Hotels and hosts are getting ready for the big kickoff. With three locations in Obertauern, the Valamar brand is present: from urban-trendy to classic to luxurious.

But now Valamar is bringing the relaxed holiday feeling to the snow. With the [PLACES] by Valamar in Obertauern, Croatia's leading hotel provider has finally arrived in the Alps.
