A ski resort's overall star rating displayed here is not calculated based on a simple average but takes several factors, including the age of a review, into account.
Weekend of January 18-19, very well-maintained slopes, wide and with a wide choice of difficulty levels.

We went on a family trip from March 16-23, 2024. We have two boys, ages 6 and 8, who are skiing for the second season. This was their third trip to the Alps (we'd been to Sölden twice before).
The slopes were brilliantly groomed – plenty of steep descents, as well as a fantastic snow park with jumps and an inflatable mattress for soft landings and practice. A great feature was the gondola building with lockers where you could leave your ski equipment – incredibly convenient.
The ski bus was easy to get to, and since we usually arrived before the lifts opened, we caught the fifth or sixth cable car (starting at 8:30). The views were stunning, and the route leading to Switzerland was definitely worth a visit. The double-decker gondola was an added attraction.
Overall, I think this is the best ski resort I've been to so far. We're going there again in a week, December 14-21, 2024 - unfortunately, the snow reports are not the best at the moment :/

Ischgl is worth visiting once, but more for the life and fun after skiing, there are no clubs like it anywhere else

Ischgl is my favorite ski resort because it has everything! Excellent slopes and slope conditions, great mountain huts, good restaurants where you can also enjoy peace and quiet, but also après-ski galore.

Excellent resort for experienced skiers. Exceptional snow quality and a vast, fun ski area. The lifts are modern, some with heated seats. The après-ski scene at the base of the slopes is fantastic, with a lively atmosphere. A resort highly recommended for all skilled and experienced skiers.

Ischgl has something for everyone: perfectly groomed and empty slopes for early birds, but also perfect conditions for late risers. Great mountain huts and excellent restaurants.

We love coming to Ischgl. Great ski resort and unbeatable après-ski.

This is a very modern resort for at least intermediate skiers. We visited in early December 2023, and the slopes were sometimes quite crowded, especially on weekends and holidays. On the other hand, there were no queues for the lifts, which was a plus. As is typical at the beginning of the season, some trails were closed. Overall, it's a very modern resort, certainly among the best in Austria. The VIP ski area at the lower lift station is a particularly nice feature – you didn't have to carry your gear to the hotel. Of course, there were fully heated lockers, even gloves and helmets. The resort is also top-notch in terms of après ski, the overall look, the well-maintained town, and, of course, the prices. I definitely recommend it.

Great ski resort, but the locals in Ischgl are arrogant. We've been going there for 50 years. We've helped finance this whole circus.
Despite the expensive ski pass, they've recently started charging for parking. These arrogant and politically correct Ischgl locals want to educate us and have used that as justification for the parking fees. We'd rather go to Italy or France.
On top of that, the skiing there is getting worse and worse. Drunks in the gondolas and rowdiness. Simply appalling.

I was there from January 6th to 13th, 2024. Someone below me was there too and said it was terrible. It was freezing cold the entire time. If someone says there were moguls, they probably haven't seen real moguls... the trails are perfectly groomed, it's true that most of them are banked, but this isn't a resort for beginners... if you know how to ski, it won't bother you, and in fact, it's more fun. A bad ballet dancer might even be bothered by the hem of her skirt ;p Fresh snow just fell, and the conditions were fantastic. We had fantastic weather with sunshine and frost :D Fantastic date, few people, which is evident both on the slopes and the lifts. I think this resort is great, but for people who know how to ski. If you don't know how to ski, you won't find it there and will struggle and complain. To those who complain, I recommend going to Zielenec or another Szczyrk, standing in line, and skiing moguls on the blue runs.
