BEST WESTERN Plus Hotel Goldener Adler Innsbruck

Hotel Goldener Adler was a fantastic experience. I stayed for 5 nights with my girlfriend and we will have fond memories of it. The hotel is located in the main walking area overlooking the fabulous Inn river. The hotel building has an incredible history and is definitely a unique experience. I have to say that the staff is extremely professional and well trained, everyone from reception to cleaning to the restaurant staff. The price is a bit high, but unfortunately this is the trend now with most hotels. We didn't have a chance to experience the breakfast, but we went for dinner 2 times. The restaurant is definitely NOT a tourist trap as described by some tourists on certain review platforms. The portions are excellent and with a limited menu you can expect everything to be fresh. The cheese platter has some incredible local cheese types which I highly recommend. Overall it was a fantastic experience.

This is a unique hotel, housed in a building that started life in around 1340. The interior is quite fascinating with many items in the public areas highlighting the historical aspect of the hotel. The room I had was well appointed with probably the biggest bed I've ever slept in - very comfortable - a good desk, a large flat screen TV, a good sized safe, air conditioning, a kettle for tea and coffee, and a well fitted ensuite with a large shower with rainfall shower fitting. Everything in the room was spotlessly clean and there was the eco option to choose whether to have the room serviced or not every day (with a free drink for the days you don't require servicing). There is a small bar area and an atmospheric restaurant for breakfast and evening meals. Although breakfast wasn't included in my booking I did take it every day. There were plenty of options including cereals, cold meats, cheeses, juice, etc and scrambled or fried eggs were cooked to order. Evening meals in the restaurant were varied and delicious, and service was top class. For an extra charge, the hotel also provided a very good laundry service with a fast turnaround; clothes taken to reception first thing in the morning were laundered and returned by early afternoon. The hotel is in an excellent location right in the old town close to the main square. Within easy walking distance is the Hofkirche which was built as a memorial to Emperor Maximilian 1. The kirche contains an impressive cenotaph with a remarkable collection of German renaissance sculpture, it is well worth a visit.

Really fantastic location in the old town in a building full of history. I loved how the decor in the hallways celebrated the inn's past. I stayed in a single room, which was a bit dark but overall comfortable and functional. Also really appreciated the perk of being able to make a reservation at the restaurant downstairs (which was excellent) despite it being a busy Friday night.

Location was very good and reception staff exceptionally helpful. Interesting historical building.

the restaurant inside the hotel was one of the best places we ate during the trip. The location could have been a bit closer to the bus stops but that also meant it wasn't overly busy... which was nice.
