Chalet-Hotel Christina
The Christina is our own chalet-hotel in Saalbach village. It has a great central location, a light and airy feel and has recently been renovated to the usual Ski Miquel standard.
It has a large, open lounge with comfy sofas, a separate dining room, and the cheapest bar in town! It also has its own ski storage room, and many of the bedrooms also have balconies.
Accommodation in Saalbach is notoriously expensive, yet the Christina offers excellent value-for-money along with the wonderful chalet-hotel atmosphere that a Ski Miquel holiday is famous for.
Why not try Bad Gastein?
Saalbach is nearly full, so also consider Bad Gastein
- 200km of skiing
- Beautiful village with some of the finest valley views in the Austrian Alps
- Hospitality to match Saalbach, but with more challenging skiing, Bad Gastein is only an hour from Saalbach
- Natural spa town with famous thermal baths
- Contact us to discuss alternative holiday options

Reviews
Great to return to the Christina again in Feb 20. Well looked after by Carol and the team, both in the chalet and whilst guiding on the mountain. This chalet is well run, clean, well located and with great food and service. Particularly enjoyed the company of a fantastic group of fellow guests. Hope to return soon.
This was my first Ski Miquel chalet ski holiday and it was just wonderful. Carol is a very professional, kind and helpful manager as well as a considerate ski guide. Together with her team they provide an excellent service. The food was wonderful, the staff couldn't do enough for you, the place was comfortable and warm, the walking distance to the centre and main lift only a few minutes. We had Lewis as our ski guide and that really made our week. He was just excellent. The ski area is beautiful and large, so having someone capable, caring and professional guiding you and explaining how to best ski the slopes made such a difference. Lunch was always pre-booked and we had so many laughs and fun throughout. The dinner with tobogganing back down was a great night out - all in all it really was a fabulous week and highly recommendable.
Stayed at the Christina for a week in March. Excellent Chalet, very good food and a short walk to the main lifts out of Saalbach. Saalbach is a top resort for skiing, a huge area, good piste grooming, fast, efficient lifts and lots of good bars and restaurants on the mountain. Will be going back.
This was our second time with Ski Miquel and yet again this excellent formula managed to tick all our boxes. The Chalet was clean and comfortable; food was excellent and although there was a set menu the Staff were prepared to flex it for some of our party, who didn't like fish. Ski guiding was a must for us, as the Saalbach area is very extensive, and this allowed us to enjoy it without the need to constantly look at a map. Some great nights in the chalet with an excellent crowd and cheap bar, doing quizzes, musical charades and the nightly awards from Liam. Thanks to Carol, Harvey, Lucy, Rachel and Milan.
