City centre, beside the Landestheater, Innsbruck city centreOn our lists
Grauer Bär stands on Universitätsstrasse right beside the Landestheater, with the Hofburg, the Hofgarten and the old town lanes all a couple of minutes away on foot. It is a large, modern hotel with rooms from compact singles to 50 m2 suites, all with adjustable air conditioning, and breakfast is included in the room rate.
The draw is the fifth floor: a heated 45 m2 panoramic pool above the rooftops, open from 8:00 to 21:00, with an outdoor jacuzzi, a Finnish sauna and a steam room alongside. The woodfire restaurant cooks steaks over open flame, and there is an underground garage with direct access to the hotel. Stay two nights or more and the Innsbruck Welcome Card comes free from reception. It suits families, skiers who want the ski bus close by, and anyone who likes a swim before dinner.
In winter
The ski bus leaves from the Hofgarten coach park about five minutes' walk away, the Christmas markets are around the corner, and the sauna, steam room and outdoor jacuzzi open from 15:00 in winter.
In summer
Swim in the rooftop pool with the Nordkette in view, then walk two minutes into the old town; the Welcome Card included on longer stays helps with cable car and sightseeing plans.
