The location is incredible, you can't get find a true ski in ski out like this for a comparable price. Dinners were also excellent, and the general atmosphere was quite warm and inviting. The views from the dining room are top notch. The staff was friendly, and the two dogs on the property were loved by all. Breakfast was basic but not lacking, and was a serve yourself buffet of typical Austrian breakfast spread, no complaints here!

The pre trip communication from the staff was horrendous. I reached out several times with questions, and either got no reply or a half answer. I felt that the staff was not forthcoming with helpfulness, and everything had to be teased out of them. Many people are arriving with roller luggage, and it is a tough walk with wheeled luggage down the ski slope. They have a snowmobile they can use to help move luggage but only if you know to ask. The matrazenlager is quite basic and has a mix of bunkbeds and floor mattresses. The mattresses on the floor are seperated by about 5cm of spcae and are extremely close to one another. Be aware you may have some strangers a little closer than expected if staying in this room.

Had the best stay here over New Year’s Eve for 3 nights. The location is excellent, has the best panoramic views. The gondola up doesn’t start until 8:30 so you can easily get first tracks in mornings. Good breakfast Buffet. A few options for dinner, I loved the goulash soup and my son loved the Schnitzel. The staff was absolutely incredible. So friendly. Like they knew you for years. Michelle the host was awesome. Dirk was also amazing. They were always so helpful. He brought our luggage in a ski doo up to top of gondola when we left. I would spend every New Year’s Eve here if I could. They did a 5 course dinner which was awesome. There was a lovely bonfire. Dancing. And views of the most incredible fireworks. 10/10.

A railing on the top bunk for my kid would have been good. He’s a roller in the night. The wifi didn’t really work when we were there. But they had lots of cards and board games for the evenings.

This was such a unique spot with so much history, as you can imagine from a 99 year old lodge on top of a legendary ski hill! We expected it would be like a rustic backcountry hut (but very easily accessible thanks to the gondola) and it was, but so much more: super nice staff, decent food, an opportunity to hang out and meet other guests in the restaurant/pub, and be about 100 m away from the start of the Hannenkahm downhill which, being our primary reason for visiting Kitzbuhel (to cheer on the Canadians!), was absolutely incredible. To watch training runs from literally outside the lodge was one of the highlights of our time in Europe following a few World Cup races. We were a group of 8 (4 couples) and we shared 2 quad rooms for 2 nights and staying here was a really fun part of our 3 week trip. If you are looking for the Ritz, this isn't it, but if you are looking for a memorable adventure, stay here! Loved it! Thanks to Michelle and Dirk for the great hospitality.

Beautiful location and kind staff! The location is just incredible and very easy to reach if you take the Hahnenkammbahn up, and then either a short 5/10min walk down (over snow in winter) or short ride with ski/snowboard. It is also next to a slope so from the hut you can ski directly to a lift which is amazing, especially early in the morning during the sunrise, just beautiful! I think it can be a very fun place to socialize, however when I was there during Christmas it was super quiet, which i very enjoyed also. The staff made sure I had vegan food which I really appreciated. And the two dogs are just the cutest!

The meals at this location are great. Breakfast is pretty standard European continental style breakfast. Dinner is a three course meal of local dishes. Everyone staying in the hostel that wants to eat all meat in the dining area allowing for great opportunities to meat other travelers. The vibe differs each night pending on how many people are there and the energy they bring. Music plays, volume goes up as people get into it. Food service takes about 2 hours from start to finish on the busiest of nights, much quicker with less guests staying. The staff will keep the music playing and drinks served as long as people want to keep going.

This hostel is atop the Hahnenkamm gondola which MOST nights of week stops uploading people at 1630 so plan your day accordingly. If you want to see the town of Kitzbühel. After 1630 you’re committed to staying at the hostel. Also, to get to the hostel it requires the purchase of a lift ticket, no free rides for anyone at any of the accommodations atop the gondola.

VIEWS and more views. amazing staff (DANKESCHÖN Michelle!!) that are so kind and helpful. One of the staff helped take our bags to the gondola via the snow mobile so we did not have to carry them. Food is wonderful. This experience was worth all the effort to get there. Not to mention the best skiing I’ve ever had (coming from someone who lived in Utah for 5 years). DO IT.

Nothing! But do note that the gondola closes at 1600, thus if you have plans for evening that is not going to work - at least in the winter.

I have never stayed in a mountaintop cabin before and Michelle and Peter were incredible hosts! It was the night before they were fully booked out so I got the entire upstairs dorm area to myself. At dinner, Michelle gave me free schnapps and in the morning Peter gave me a ride to the lift on the snowmobile. Oh, they also had 2 adorable Labrador Retrievers around.

My only problem was that access to this hut is attached to the main Hahnenkammbahn lift. If you don't get to the lift before 4 pm, you can't get up.

An amazing location on the Hahnenkamm close to the top of cable cars. With only 4 other guests it was very quiet. In the middle of June. We took a short walk in the evening with the mountain to ourselves, other than the cows. Spectacular views and very serene. Our host Michelle was wonderful. Dinner and breakfast were very nice. The start house for the downhill course was 200 meters away, which was very cool. Those Crazy Canucks from the 80's were crazy!

Great staff, Dirk and Michelle really made it fun and are super helpful. Best location for ski racing fans in town to watch the downhill training and really special to think we were basically sleeping at the start! Great vibe felt like a backcountry ski lodge but with a restaurant and gondola access :) 99 years of rustic charm. One of most special places we stayed over our 3 week trip following the world cup.

Absolutely charming mountain accommodation right on the slopes. We had a room with private bathroom and a chalet type studio both with the most amazing views over the valley and the mountains. Michelle, Peter and Uwe were fantastic and went the extra mile. Can’t wait to return in the summer! Food and drinks were great.

Nothing.
