I booked this hotel based on its proximity to the Rastkogelbahn and the room descriptions and facilities described on the hotel website. We flew into Innsbruck and arranged a private transfer which took about 90minutes. The location of the hotel was great, with a short walk to the gondola. The bus stop for the glacier was a few steps from the ski room and ran frequently. The hotel is also adjacent to the Hexen Kessl, a must visit for some superb Austrian après! We received a very warm welcome when we arrived. Whilst our luggage was taken to the room and ski lockers, we were offered a welcome drink in the bar. We were also able to enjoy the afternoon food offering. After we’d finished our drink and food we were given a guided tour of the hotel. Very useful, as this was a first time visit. Our room (Junior Suite Burgjuwel) was great. Spacious with a generous seating area and double aspect, plenty of storage space for our clothes and ski gear and a lovely big and bright bathroom. It was quite warm at night but we simply turned off the radiator and opened a window. Housekeeping was very efficient and we loved the duvet art! We were on the first floor but would ask for a higher floor next time as that would afford a better view of the mountains. The food selection and quality at breakfast was excellent. From cereals, fruit, cheese, meats, pastries and bakery items to a selection of hot dishes, including omelettes made to order. I loved juicing my own carrots in the machine provided. The food choice and quality was also excellent in the afternoon and evening. It was great to come back from skiing and be able to grab a snack, either savoury or sweet or both. The evening meal comprised six courses, starting with your choice of salad, starter, soup, main, dessert and cheese. The wellness facilities were simply amazing. We loved the rooftop pool and the event sauna in particular. We had a fabulous time at the Tuxerhof and will definitely return.
