Hotel Heiligkreuz has been run by the Eisendle family since 1954 and is now in its third generation, led by siblings Rainer Eisendle and Heidi Corazza. It stands in the quiet Heiligkreuz district of Hall in Tirol, about 1.2 km from Hall's medieval old town and around 10 km east of Innsbruck, which trains reach from Hall in about nine minutes.
Every room looks out at the mountains, from 24 m2 standard doubles to 29 m2 Superior rooms with balconies, a Junior Suite and family rooms with two bedrooms. Breakfast is a generous buffet with oven-fresh bread and homemade jams, there is a large garden, and the Lobby Astrobar pours Tyrolean wines and schnapps each evening, with an astronomy evening on Thursdays. There are 36 free parking spaces and EV charging, and it is a certified bike hotel on the Inn cycle path. It suits drivers, cyclists, families and business trips.
