Grand Hotel Europa

Opposite Innsbruck's railway station, in the heart of the city, the Europa is the best hotel in Innsbruck (it's also part of the Worldhotels Reservations System). Dating from 1869, this very formal but friendly hotel has hosted Queen Elizabeth II, the shah of Iran, General Patton, and the crew of Apollo 14. Rooms and suites are handsomely furnished with modern conveniences and Tyrolean or Biedermeier-style decorations. Each room offers a comfortable bed and a bathroom with a neatly kept tub/shower combination. The uniformed staff is helpful in every way and will usually be willing to show you the ornate yellow-and-white Barock Saal, which the Tyrolean government uses for its most important functions. The ballroom was constructed by King Ludwig's Bavarian architects and builders. The restaurant, Europa Stüberl, is the finest in Tyrol.
