Berghotel Lavenar

Here you can find the current information about travelling during COVID-19, including destination updates and what to expect this winter.

Berghotel Lavenar

The Berghotel Lavenar enjoys a unique location right next to the piste. From the hotel terrace you can sit back and watch your children making their first turns on the nursery slopes! The hotel is ideally suited for families. The "Sunweb more inclusive” deal provides, besides other benefits, free drinks almost all day (until 22:00) at the hotel and lunch every day. Because of the unique location, the hotel can only be reached by a gondola lift. The last lift leaves daily at 17.00 hours. As a guest you can make free use of the indoor swimming pool and the wellness centre. If you fancy doing something completely different you can use the tobogganing for free. This is great fun for the children, (and some adults!). If you want to have a drink and meet others in the evening you can visit the après-ski bar in the hotel. In short, you will find everything here for an unforgettable holiday in the making!
