Hotel was great, clean, nice breakfast, friendly staff. Hot tub in the snow was beautiful and great location. Pillows were awful and bobbly so if they had better pillows would have given 5 stars.

The hotel in city center was in a great location, modern and clean! The staff at checkin was also fantastic, with great recommendations. Parking in underground lot nearby was very easy.
Only negative was outdoor rooftop jacuzzi was small, we waited for others to leave before there was space. Very cool to be on the rooftop!

Everything was great here. The staff was lovely, kind and helpful. Katarina at the reception was welcoming and Nena helped us whenever we asked for room refills of coffee, toilet paper, towels. The whirlpool was the perfect temperature and the view was very pretty.

Fantastic staff
The staff were fantastic, some of the best cusotmer service I have ever received. Nothing was too much from sorting an early check in as we'd been hiking for 6 days to sorting storage during our hike.
Our room, the Spa and breakfast were all excellent.
A fabulous stay and when I'm in Innsbruck again this will be where I stay.
thank you all for such a great stay.
