My wife & I arrived in Munich Airport on Sat Dec 1st 2012.
Hired a car and drove 2h 45 minutes to Ischgl.
We booked into hotel Alpina, Junior suite, E88.00 per person per night - half board.
Super Room, super clean, super staff, super location, super Ski room.
As part of half board; the evening meal options were very limited.
That said, We would definitely stay in hotel Alpina again.

The apres ski in 'the Schatsi bar' (part of hotel Elizebeth)at the bottom of the slopes was thoroughly enjoyable.

Our best find/discovery was the bar/resturant on the top floor of the Silveretta/Fernau gondola station in the Idalp base.
Most days we had Tomato Soup, Apple Strudle with Vanilla sauce, followed with Irish Coffee. A relaxing read of a good book, while sitting at the bar counter, good down time!!!

The ski conditions were very good, we really had a good time. We skied mainly around the Idalp base and made a number of trips over into Switzerland. The Wednesday we left the resort there were major snow dumps, no doubt further enhansing the skiing.

My wife and I look forward to returning to Ischgl in
the future!

Thanks for the feedback. I have just booked up for Ischgl for January. Very much looking forward to it. Good to hear you had good skiing so early in the season. This season is certainly off to a good start snow wise.

No. It was off to a good start but wheels are currently falling off. Up to 10 degrees on Christmas day at town level and no snow is crap.

Ahh no. Not good. I have just received the latest forecast from this lot who show a fair bit of snow due the next few days so I hope you get some. Fingers crossed for ya.

I shouldn't worry too much - snowforecast.com is showing a pretty wet and miserable Saturday night and Sunday but then the temperatures go back down.
This bit of a warm 36 hours seems to be wandering across the Alps in general - 40mm+ of rain forecast for Tignes Les Brevieres (1550m) over the weekend as well.
But don't tell Icy - I want him to think that it is only Morzine that is getting rained on.
