Sölden Reviews & Ratings

Solden has something for everyone and has a vast area including the Gurgls on the wider pass. Long wide runs and high altitude mean great conditions. It is more expensive than other Austrian resorts for drinks etc. Bars and restaurants were excellent

Great resort with plenty for all abilities. Very efficient lift system to get up the mountain quickly. 007 Elements well worth a visit for any James Bond fan and be sure to go up into the Elements bar afterwards for the views and a martini - shaken not stirred!
Huge range of slopes for everyone, beginner slopes can get busy at peak with corresponding lift queues but these move quickly and dont spoil anyones day.

Its a very good place i recommend to many people who do not know how to ski or snowboard as i learning in one of the best resorts or decently good resorts you can learn how to ski in a single day like i did.

The food was decent too, got to meet new people too, whom i partied with when there was a snow storm. Local town is also great as well

The snow quality and guarantee to ski due to the its height is exceptional. The ease of the lift system is superb. The access to the slopes from the village is very accessible from the excellent range of accommodation to fit most budgets.
Its a hidden gem!

Having both summer and winter vacationed in Soelden I can say its one of my favourite places in the alps. Amazing lift system, great restaurants and apres ski, lots to do off the slopes including the excellent 007 museum. People are friendly, its easy to get to and theres great hotels and apartments. Off piste is excellent. In summer it has great road and mountain biking plus hiking and loads more.

Huge area with lots of choices of slopes, easy to get around, lots of space, friendly town and nice swimming pool to relax in at the end of the day!

A fantastic resort with everything you want out of a winter destination. There is plenty of slopes for all levels and a very efficient lift system.

Great resort! I went with a group of friends, all of us on different ski and snowboarding levels and we all enjoyed trying different slopes through the weekend. The glacier views and pistes are stunning, and it wasnt crowded at all in mid December. Great apres-ski options, and very close to Aqua Dome for a relaxing soak.

Fantastic infrastructure, great lift system.
Great links across the 2 glaciers.
Skiied too hard on a couple of days to use the runs into town.

First time in nearly 40 years of skiing that we lost a morning due to TOO MUCH SNOW!

Cant wait to return and ski and party

Great fun for a weekend, decent range of terrain, fast lifts and lively apres. Possibly a bit seedy if you come with kids, and steep runs back into resort for less confident skiers.

Sölden has pretty much everything most people will want from a holiday and I don't know why more Brits like me haven't discovered the resort. There is plenty of night life and great high altitude skiing and lower runs between the trees. Also the lift pass covers Obergurgl so you can enjoy more high altitude skiing or even Hoch Oetz so the is more tree lined skiing for cloudy days. In resort it lack the charm but there is a big high street with many different types of bars, many with live music.

Apres and family friendly resort. Excellent connectivity via the two main bubbles going up to the two glaciers. Very snow sure, first week of December has been ace. Plenty of runs for a few days, and few bus to Ober Gurgl to mix the experience up- only 20 minutes by bus.
Great connectivity to Innsbruck and Munich.

Really good wide slopes, the last run down to town is incredibly busy, lots of good places to eat up the mountain

Sölden is great for casual skiing they have everything you need for a casual ski trip with friends and family I go there every October.

Great resort and very snow sure giving lots of early and late season opportunities.

Lots of variety of terrain and great atmosphere.

Solden is a high level resort with glacier skiing. It has wide slopes that help develop confidence in novice skiers.
The glacier provides wonderful views and great skiing. It can be slow to get there in busy weeks as the majority of users want to visit. My recommendation is to head over around 1100 ski flat out and return at 1330. There is abundant skiing to enjoy away from the glaciers.
The James Bond centre is well worth a visit. Youll want to watch a Bond movie that night.
Hit the bars straight off the mountain and feel the buzz.
Accommodation out of Solden can be cheaper.

Fab high altitude intermediates resort with slopes well kept and linked. Addition of lift pass linked to Obergurl Hochgurgl and easy bus ride for lovely cruisey pistes. Great variety of apres ski from rocking bars, cosy stubls, ritzy hotels and everything in between. Good mountain restaurants at reasonable prices and brilliant hotels for all budgets. And all within an hour of Innsbruck airport.

Within easy reach of Innsbruck airport, Solden is a fantastic option for all your skiing fix. A fantastic choice of accommodation our favourite is the Casa company and in particular Casa Juwell which is close to ski in ski out.

Solden is not the prettiest resort but as we stayed above the village and was there purely to ski it didnt affect us.

Loved jumping onto the skis and skiing down to the main gondola, a great way to start. However the last part down to the gondola gets cut up very quickly so we tend to use it twice early in the morning then venture further afield, just glad we didnt have to use as the last run. Solden has enough for everyone, some fantastic cruising blues, challenging reds and of course the World Cup Rettenbach piste. The lifts are brilliant and we hardly had to queue at all. Easy to find your way around. Loved the piste side bars and restaurant especially Bubis. No trip would be complete without a trip to the Ice Q and the 007 experience. If you really want to push the boat out we can highly recommend the summit dinner at the IceQ. Absolutely amazing food and wine with stunning views.

Made famous by James Bond solden now has additional spots on offer on the mountain. It is well worth trying to ski the big 3 ( 3 peaks over 3,000 meters) one of these is the Ice Q used as a key element in bond. Skiing from here down to the village you ski passed the glacier road where the car airplane chase was filmed. You really feel like you are on a film set.
It is also worth venturing onto the rettenbach glacier where every October the opening FIS wold cup races are held!

Having never skied before I was impressed with the variety in the blue runs.
Completing the valley run was a highlight of the week!

Unfortunately the weather was windy for half the week with the lifts being closed it caused the lower slopes to be very busy.
