I didn't know what to expect when I booked this inn. An Austrian acquaintance said it was the best hotel in Innsbruck, and I said most likely not. The rate was 75 EU (single) including breakfast, pretty standard for most "older" quaint hotels in Europe. Now that I've stayed there, I don't think I'd stay anywhere else in Innsbruck. It may not be grand but was just perfect. The hotel is roughly 20 minutes walk from the train station, in the heart of the old city of Innsbruck. It is 600 years old, very well kept and staying there is like staying in a family museum. The entrance to the hotel is a cavern with stairs leading to the reception on the 1st floor (2nd). The hallways and stairways are traditionally decorated, predominantly heads of deer, other animals, occasional stuffed bird, old paintings (incl the family ancestors), and few pieces of hiking gear. However, the hotel is very well equipped with modern devices like a proper (small) elevator, halogen track lighting on sensor in the hallways, even a computer and desk for public use on my floor. My room was on the 4th floor, and fairly good sized. It is simply furnished, modern European style, efficient, more like a room in a mountain lodge. Two single beds on each wall, separate toilet and shower, updated lighting & electrical, radio alarm clock, wall safe, modern windows, even remote controlled air conditioning (which I did not expect at all.) The hotel it seems specializes in Tyrolean cuisine served outside in the terrace or in the restaurant on the 1st floor. Breakfast was typical cold European breakfast, lots of bread, cheeses, cold cuts, jams. Weisses Rossl does not have any pretension, just a very old inn, in a very old building, traditional yet modern. The staff (lady at the reception, the servers in the restaurant) were very helpful and engaging. And a cab to the train station costs only 6 EU.
