The golden roof of Innsbruck is a fun little thing to see and is in a beautiful part of the old town. There’s lots of good shopping and restaurants around here that make for a fun outing or a good walk from your hotel. It’s worth seeing this too since it’s an iconic part of Innsbruck.

The Golden Roof in Innsbruck is a captivating sight! Its shimmering gold tiles make it a stunning backdrop for photos, especially under sunlight. A perfect spot for a leisurely stroll and soaking in the historic charm of the old town. A must-visit for unforgettable memories.

A beautiful city with stunning mountain views. The cityscape is always set against a backdrop of mountains, which makes it truly picturesque. Everything is very charming, with plenty of restaurants and shops all around.

The Golden Roof is Innsbruck’s most famous landmark, a late Gothic balcony built in 1500 for Emperor Maximilian I and decorated with 2,657 gilded copper tiles. It’s an impressive piece of history and a symbol of the city, though the small size can feel a bit underwhelming compared to its fame. Worth a look while wandering the Old Town, especially for the historical significance, but don’t expect a grand spectacle.

The Golden Roof is a landmark located in the old town. It is the most famous symbol of the city. The roof, completed in 1500, was decorated with 2,657 gilded copper tiles for Emperor Maximilian I to commemorate his marriage to Bianca Maria Sforza. The emperor and his wife watched various events from the balcony. Unfortunately, due to the height, it is not possible to see the details more clearly.

The entry to the museum is free with the Innsbruck card. So I went in to take a look... It wasn't much. But provided some relief from the scorching sun. You have to go upstairs.

Each building on the street is so defined and colorful that you can almost miss this one with the golden roof built for the Emperor so he could view the street and tournaments. Nevertheless it’s gorgeous. There’s a small museum inside but I didn’t go in. There is so much to see on the street across from this Goldenes Dachl that you become distracted with the sheer art that these two streets are.

Came to visit the cool facility during a business sports trip. The view is fabulous and gives you the opportunity to witness a top-notch Olympic sports facility. I didn’t eat or visit the restaurant, and you shouldn’t expect much attraction there, aside from the view and explanatory signs. For the athletes in the crowd, you can make it an impressive 3km run with an 80m elevation trail from the historic town to the entrance, then an additional 250 stairs up! all the way up to the terrace. €10 for a single ticket, with a discount available for students. Please bring a card or a multiple attraction card for the city, or use your local hotel discount code. For more endurance sports suggestions, check out @triathlontrips on Instagram and Facebook.

Went in November; walkin to take some good photos and videos from top. 🤗🇩🇪 Ticket is 11 euro per person.🫰 30 minutes walk from the ibis hotel ; HBF train station.💪 They have restaurant and washroom on top. 🍷🙏 No jumping at that season as it was closed in Oct.😎

Such a cool experience to see the ski jump and the place of the winter Olympics. It is a very reasonably priced ticket for an amazing experience to go up to the top, see incredible views of the city/mountains and if you're lucky you'll get to see the teams practice their ski jumps which is an incredible experience to witness. They also have a gift shop and a restaurant.

This is an artificial ski slope designed by famous architect. Offers Fabulous views of the Innsbruck city below and the Nordkette mountains beyond. Turning around on the viewing platform, we could see the other side as well. On a clear day, it says one can see a span of over 150 kms. There is a restaurant on the top. Additionally, we got to see a few jumps as well and it was fascinating.

Went there on a whim on a Tuesday. It’s a bit confusing to find the actual ski jump from the parking spot which was 3,80€ for 90min. After we looked around for a bit, we took the gondola up to the tower and were fortunate enough to see someone practicing the jump. That was really interesting to watch and quite a unique opportunity.

