"Arrived at the hotel late just before Andrew the concierge left for the evening. Andrew was very welcoming and friendly. Wish we’d had more time in innsbruck - a lovely town. Beautiful view of the mountains from our balcony and hearing the church bells in the morning was wonderful. A good nights sleep on comfy beds and we opted for the fab breakfast downstairs. Perfect."
"This property is brand new and the shower all filled the bathroom with 1/2” of water the staff was unable to assist. They made piles of towels to block the water from the poorly built bathrooms they are all like this. No concessions could be made by the hotel"
"This place was wonderful and so were the staff! The sauna and pool were a plus. Communication and check in was easy and great. Highly recommend this place."
