Frequently asked questions

How much does a budget hotel in Obertauern cost?
Budget hotel prices in Obertauern vary, but you can find a great deal on Expedia. To find the cheapest budget hotels, be flexible with your dates—typically, off-peak and mid-week stays are cheaper. Stretch your budget further by looking for hotels with free breakfast, free parking or free airport shuttles. Sort your search results by "Price: low to high" to see our lowest rates.
Which area of Obertauern is best to stay in for cheap hotels?
For budget-conscious solo travellers seeking affordable accommodation in Obertauern, focusing on properties slightly outside the immediate village centre can often yield better value. While Obertauern is a compact ski resort, options further down the main road, particularly towards the less central ends of the resort, tend to offer more competitive pricing.

For instance, looking at hotels or guesthouses on the outskirts, such as those just beyond the main lift areas or a short walk from the most central spots, can often save you a bit. These locations still provide easy access to the slopes and amenities, usually via a quick walk or the convenient local ski bus service, which is generally included with your ski pass.
When is the most affordable time to visit Obertauern?
The most affordable time to visit Obertauern for budget-conscious travellers is typically outside the peak winter season, specifically during the shoulder seasons of late autumn (November) and late spring (April/early May). During these times, the demand for accommodation and other services is lower, leading to more competitive pricing.

For solo travellers, visiting in November or late April can mean significant savings on lodging, with many hotels and guesthouses offering reduced rates before the main ski season kicks off or after it winds down. While the full range of winter activities might not be available, you can still enjoy crisp mountain air and beautiful scenery, often with fewer crowds. Some early-season skiing might be possible in November depending on snowfall, and late spring offers opportunities for hiking and enjoying the nascent alpine flora.

While Obertauern is primarily known as a winter sports destination, those looking for budget-friendly options should avoid the high season from mid-December to March. Prices for everything from lift passes to dining are at their highest during these months.
Is Obertauern a budget-friendly destination?
While Obertauern is generally considered a premium ski resort, travellers can absolutely experience its stunning alpine beauty on a budget with some smart planning.

For accommodation, consider staying in nearby villages just outside the main ski area, such as Untertauern or Tweng. These locations often offer more affordable guesthouses and apartments, and are usually connected to Obertauern by a short bus ride or car journey. Solo travellers might find better value in shared accommodation or smaller, family-run pensions.

Couples can save on food by opting for self-catering accommodation and preparing some meals, especially breakfasts and packed lunches for the slopes. Many of the most breathtaking views are free to enjoy, and walking or snowshoeing trails offer a wonderful way to experience the winter wonderland without spending on lift passes every day.

What free activities should we do in Obertauern?

Many of the best experiences in Obertauern are entirely free and revolve around its stunning alpine scenery. Solo travellers can embark on numerous well-marked hiking trails that crisscross the mountains, offering breathtaking panoramic views and a chance to immerse themselves in nature. Paths like the one leading to the Grünwaldsee or around the Seekarsee are particularly picturesque and don't require any cost beyond your own two feet.

For those who enjoy a more relaxed pace, exploring the village itself is a pleasant, free activity. You can wander through the compact centre, admire the traditional Austrian architecture, and simply soak in the peaceful mountain atmosphere.
Is it cheaper to book flights and a hotel in Obertauern as a package?
Booking a hotel and flight package on Expedia can be cheaper than booking flights and hotels separately. Bundling can lead to significant savings, especially for international travel or when booking well in advance. However, savings vary depending on factors like destination, travel dates, and availability, so it's wise to compare options. With access to over 300,000 hotels worldwide, Expedia makes it easy to build the perfect travel package.
Can I cancel my budget hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline. This is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use Expedia's "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right budget hotel in Obertauern for you.