Amazing views, architecture, and Tyrolean history We visited Bergisel Ski Jump in May, and it turned out to be one of the highlights of our trip to Innsbruck. The ski jump itself, designed by Zaha Hadid, is a stunning piece of architecture. We took the funicular and elevator up to the top, and the panoramic views over Innsbruck and the surrounding Alps were absolutely breathtaking—even without snow on the ground! It was really cool to stand where the athletes take off—gives you a whole new respect for ski jumping. There’s also a cozy café at the top where we enjoyed coffee with a view. The visit also includes entry to the Tyrol Panorama Museum (not the Olympic Museum), which features a fascinating look at Tyrolean history, culture, and an impressive 360° panoramic painting. Tips for your visit: 🎟️ Combo tickets include the funicular, elevator to the tower, and entrance to the Tyrol Panorama Museum. 🗓️ Visiting in May was perfect—no crowds, pleasant weather, and everything open. 📸 Visit on a clear day for the best views—sunset is especially beautiful. ☕ Don’t miss the café at the top—it’s small but offers incredible scenery. 👟 Some light walking and stairs involved, so wear comfortable shoes. A must-visit spot in Innsbruck, even outside of ski season. Beautifully designed, educational, and unforgettable.

We really enjoyed checking out the ski jump! It was rainy and cloudy so there were not many people around. The Innsbruck Card was convenient.

Pretty, although expectations for whole city were perhaps too high

Elegant and Lively – Strolling Down Maria-Theresien-Straße Maria-Theresien-Straße is the beating heart of Innsbruck—a stunning promenade that blends baroque elegance with the buzz of modern city life. Flanked by ornate historic buildings and snow-capped Alpine views, this boulevard made a lasting impression on me. The street is lined with a great mix of cafés, shops, and local boutiques, making it perfect for both leisurely strolling and spontaneous shopping. The atmosphere was vibrant yet relaxed, with locals mingling with tourists, buskers adding music to the air, and cozy terraces inviting you to sit back and take it all in. One of the highlights was the St. Anne’s Column (Annasäule), standing proudly against the backdrop of Nordkette mountain peaks—it’s a perfect photo spot and a lovely place to pause and admire your surroundings. The blend of modern stores and centuries-old architecture gives Maria-Theresien-Straße a unique charm that’s both timeless and trendy. Whether you’re there to shop, sip coffee, or simply enjoy the scenery, this street is a must-visit. It’s more than a thoroughfare—it’s an experience that captures the spirit of Innsbruck beautifully.

impressive street with historical buildings and new construction shops. Tram and buses pass through it and it starts with the victory gate and end with the View of Baroque towers and the Mountains.

Maria-Theresien-Straße is 500 meters long and part of it, 200 meters at one end, is a pedestrian zone path with cafes and shops on both sides. This is the heart of Innsbruck that attracts both locals and tourists alike. This street is especially scenic with the Nordkette mountain range as its backdrop.

Fun street to walk around with beautiful buildings, sights, shops, and restaurants!

Innsbruck’s main pedestrian avenue, framed by colorful Baroque and Rococo façades with the Alps rising dramatically in the background. Dating back to the 13th century, it has long been the city’s commercial and social heart. Today, it’s filled with shops, cafés, and street performers, with landmarks like Annasäule anchoring the view. Whether you’re people-watching, shopping, or just soaking up the scenery, this street captures Innsbruck’s unique mix of urban energy and mountain charm.

Nice street to walk down and chill on. Occasional street performance/music. Nice views

Nice small zoo up lower area of the mountain. The crowd was less in the afternoon and my kid enjoy the playground in the zoo. There are mixture of birds and animals so it is easy to navigate around and visit this zoo. Only thing is reaching the zoo, either by driving or like us as tourists which we took the train instead.

Great attraction up the mountain in Innsbruck. The animals were clearly very hot during a scorching August day, but the zoo did not disappoint. We brought our stroller which is recommended given a lot of walking required. Included in the Innsbruck card.

