AmThumersbach

AmThumersbach is a self-catered chalet in Zell am See, sleeping 11 in 4 bedrooms. It has a sauna. Small things, but they are what a group remembers. Beds: 3 singles, 3 doubles and 1 bunk.

Zell am See scores 16 out of 100 on our Christmas Snow Score, with the village at 757m. That makes it more weather-dependent than most in late December, which is worth weighing before you book.

Sleeping 11, it suits a large family Christmas or two families travelling together. It lists family facilities such as a high chair or family rooms, which is the detail that decides it for anyone travelling with small children. It is self-catered, so you cook — including on the 25th. That suits groups who want to eat on their own schedule.

It is not ski-to-door, so factor in getting to the lifts each morning. Resort supermarkets keep short and unpredictable hours over Christmas and many close entirely on the 25th. Order ahead or shop on arrival. Pets are not allowed. Check the bed layout and what is included (linen, towels, final cleaning) on Booking.com before you book — Christmas week is often sold as a fixed seven nights.
