ARD TV visits Sporthütte Fiegl
How do Sölden and the Ötztal fare when German television arrives for the big "Holiday Check"? For the ARD travel format My Holiday Check, reporter Johannes Zenglein conducted the test and also scrutinized our team at the Sporthütte Fiegl. Spoiler: Our service and the depot system were real highlights for the travel professional.
Sölden is known for its top slopes, the BIG 3 platforms, the James Bond set at Gaislachkogl, and – as we now officially know – for first-class ski service directly at the Gaislachkogl cable car valley station. In the ARD TV show “Holiday Check: Winter Vacation in Tyrol” the host wants to find out how comfortable and smooth a ski holiday in Sölden and Ötztal really is. His first stop took him directly to us at Sporthütte Fiegl.
Professional Equipment & Honest Advice
Immediately after arrival, we went to our ski rental. Our staff member Mychel welcomed Johannes to set up the perfect equipment for his ski days. Whether a beginner or a piste pro: the television feature by ARD showed how important the right choice of equipment is.
Johannes was able to choose from our various categories and rely on the professional expertise of our team. Especially for guests like him who keep an eye on the budget, the transparent pricing and the possibility of online pre-booking with a discount are a decisive advantage.
Comfort Check: Free Hands to the Ski Bus
A major focus of the broadcast was on the logistics on site. Since Johannes stayed in Längenfeld rather than directly in Sölden, our Deluxe Ski Depot directly at the Gaislachkoglbahn was the decisive factor for a relaxed evening.
Instead of lugging heavy gear and bulky skis to the bus stop and later to the holiday apartment, everything was safely and dryly stored with us. The ARD man clearly enjoyed the comfort of ending the ski day with free hands. Without the heavy equipment, he could board the ski bus completely carefree and enjoy the ride. Especially for guests who do not live directly on the slopes, our depot transforms the way to and from the accommodation into a relaxed walk.
State-of-the-art technology for maximum comfort
The operation of our depot is quite simple: The ski pass is also the digital key to the locker. No searching, no extra key, just hold the ski pass to the scanner and the equipment is stored. The next morning, the pre-warmed shoes are already waiting for the first use.
We are very pleased that we passed the ARD „Vacation Check" so positively. It confirms our claim to combine experience with the most modern service.