Some animals were cooped up in too small cages… on the other hand, some animals would already be extinct if it hadn’t been for zoos’ breeding programs.. So it’s a bit double. We enjoyed the visit but it would be a good thing if the cages of some of the bigger animals would be extended!

Bigger than expected but a lot of empty cages. Built on a steep hill so be prepared to walk up and down hills. Having said that, there are some highlights; the brown bear, the alpine ibex, vultures, bison and wild boars. Add the zoo to your cable car trip for an extra €5. Recommend a walk to the the top of the foxes area where you can have an ice cream, swing on a wooden hammock and take in the views of Innsbruck.

Great little zoo up in the hills. Nice to get up close with some of the animals. Brought the toddler there who wanted to nap so I had more fun. Love that the Moose stopped, looked at me, squat and pee’d whilst making eye contact with me 😂 Took the W bus from the town. Quick and efficient, easy to plan return trip as it came to the zoo every 30 mins.

Great zoo with interesting ways of presenting the animals like open cages-you can actually have an eagle flying over your head. It seems that there was a lot of thinking in celreating each animal with the space that will suit it best

Get ready for a hike! Lovely place to spend half a day or more but like most people out here would have already posted, it has an uphill to downhill configuration, so you're in for a hike. Don't forget to visit the small museum they have as well.

Incredible view with the cable cart up to the top of the mountain! Views all over Innsbruck town and during a clear day you can see all the way to Italy.

Nordkette is an absolute must-visit! The cable cars take you smoothly all the way up, and once you’re there, the views are breathtaking — easily some of the most beautiful I’ve ever seen over any city.

Great afternoon. Great gondola ride. Staff seemed a bit unbothered driving the gondola. Little busy but great experience. Reckoned going later as there’s slight less crowds and you’ll get better pics!

One of the best views of the city on the top of the mountains! You can go there for skiing through the cable car or you can also go there on your own by hiking. However, don't forget to get dressed properly for a very steep hike and make sure you have enough water till you reach to the top. You'll see, it's definitely worth climbing up there! (By the way, the photos were taken in April)

If you're in Innsbruck, you should definitely spend a day (or more than a day) in the mountains. You can reach the top with the cable cars, and the view of Innsbruck from there is stunning.

The views were stunning and a great experience overall. It’s very cold and windy at the top in February so dress warm and wear appropriate shoes if you want to do some exploring. We weren’t skiing.

The wonderful picturesque views. Our world is really amazing with its own beauty. We cannot forget some memories that are completely our fortune. These beauties make our earth more attractive with its own lovely points. Incomparable place ever I have seen with my creators(Allah) given eyes. Alhamdulillah♥️✌️

We visited Innsbruck same time last year, it was a weekend excursion from Munich, we were a little disappointed as Sitzwohl closed for weekends (both Sat & Sun). This year, extra effort been made to reach Innsbruck on Friday evening, and advanced booking been made ahead. Long story short, this is a great restaurant which score with flying color for all 3 attributes. If I were to add one more dimension, I would praise highly on the presentation of the each dish served… full of creativity & aesthetics.. Kudos to the Chef who really care for finite details. The white asparagus soup served was the first positive impression, followed by the pleasant surprise was the Tuna Pizza, the Tuna was freshly sliced in Sashimi form, layered with pickle ginger & Mayonnaise Wasabi stacked above a approx 3-4 inches Pizza bread… my immediate impression was that it was Japanese Washoku Fusion, for once I thought we were in a Japanese restaurant, another Japanese Fusion element was the tender Black Angus steak which top with the sauce which seemingly cheated my taste buds as a Wafu sauce (Yaki Niku sauce). The restaurant Manager Russel presented a highest level of hospitality, in my opinion. We promised Russel that we will come again for sure!!

Sitzwohl is a wonderful restaurant with amazing food, it has great atmosphere and service. You can choose food from vegetarian, fish or meat dishes. The appetizers have good portions and taste wonderful, i recommend the tuna as a starter. For dessert there are a few choices and the irish cake absolutely blew my mind. The restaurant can also host larger groups or be booked by a dinner out with your co-workers.

