Das Basecamp — Restaurant in Sankt Anton am Arlberg

Ridiculously expensive bar. The bar itself is ok, nothing special, located directly at the base station of the St Anton ski lifts. Everyone knows that certain locations seem to justify higher prices for some people. But this is far from justified. We are not talking about a club in Ibiza. It is just a bar that offers a DJ that plays the same dance music every day and sometimes a guy that plays saxophone. A 500ml bottle of San Pellegrino costs €7,50, a 330ml Coke zero also. It is so strange, when you have a drink and want to pay and the waiter tends to apologize when you look at the bill. I guess it is not easy for the staff as well, as they very likely get less tips, when you already pay almost €24 for an Aperol Spritz and a beer. To my conclusion: don't go there - it's not worth it. Don't...

Not customerfriendly, overpriced and premixed.

Those are the three terrible ingredients to start a bar in a nice place. The Aperol Spritz is 14,50 for only a small bottem of premixed Aperol with a lot of ice. And the answer i’ve got why it’s so less for this price, cause it’s a big glass 🥴 for 14,50 euro at least i expected a fuller glass and not pre-mixed.

In Holland we say better our glass half full than half empty. This glass was not even half empty 🧊

And a bottle of Diet Coke is the same as (sparkling) water 0,33cl for 6,50 euro 😆

Oh and also when i payed they asked for a tip of 5% or 10% and i said that i payed already enought for nothing the answer was; don’t go to this place darling, so kind ☃️

So the conclusion if you want to spend all of you money on nothing this is the right...

Normally this is our usual port of call for apres-ski. As others have said, a bit pricey but a great atmosphere and friendly staff. Yesterday however was disappointing. It was Fasching-Dienstag (aka Mardi gras, Shrove Tuesday) one of the year's great party nights and we were looking forward to starting the party at Base Camp. We left earlier than planned solely because of the music, which was simply boring. The crowd was up to party, the DJ sadly not. I was not even sure he knew it was Fasching! I dare say we'll be back, but the place lost some of its...
