Club La Costa Alpine Centre strongly recommends hiring a car as we are located just outside the city centre; therefore it will be more comfortable having your own transport.
Please be advised that there are no cars to rent directly at the resort. You will find the car hire company “Europcar” at Salzburg airport and in Zell am See (15 min drive from the resort). To check prices, please visit the following website: www.europcar.com

Unfortunately pets are not allowed in any of the Club La Costa World Resorts & Hotels, including Alpine Centre.