Top notch restaurant would put it in 1 star Michelin range. The full tasting menu is the way to go. Great wine list at a decent prices. People have been “complaining” about price but I think it’s perfectly priced for the quality, portion and service. Each dish was balanced thoughtful and served well. I had an awesome staff member from Sardinia, he was great! 6 stars!

This is the end of a beautiful year, and this restaurant and the team has touch our heart with this unique experience. The environment, the service and the food were a great combination. I can say was poetry, love and magic in one place. A new year eve dinner was ahead and we were well welcomed with champagne glass and a avocado tartar that just open our appetite for the wonderful dinner. I will let the pictures to show how this place will take you to a trip of flavours and textures. Their contemporary cuisine and respect for and to the products show the value of this restaurant. I can tell you how wonderful and unforgettable this place was but. The only thing I would like to say; I will 100% come back next year to celebrate, because I know they will celebrate with me and my family by delighting us/you with a magical feast.

If you’re lucky enough to have Lee as your server, you’re in excellent hands. He’s a true asset to the restaurant and a rare gem in hospitality. Thank you, Lee, for an unforgettable evening!

Short: Top Restaurant and bar. Pricy but worth it! Long: Bar and adjacent conference room on the ground floor (nice outdoor tables too) and a very good restaurant upstairs. Menu changes with every season and is accompanied by a decent variety of wines. Staff is very friendly, facilities and such are clean. Parking is possible in the underground carpark right underneath the restaurant. It's definitely not cheap but it delivers. I'd recommend doing a reservation.

The evening started off great with a rosemary & apricot sorbet Prosecco spritz. Next came the prosciutto and melon spread which was to-die-for (IMHO) and we haven’t even reached our mains!

We had a great dinner! Food was perfect, service even better. Not rushed and all questions answered (English). Wine paring suggestions from our server were spot on. We did one of each menu and shared. Highly recommended!

The restaurant has a beautiful setting with a stunning view. We were mostly looked after by a local medical student, who was wonderful—very friendly and helpful in both German and English. The starter and dessert were a delightful surprise, though we found the main course and soup a bit underwhelming in comparison.

Our food was delicious, prices quite high but I'd say worth it since it all tasted really well. The restaurant is quite small and it feels tight in there. The waiters asked us what felt like a million times if we were good and still needed something, it felt like they wanted for us to leave asap which wasn't all too great. But our overall experience was good. Probably coming back, but since it's quite hard to get a table, not all too soon.

We reserved the entire restaurant for our wedding celebration and it was fantastic. The restaurant prepared everything for us thus planning was super easy. The staff was amazing and extremely attentive throughout the night. They went above and beyond and our guests were all extremely happy. Thank you!

Highly recommended for Visitors to Innsbruck! Not just for the restaurant view but the food quality and staff service was excelllent for the price paid during our lunch visit. Presentation and food taste was superb!

Really cozy place, nice food, nice service. Really enjoyed it!

From the moment I stepped into Restaurant Lichtblick, I was captivated. The staff were wonderfully accommodating, setting the stage for what would be an unforgettable dining experience. Their particular attention to solo diners like myself made the evening even more enjoyable, creating a welcoming and friendly atmosphere. The food at Lichtblick is beyond comparison - each dish is not only cooked to perfection but also carries an innovative flair that sets it apart from anything else in the area. The taste is memorable, a testament to the creativity and skill that goes into each plate. But the experience isn’t limited to the palate alone. The stunning views from the restaurant add a visual delight to the entire affair. Paired with the gentle background music that encourages contemplation without being intrusive, the ambiance is nothing short of perfect. However, the only slight drawback was the limited options for wine by the glass. More variety here would further elevate the dining experience. In conclusion, Restaurant Lichtblick offers an unparalleled dining experience with its welcoming staff, innovative menu, and breathtaking views. It’s an absolute must-visit for anyone seeking a memorable meal.

restaurant in the center of Innsbruck, beautiful and elegant venue, adequate service. modern cuisine which however is not worth, dishes well presented but not well executed. prices above average.

