Tripplo’s hotel summary
Tripplo’s analysis · Updated 20 October 2026 · How we review hotels
Hotel Schwarzer Adler suits guests who want a full-service family hotel in the middle of St. Anton. It stands in the pedestrian zone, about six minutes' walk from the Galzigbahn, where a free ski depot waits, and its spa, with an indoor pool, an outdoor pool facing the mountains and a large sauna area, is what guests talk about most. Dinners, live music in the bar and a play area for children make it easy to spend the evenings in the house. The central address has its downsides. The main street can be noisy, and a few rooms feel dated or compact compared with the spa and public areas. Breakfast, praised by many, disappointed a few. Families and couples who want a pool, good food and the village on the doorstep will be well looked after; guests who want modern design or total quiet should look at smaller, newer houses.
Guests score it 9.1 out of 10 — the average across the 8 hotels we list in St. Anton am Arlberg is 9.2.
- Guests praise the location in the middle of the village. The Galzigbahn is about six minutes on foot, and the free ski depot at the valley station saves carrying skis through the village.
- The Adler Spa is the most praised part of a stay: an indoor pool with a waterfall, an outdoor pool looking at the mountains and a large sauna area. Many guests call it the highlight after skiing or hiking.
- Most guests are happy with their rooms, but a few found theirs in need of an update or not very spacious, and some would have liked a fridge or a choice of pillows.
- Many guests praise the breakfast buffet, while a few found it underwhelming, missing fresh juice for example.
