THREDBO ALPINE HOTEL

Offering the most convenient access point within all of Thredbo, the Thredbo Alpine Hotel is a rustic log cabin-inspired hotel that sits a short bridge away from the Merritts Gondola and Kosciuszko chairlift.
It’s the beating heart of Thredbo village, right next to the renowned party playground Alpine Bar and its thumping live music events. Plus, it’s only a few footsteps away from the best Thredbo eateries and shops.
Inside, the rooms are tidy and toasty, some positioned with sweeping mountain views, but most importantly the staff are warm, attentive and full of knowledge, making first-time visitors extremely comfortable instantly.
Settle into the Thredbo accommodation’s charming Lounge Bar for snacks, cocktails and board games (check behind the front desk if you can’t spot any) as the heat of its central open-plan fireplace radiates during the colder months. The menu also features a dedicated ‘Martini Cart’ to guide you through your preferred creation — an après-ski must. There’s also onsite parking, 24-hour reception, room service, a self-service laundry, a sauna and ski storage.

It’s the perfect Thredbo accommodation for those who want to enjoy a few days on the piste and a few days off it, or those who have little interest in hitting the ski fields but want to enjoy what the Snowy Mountains has to offer.
Families are particularly well-catered to here. Go wildlife spotting on the resort grounds where you might spy local kangaroos, wallabies, wombats, possums, emus, birds, deer, rabbits or ducks. Take a dip in the heated indoor pool before hitting the sauna, tee off in a 9-hole golf course, dabble in archery, tennis, mountain biking, disc golf, trout fishing or canoeing, or throw in the towel and splurge on the day spa.