Good lunch restaurant located in the city center of Innsbruck, along the pedestrian Maria-Theresien-Strasse. This place is very lively and crowded with tourists. However, the restaurant is on the first floor and offers a beautiful view of the pedestrian street, its magnificent buildings, and has a good atmosphere. The staff is professional and efficient, the food is Italian and while good, it's nothing too fancy. The menu is a fixed price at lunch, you can choose between 4-5 options.

It wasn’t easy to find the restaurant, it’s not actually inside the shopping centre, but at a separate entrance before it, on the first floor. That said, the food was very good and it made for a great final meal in Innsbruck.

My sister was in town so we decided on a visit to "Das Schindler", one of my favorite Lunch Restaurants in Innsbruck. They serve a fixed lunch menu and you can decide between four different courses, either 2 course or 3 course lunch. There is always a Vegetarian meal available too. After we ordered our beverages, 1 glass of Prosecco and 1 beer and a mineral water, the waiter asked what we had decided on. My sister and I both chose the Shrimp Satay, a delicate appetizer with a hint of spicy Indonesian flavor, shrimps and some delicious veggies. My wife ordered the salad which looked very fresh and she said it tasted scrumptious. As our main course we ordered three different dishes. The traditional "Wiener Schnitzel" and potato salad. The Schnitzel was a pork cutlet. I ordered the Beef Goulash with "Spaetzle" and the meat was incredibly moist and well cooked, the sauce had a touch of mild paprika, just enough, but not too much. I really enjoyed it very much. The grilled Salmon filet was served on black rice and was so tender it melted in the mouth. The total bill for three people, including tips ended up being 90 Euros, well worth the visit and the quality of the food. I always enjoy going to "Das Schindler", however this time there was one thing that kind of bugged me. I am used to excellent service there, but this time the waiter was efficient but very impersonal. That was the only disappointing detail.

Good Wienerschnitzel, the salad and potato sides could definitely use some improvement. The waiter seemed to rush us through in the beginning of our dinner, but as the restaurant became busy the rush decreased. Very good location.

You clearly pay for the restaurant’s location. We are used to fine dining and it was not. All ingredients are fresh and local which is a good point, unfortunately there’s a big issue with seasoning : no salt or pepper in any of the dishes we ordered, everything was very bland. Sorbets were very good but that was the only part of the dessert we enjoyed : the apple cake strongly tasted like egg and the baba au rhum didn’t smell or taste like rhum, it was a simple cake. Waiters didn’t seem very knowledgeable as I asked for a local drink or alcohol and he offered me apero spritz which is Italian

Very nice staff and very good prices. We like this restaurant.

Best restaurant in Innsbruck, by far. The ingredients are sourced. The menu changes a lot, based on what’s available. The dishes are always very tastefull. It’s a nice change to the standard Austrian cuisine. The service is proficient and enthusiastic. The place might get a bit hot in the summer though. We make sure to visit this place every time we are in Innsbruck!

I would recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting Innsbruck. The concept of valuing each element of the dish, and each part of the animal was incredible. The food was fantastic, the flavours complex and interesting. The menu changes very frequently so ingredients are always fresh and in season. It was also nice to see how the staff felt like a family.

The best local food, service, and atmosphere. We tried horse (carpaccio, tartar) for the first time, and the delicious 13 year old cow meat (ribs, neck). Strongly recommend if you look for a food experience that is local and welcoming. They rotate the menu based on the animal they have to offer a unique experience.

