About Sporthotel Kirchler
- Johann Kirchler bought the thermal springs and the estate of today's Badhotel Kirchler in 1847, farther up toward Hintertux. The sporthotel on the square in Lanersbach is a different door.
- Superior doubles of the first type add a fruit basket, a tea station, and a bathtub. Every room on the hotel's list has its own balcony.
- Armin's wife Klaudia works the desk and the dining room with the rest of the family, the way a small Tux house still staffs a busy glacier week.
