Great town full of nice old buildings, great bars and a wonderful skijumping event
Con

getting VERY expensive --- too many tourists
In a nutshell

Although Innsbruck is a rather small town it has some nice things to offer. Not to mention the nature around it...
57 Reviews This building in the very centre of Innsbruck was between 1653 and 1765 the house of the family of the architects Gumpp, who were the most important architects of Innsbruck : Christoff Gumpp 1600 - 1672 Johann Martin Gumpp d. Ältere 1643 - 1720 Georg Anton Gumpp 1682 - 1754 Johann Martin Gumpp der...
15 Reviews The Swarovski Crystal Worlds are to your mind what the high seas were to Columbus, Magellan or Vasco da Gama. The place of origin of a voyage of discovery in which a sparkling sea of enlightenment awaits you. Baudelaire, García Lorca, Goethe and Shakespeare are your literary guides. The biggest and...
11 Reviews and 276 Opinions The Weisses Kreuze hotel is in the center of the old town section of Innsbruck, just a stones throw...
9 Reviews What a great idea to build a panorama Cafe into the ski-jump on Bergisel . Cafe im Turm is certainly the best choice, when you like to have a perfect view on a nice and sunny day ! The restaurant is open daily untill 07.00p.m. upon reservation they even open the restaurant also for groups in the...
3 Reviews McDonalds's??? Well, yes, and what is it doing on the ground floor of this lovely baroque main street building? I'm just kidding. I collect pictures of McDonald's in bizarre places in Europe. Enjoy the anomaly. You don't have to eat there, and neither do I!!!
6 Reviews when out in Innsbruck and it's getting late, make sure you don't miss the Plateau which is is located on the "Viaduktbögen" street. people usually don't go there before 3.30 and if you hit Plateau around 4.30 you can be sure you'll have an amazing time of partying there!
18 Reviews Intercity Express trains run between Salzburg and Innsbruck in an hourly frequency. In 2009 April the journey used to take about 1 hour 50 minutes We pre-booked the tickets from ÖBB travel portal at a cost of 64 EUR on a single journey for me and my wife. The train compartment was of European...
15 Reviews As a small town transport in Innsbruck does not cause big problems. Connections with buses and city-trains on main routes are well established, except for late hours (esp after midnight); public transport to some remote parts of the town or of surrounding villages can be difficult, keep this in...
7 Reviews typical souvenirs of the tryol region, however the prices are killer and their return policy is not listed on their recipts. found them to be hostile and rude and particularly money grubbing sweaters are market up as you might expect in that sort of store where a tourist does not get value for...
7 Reviews ... is another well-established Cafe-Konditorei in Innsbruck (the oldest in Innsbruck/Tyrol). Konditorei means pastry shop and you can expect self-made cakes and pastries. The Munding can be found in the old part of the town, leaving the Golden Roof behind you, heading to the...
6 Reviews Harly Cafe Bar in Innsbruck - REVIEW (heads up - warning!) 0 stars My husband and I used to love the burgers a couple of years ago. We never forgot and couldn't wait to return. So we made a big effort to go across town to have our favorite burger in Innsbruck. What do we get? A cold-bun, PROCESSED...
4 Reviews OK OK OK you can stop laughing now..... We had the best parking anyone could ever get in Innsbruck and it only cost me 21.00 euros. When we returned to our A-Class Mercedes it had a “Welcome to Austria” parking ticket on the window. Guess it was not too bad to pay 10.00 euros an hour to park in...
6 Reviews The best part of the visit was the trip by the public bus from Innsbruck Railway Station to The Swarovski Crystal World, as one could enjoy the beautiful Innsbruck suburbs. We took the public bus as we had just missed the free shuttle and did not have time to wait for another shuttle which was after...
7 Reviews During the winters,temperature can fall down to -10 at nights. So carry a lot of warm clothes. Gloves and a cap can always be purchased at the local markets. Carry a good pair of shoes..preferably leather as you can slip on ice with the regular keds. Gets pretty cold in the night..temperature can...
20 Reviews What a place, and what a memory of climbing this particular place. OK, facts first. Sonnbendjoch is found in the Ursprungspass in the Tyrol overlooking the town of Kramsach. It's one of many stunning peaks, Sonnbendjoch being 1986metres above sea level, the highest being the Rofanspitze at...
32 Reviews Pronounced Hell im Tirol, the town is just 10kms east of Innsbruck. It's one of my favourite places in Tyrol. First settled in the 9th century, it developed as an important trading town in the 13th century due to the rise in the demand of salt/industries related to servicing salt works etc as well...
14 Reviews Vierschanzen Tournee (Four Hills) is the second best-known ski jumping competition after the Winter Olympics. It was created in 1953 and has since been taking place every year. As the name suggests, Four Hills are made up of 4 individual competitions - Oberstdorf (29.12.), Garmisch-Partenkirchen...
15 Reviews There are several cable cars up into the mountains on either side of Innsbruck. At least two have cafes at the top. We walked up from this cable car to a viewing area and from it we could see the mountain deer, called chamois, but I have to admit that I needed the help of other tourists on the top...
17 Reviews The city tower is situated in the old town, in the square where is Goldenes Dachl too. The tower was built in 1440. The roof was renovated in XVI century. It is possible to go upstairs and to see around. To be true I didn't do that.
