Not what we were led to expect.
No aircon in the room which made the room uncomfortably warm even with outside temperatures being cool. Beds were uncomfortable and not a ‘double’ bed which wee booked. It was x2 single beds pushed together which came apart when sleeping. Pillows were very flat, small and uncomfortable. Staff were mostly polite but on more than one occasion completely ignored us when we approached the front counter and seemed more interested in playing with their phone. The breakfast was tasty and the leisure facilities were good.

A great stay in Innsbruck
We loved our stay at the Hotel Grauer Bar. It was conveniently located to the things we wanted to see and do in Innsbruck. We absolutely loved the pool on the top floor. Would definitely recommend this hotel.

The rooms were clean, staff friendly. Breakfast was very good. I had booked 3 rooms months ago, & one of our friend's received an upgrade to a spacious suite.
After enjoying biking in Innsbruck, the 6 in our group went to the rooftop hot tub at 4PM. Sadly, they don't fill it or turn on the steam rooms until 5PM! How disappointing.

First thing that we found out was lack of free parking, we had to use the city garage parking which was quite expensive. Then the rooms were very basic, for this price we expected something better. Bathroom situation was strange, sink by the door, separate from the bathroom.
Jacuzzi, pool etc were very nice with a great view. Although there were not many towels for the amount of guests using the amenities.
Breakfast was very nice with a great touch with Prosecco.
Overall we had a good experience but had higher expectations for this price.

Great Stay in Innsbruck
The perfectly situated hotel to explore the city center of Innsbruck! Everything is steps outside the hotel door. The rooms were very comfortable and the staff was the most helpful we encountered in all of Europe. The breakfast is excellent and the rooftop pool was an amazing bonus. Highly recommend!

The location is excellent for access to Altstadt, the University and other downtown locations. The staff were friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and accommodating. And the breakfast was wonderful, as I expected.
This hotel’s reputation has stood the test of time, my first visit being in 1969. I hope I have a chance to return!
