Since 1924, the Hotel Tannbergerhof**** in the heart of Lech am Arlberg has been synonymous with sophisticated Alpine chic, Alpine charm, first-class service and a cosy, welcoming atmosphere.
Our work is our passion: we offer our guests the very best the Alps have to offer. Sport, relaxation and culinary delights ensure an unforgettable holiday at our 4-star hotel, the only 4-star hotel in Lech am Arlberg with ski-in, ski-out access. In summer and autumn, you’ll also be right at the heart of the action here!
The success story of this 4-star hotel in the Arlberg region began with its founder, Martin Jochum (born 1885). On 28 January 1928, Martin Jochum passed the licensing examination for the hospitality and pub trade, thereby laying the foundations for one of the most historic hotels in the exclusive holiday village of Lech.
