Hilton Honors and Small Luxury Hotels of the World (SLH) have a partnership, whereby members can redeem points at hundreds of boutique properties. Hilton Honors has just added its latest batch of SLH hotels, and reader Jeremy in Kaiserslautern brought one to my attention, which I think is worth highlighting.
Specifically, I’m talking about Eriro. It looks like heaven on earth, and it’s an amazing value on points, given the cash rates here, plus the fact that it seems to be all-inclusive.

Basics of Eriro Alpine Hide in Ehrwald, Austria
If you’re like me and love beautiful scenery, there aren’t many places in the world that are more magical than the Alps, regardless of the time of year. Along those lines, Eriro is a boutique property that recently opened in Ehrwald, Austria (it’s roughly a two-hour drive from Munich, and even closer to Innsbruck).
The nine-room property is located in the Alps, at an elevation of around 1,550 meters, with views of the Zugspitze. Rates at the property are all-inclusive, which is to say that they include breakfast, lunch, dinner, drinks (with select premium spirits being excluded), and all kinds of activities. You can find everything included on this page.
Seriously, how stunning does this look?!
This property is now at the very top of the list of hotels I want to visit. This looks like such a gorgeous, boutique property. Let me add the disclaimer that I don’t know anyone who has stayed here and have no connection to this property, so I’m just going based on what I’ve seen online.
How to book this SLH property with Hilton points
Thanks to the collaboration between Hilton Honors and Small Luxury Hotels of the World, it’s possible to redeem points (or free night awards) for stays here. It seems like the rate is currently 150,000 Hilton Honors points per night, and availability is wide open.
A few things to note:
- There is a two-night minimum stay
- Currently I see availability through December 21, 2025, and not for ski season (yet)
- Children under the age of 14 aren’t allowed at the property
- It seems that stays must be canceled at least 30 days in advance, but of course check the conditions for the dates that you book
For what it’s worth, cash rates at this property are consistently over €1,500 per night. So redeeming points here is an incredible value. I value Hilton Honors points at 0.5 cents each, so it’s the equivalent of paying $750 per night. If you do choose to stay five nights, there’s also a fifth night free for elite members when booking with points.
Bottom line
Eriro looks like a gorgeous SLH property that can be booked for 150,000 Hilton Honors points per night. Not only does this look like an incredible luxury hotel, but it’s also all-inclusive, so you can’t beat the value. I absolutely plan on checking this property out, and I imagine I’m not alone in being interested.
Anyone else planning a stay at Eriro?
40% deposit is required at time of booking and it is refundable according to the rate cancellation policy. Cancellations fees: no penalty up to 3PM (local) - 30 days prior to arrival; cancel 30 to 21 days prior - 40% of total stay; 20 to 8 days prior - 70% of total stay; after 7 days prior to arrival - 90% of total stay.
Like a less good Forestis?
Thank you Jeremy from K Town.
I wonder what late October is like there.
Points, mixed weather possible, could be cool, wet or very pleasant.
You should fly to Innsbruck, they have a very special and beautiful approach through the mountains that requires extra training.
Ben, I know this area very well. For your information it is very remote and on the Austrian (south) side of the Zugspitze.
I would recommend the German side of the mountain, the likes of Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Füssen, Oberammergau, etc, however, that would probably mean spending cash not points.
@ AeroB13a -- I'm curious, any other hotels in the region, or on the German side, that you'd pair this with?
Now you are asking something serious …. What would be the purpose of your trip?
Winter or summer?
Static to rest or mobile to sightsee?
I really would need more information to be of any assistance to you.
Probably you would choose Munich as your arrival airport perhaps?
Lots of options and therefore questions I’m afraid.
Afterthought, would you prefer to email me Ben?
