Austria Classic Hotel Heiligkreuz - Hall in Tirol

I have been coming to Hall for 50 years to visit a friend. This was my first stay at Hotel Heiligkreuz. I found a gem. The family-run hotel is located in a quiet neighborhood just north of old town, a ten-minute walk from the hotel. My second-story room was basic with a comfortable bed, sofa and table, bathroom, and a balcony with a gorgeous view of the Alps. Everything was immaculate. A typical Austrian spread was available for breakfast on the first floor (second for Americans). Off the main entrance is a small bar with seating and additional seating on the other side of the room. A table and chairs are available outside on the porch. My greatest praise is for the family. They were warm, helpful, and friendly. The mother recommended that I take an alternate bus into Innsbruck from a stop down the block. I had never taken that route before and it was breathtaking, through small mountain villages leading directly to the heart of Innsbruck. Family members made other travel recommendations and were so kind. There are fancier hotels, but if you are looking for an authentic Austrian experience, try Hotel Heiligkreuz. I can't wait to return.
