The DIPS&DROPS hotel (that feels like a mini-resort), Austria

Okay, you might not know this hotel yet, but it's sure to be high on your "I want to go" list: DIPS&DROPS. A hotel (a mini-resort, actually) where you can do absolutely everything: skiing, mountain biking, yoga, swimming, visiting the sauna, ice bathing…And so on. The hotel is located in the middle of Amadé ski area in Austria, where you will find no less than 760 kilometers of slopes. The concept is perfect from A to Z: a Bike & Ski Hub Where sports and wellness converge, without the fuss. The rooms are bright, modern, and comfortable, and through the large windows, they offer stunning views of the snow-capped (or sometimes green) mountain peaks.

Spa and sports

Spa and sports

Back to sauna visits and swimming, because after an active day, a dip in the spa at DIPS&DROPS really makes you feel reborn. Think: several (yes... several!) saunas, an indoor pool, a heated (thankfully) outdoor pool with a wonderful viewAnd for the daredevils: ice baths in the river behind the hotel. Cold? Yes. Wonderful? If you're into that... Also yes.

If you didn't get around to more active pursuits because the spa actually sounded better than the cold slopes, you can also hit the gym in the evening. DIPS&DROPS has a cool and trendy gym that, as the hotel staff themselves say, makes us in Amsterdam jealous.

Just as important (if not more so) as the spa and exercise is, of course, delicious food. Luckily, you don't have to leave the hotel for a meal, because the people at DIPS&DROPS have thought of something for that too. There's a cozy bistro for lunch or a quick bite, a pasta bar, a steakhouse for when you're craving comfort food after an active day outdoors, and more. End your day with a drink at the hotel bar (après-ski vibes included).
