This panorama is no less charming in the morning light, particularly when one is enjoying a top-flight breakfast: delectable pâtés, sumptuous ham, cheese, and fish specialities, as well as an unusually extensive selection of exotic fruits like fresh pomegranates, prickly pears, and pitayas. It is thus not surprising that The Penz has long established itself as a favourite brunch spot for Innsbruckers.
But the hotel’s outstanding location also must be mentioned, only a few minutes’ walk from the galleries, museums, shops, and bars of the city’s historic city centre. Also worth mentioning: the remarkable glass-sheathed façade with its panorama lift and the extremely friendly and helpful staff – from the very informative receptionist to the attentive waiter at breakfast, who by the second day knows to ask, “Are you ready for your second cappuccino?”

Visitors to Innsbruck in the summer months may be amazed to encounter a glacier-like, futuristic ice formation in the middle of the city, but they are experiencing just one of many examples of innovative architecture that serve to create a stimulating contrast to the numerous historic buildings here in Tirol.
