Stayed here due to its proximity to old Innsbruck. It is also very convenient to the River Inn with fabulous viewpoints of the high peaks. It is only a few minutes to the Congress cable car access to the Nordkette Moontains. Amazing vantage point high above the clouds!

Loved this place. Love the location. The desk staff could not have been more patient or helpful. The breakfast was delicious and the staff there kept the dishes full and the area clean. Slept in a room with a king bed and two bunks and all beds we’re very comfortable.

The Maximilian is a beautiful place to stay in Innsbruck. Great location, comfortable room and bed, good shower and great breakfast. The staff was friendly and always helpful. I liked that we got free use of bus/trolley transportation during our 3 night stay.

This is your best choice!
There is not enough good things i could say about this place. To begin with their staff Francisca and Felipe are both super incredible. Both very informative, friendly and hospitable. The bkft was by far the best bkft we have ever eaten at any hotel in Europe. Better than any hotel in the US other than the Embassy suites. Rooms were comfortable and the shower was great. The hotel is close to everything we needed to see and the food selection mear the hotel was perfect. Best place to stay in Innsbruck hands down.

Dear Guest,We thank you for yor stay in our hotel as well as the overall good impression of our hotel.Since we try to be as friendly and as accommodating as possible to all our guests we are a bit stunned as to why all of our staff made such a bad impression during your stay.Thank you for your candor.

Excellent facility, helpful staff, good and varied breakfast options. A cozy lobby bar was present but did not appear to be open. The only unusual aspect was the desk was unmanned and doors locked overnight beginning at 10 pm. It would be a big problem if one misplaced their chip key.

Comfortable stay
The hotel is next to the Aldstadt and within walking distance of the main sights. Our room (503) was over a courtyard that was mostly quiet (a restaurant was noisy in the evening until late). Stylish fittings that worked well in a compact room. Breakfast buffet offered ample choice including lots of fresh fruit. Taxi rank opposite for easy departure to airport but there is a bus too. The Innsbruck welcome card offers free public transport and a discount on the Nordkette train/funicular/cable cars.

Good for 1 night max stay. Be carefull don’t get assigned a room in the highest floor/attic or you will be paying double room but getting half a room (i.e. you can’t stand as the roof is inclined at 45 degrees! The toilette is literally at 3 feet from your bed, window is 12”x12” (yes, inches) and WiFi is extremely slow almost unsable. Positive: location! Just 2 blocks from Maria Theresa strasse/blvd.

Dear guest,we are sorry that the room was too small. Unfortuantely you booked the room with the picture on expedia.com clearly showing the window as well as the roof incline.Our front desk staff is available from 7am to 10pm and if there were diffrent rooms available they would have happily helped you with your difficulties and changed your room category.We are very sorry about the internet. The issue has been adressed and we are working with our internet provider to make changes and future guest's stay as comfortable as possible.Thank you for your feedback.

Advise look elsewhere
There are likely better options in the area. Every hotel has small issues that can be easily overlooked, but unfortunately those issues kept adding up throughout my stay at the Maximilian to the point they could not be overlooked. Hotel is well located in the city center but missed on overall experience due to the mounting issues. The room was the smallest of any hotel I’ve stayed at on the trip. I also booked a double room with a queen bed and the room was smaller than other hotels where I booked a single room with double bed even after accounting for bed size. Despite booking a double room for the extra amenities, I was only given a single pillow, towel and double size comforter. The internet speed is extremely slow such that anything beyond text messages isn’t really usable. I asked another guest who was working in the lobby and she had similar issues and was using her phone data plan as a hotspot for her laptop. I also posted the “do not disturb” sign on the door while I was out and the cleaning staff still came in the room and serviced the room. This included removing the hung towels and replacing them with new ones despite the sign in the bathroom that hanging towels meant they would not be replaced. Mentioning this to the front desk merely elicited a “sorry” despite the intrusion. Buffet is expensive and lacks the quality of options I’ve found at other hotels in Austria.

Dear Guest,We are sorry to hear that you had such an awful stay in our Hotel Maximilian - Stadthaus Penz.We have new staff in our Housekeeping department so after we excused ourselves we reviewed the issue and told every new employee again that thay should not enter if there is a 'do not disturb sign'. We also addressed the issue with hung towels again and os far there has not been a problem anymore. Maybe we should have made it clearer to you that we would address the issue internally as well.The internet has been an issue for a while and we are not able to fix it yet, so we have to apologize for the inconvenience!We rarely get complaints about the breakfast so we are a little bit surprised as to what was lacking. There is a big fruit selection, cheese, bacon, eggs, different kinds of milk, cereal and more. We would very much appreciate an email with your missing preffered breakfast foods so we can futher improve.As for the other complaints during your stay:Your reservation was made for a 'Single Room' with a queen bed not a 'Double Room', so we were not aware that the room was too small in your opinion, otherwise we would have gladly looked for an alternative.Additionally our hotel is in the center of the city and we do not ever advertise that we have big rooms since the building is one of the historic old town buildings in Innsbruck's city center, the 'Old Town'.The pillows, towels and other amenities are always dependent on the number of guests. Since we are a family owned hotel and prize ourselfs for our friendliness the staff at the front desk is always more than happy to provide extra pillows, towels and other things if our guests just asks.

This location is convenient to the old town area and was clean and modern. There was no safe way to unload luggage.. had to park on the street across from the hotel and take your suitcases across a busy street, also ther was on site parking. Had topark at a sister hotel. There was no on site staff after 10 PM.

Great modern boutique hotel in the heart of the city center. It’s an easy walk to shopping and dining. We walked from train station to hotel in 15 min but took free bus back in less than 5 minutes. Spacious room, comfortable bed, super clean. Breakfast buffet had best fruit selection we’ve seen in a long time. Staff was very friendly and helpful and language barriers were non existent! Fantastic stay!

we stayed in a luxury room, nice and modern rooms and reception, but think the hallways let this hotel down as they were very dingy and depressing. Only complaint about our room was the lack of drawer storage for underwear or such items, way too many glasses in the room this space could be better used for the drawers. also the the toilet is a bit cramped and the door to the toilet and the bathroom itself are in very awkward places if there is someone using the sink, very ill placed, i feel the door to the bathroom is not needed as it glass anyway.

Lovely hotel at the heart of Innsbruck Old Town
Lovely hotel at the heart of Innsbruck Old Town. A very friendly and young smiling lady, dressed in traditional Tyrolean dress, helped us with a quick check-in. The Superior Double Room we stayed in on the 4th floor was very large, had a great view, and was tastefully decorated. The king bed was very comfortable. Excellent breakfast with lots of fresh options. The hotel was thoroughly clean as expected and service was professional.
