warm and highly professional service and were completely impressed by the sophistication of the individual dishes.
We were able to start the next day with breakfast on the sunny south-facing terrace in the best weather. Yes, what can you say: the breakfast buffet is simply a dream and there is simply nothing missing here. Coffee specialties and freshly squeezed orange juice are served directly at the table. There really isn't a better way to start a day of tennis with the fantastic mountain views and a delicious breakfast.
Jessica from the marketing department then showed us around the hotel. Once from bottom to top and back again. So we got to see and hear a lot right at the start of the day.
After the hotel tour, we put on our tennis clothes and headed towards the tennis courts, where the trainer was already waiting for us for the sparring session . The young tennis coach, who LUX Tennis-Private Coaching in the hotel, sparred with both of us, in which we played points after various hitting exercises. Since May 2023, the hotel has been an international partner for tennis lessons 'LUX Tennis - Private Coaching'.
Founded in 2018 by the two former professional tennis players Joan Soler and Tony Rajaobelina, 'LUX Tennis' not only offers various camps and group training sessions, but also private lessons with an individually tailored training program. It's great that there is a strong coach on site - that's certainly not the case everywhere. The hotel has a total of three outdoor courts, two quartz sand courts and one ATP-quality clay court at your disposal. In winter or in bad weather, two indoor courts are waiting for you. By the way, Novak Djokovic trained on this last winter. We trained on the clay court, which is in great condition and offers a wonderful view of the Hohe Munde. In the best tennis weather, we really worked up a sweat and had a lot of fun and good rallies.
After training we went to the Interalpen Spa to relax. The panoramic pool provided the necessary cooling down and in the spa garden we were able to recover from the training sessions on the comfortable loungers with a mountain view. The Tyrolean sauna village is beautifully laid out and offers different infusions every day. I didn't miss it and first enjoyed a honey-salt infusion in the Finnish sauna and then an aloe vera-yoghurt infusion in the steam bath. In between, various drinks, fruit and freshly baked bread were offered. Just lovely!
Satisfied and relaxed, we went to dinner in the evening, which made us smile again. The individual courses were both aesthetically presented and tasteful. No wonder, because the cuisine has received multiple awards. Here you can taste the basic ingredients, which are brilliantly and surprisingly combined with each other. Just great!
After a short walk, we round off a day of tennis vacation that was perfect for us with a cocktail at the fireplace bar. There was even live music from two lively singers.
The next morning, the best weather awaited us again, the gigantic breakfast buffet and a mountain panorama from the south terrace that simply amazed us constantly. The freshly prepared filled crepes with fresh berries were a particularly great treat!
After breakfast I was able to have a hotel talk with Annalisa Simon from the marketing department. This took place in one of the few panoramic suites on the top floor. But just look and hear for yourself what Annalisa tells me about the hotel.
After that, unfortunately, it's time to say goodbye again. We would actually have loved to extend it because the hotel is really very special. After a warm check-out, we went back to the underground car park, where our car and luggage were ready for departure.
We would like to say a big thank you to the lovely Interalpen team! It definitely wasn't the last time we were with you.
Next time we might come in winter and then test the two indoor pitches and the various winter sports options such as cross-country skiing with entry points directly at the hotel. I also imagine this to be a fantastic tennis vacation!
I can warmly recommend the Interalpen-Hotel Tyrol to all of you.
Of course, a break in such a luxury hotel comes at a hefty price. But a tennis holiday at “Interalpen” is an absolute holiday highlight and offers you so many options and amenities away from the tennis court.
For everyone who wants to treat themselves to something very special!
