You can hike/skin up from St Christoff to the Galzig... Admittedly the building may not be open, but pack some beer/champagne/whisky/fireworks. I've never been up for New Year, but there's often a few people and a good atmosphere up there on full moon nights. Fun to ski back down Kandahar when it's deserted too.

Would it not be more comfortable to stay IN the hut? Might be a bit draughty perched on the roof.

Rodelhutte, walk up from St Jakob, up the Rodelbahn.
Griabli - brilliant anytime, can get there by taxi if feeling lazy.
Sennhutte - great food and craic.
Bifangalm - take you up te hill in their own tracked van.
You'll need to book, most places stop serving food at about 3pm NY Eve to get ready, and they know how to celebrate!!

schneeflocke, Should be no more than an hour tops really. Get a taxi to the bottom of the piste at St Christoff.
Rodelhutte is also a good shout.
I assume the Moose must be doing something, but it barely counts as being 'up a mountain' (it's a ten minute walk up the piste) - same for Griabli/Taps/Sennhutte IMO. I'm sure they'd be great fun though, depends what you want I guess.

clarky999, 10 minutes up to Senn, Mooswirt and Griabli..........you sure?....... more like 30 to Mooswirt/ Griabli from Galzigbahn bottom station and another 15 to Senn I'd say.

I have a feeling that my namesake , Ulmerhutte, is the only true, on mountain hut open in winter in the Arlberg.

10 mins to the Moose for sure (from Galzig) - I've done it. A little more for the Sennhutte, of course.
Edit: Up the piste, I mean.

You know it makes sense.

clarky999, Cross purposes- I was talking up the road past Kertess to Moos and under the tunnel, yes 10-15 mins up the piste no problem but you'd either be sat all night with wet feet or in ski boots (i would in my apres boots anyway!) which isn't great on NYE.

Otherwise you'll just go on seeing the one name:

Thanks for these! Will try for the Ulmerhuette once their booking for the winter season opens on 1 October and may do one of the other suggestions another evening.

schneeflocke, The Hotel Mondschein in Stuben has a wee hut somewhere above Stuben - don't know where exactly but might be worth getting in touch with them?

None of the places mentioned so far are Mountain huts, they are all commercial restaurants.
The real mountain huts are owned by locals & you also have the summer huts.
The last most famous NYE party on the mountain (KK)ceased a few years ago.
I cannot think why you would want to be up on the hill when it all happens downtown!