As a devoted culinary traveler, dining at die Wilderin felt like savoring the essence of Alpine elegance. Nestled in a quiet lane of Innsbruck’s Old Town, the warm, thoughtfully designed interior—soft lighting, rich wood accents, and modern flair—immediately sets a tone of intimate comfort. I experienced a menu that unfolds like nature’s seasons: perfectly hand-cut beef tartare, delicate chicken croquettes, and succulent pork belly, all elevated by creative plating and genuine local flavor. Every bite resonated with integrity, from the ethically sourced ingredients to the respectful use of whole-animal parts. Service was gracious and mindful—knowledgeable, patient, and deeply proud of what they serve. A well-curated wine list complemented each dish effortlessly. die Wilderin doesn’t just offer a meal—it offers a narrative of place, passion, and intentional hospitality. A must-visit for anyone craving purposeful, unforgettable dining in Innsbruck.

Tourists beware!!! 🛑🛑🛑 Rude from the start. No menu in English and condescending attitude the whole meal for being Canadian. Rushed us to order, insulted my wife's taste in food, waiters left for a smoke and rink halfway through for 30min. Forgot a drink order and then put it on the bill. Staff put in photo. Awful service would not recommend.

The most unforgettable dining experience, with my dog, no reservation, and zero regrets. I stumbled upon this gem after reading the glowing reviews and seeing the impressive rating. I had no reservation, and I came with a dog. The audacity, I know, (lol?) but something told me I had to try it. When I walked in, a kind lady (Claudia) welcomed me and said I could wait about 30 minutes for a spot at the bar. I left my name and stepped out, not expecting much. Still, I called just in case to try and reserve a table for the next day. At first, they said they were fully booked. But then! magic!! Minutes later they called back to let me know a spot had opened, (they knew I was the girl who had come in with the dog earlier)- I returned, and to my surprise, I was given a table instead of the bar. Just me, my dog, and one of the best meals of my life. The menu was in German, but they kindly offered to help. I simply asked for their recommendations. What followed was culinary bliss. The starter? A delicate piece of fish served atop a potato creation, accompanied by zucchini and, wait for it, cucumber ice cream. Yes, cucumber ice cream. I took one bite and suddenly had an existential crisis: how was I ever going to live without this dish again? When I finished, the plate still had some of the sauce, and a lovely young woman Amelie, offered me bread so I could savor every last drop. I almost cried. For the main course, I went bold and chose the Bambi: venison, something I’d never tried before. Claudia would come to tell me the details of the dish etc. Amelie and Claudia took care of me the whole evening with such warmth and attention, I felt like I was in someone’s home. The venison was larger than expected, served with a silky carrot purée, perfectly cooked zucchini, a beautifully balanced risotto, and meat so tender it felt like butter. I wanted dessert, but I was too full to move. Oh! They also brought water for my dog! This was, without a doubt, the best service and meal I’ve had in weeks!! After dining at multiple Michelin-starred restaurants in Paris. What sets this place apart isn’t just the food, but the ethos: they have a deep commitment to sustainability, which only elevates the entire experience. Because that’s what this is, an experience. One that stays with you long after the meal ends. Every bite, every detail, every interaction was worth it. Five stars aren’t enough.

It was absolutely a very pleasant meal - the best one we have had in Innsbruck! The menu is different every day depending on the fresh ingredients they have available so it’s always a surprise and you can definitely feel the passion and dedication. The menu is not in English but the owner explains every dish in detail including the ingredients and how it’s cooked. We ordered 2 starters, beef tartare and duck liver, and 1 main course, marinated chicken with Austrian rice ball. They all taste heavenly and the combination of each dish has a unique flavour. The duck liver is super creamy and smooth with the cranberry jelly served on top that gives a refreshing taste to the dish. Didn’t get a chance to try the wine (I saw there’s a great selection on wine) but the Tyrol beer is also amazing. Highly recommend this cozy restaurant to anyone visiting Innsbruck!

Great food! The most authentic place in Innsbruck. The waitress said that only locals eat there, and it was obvious. We sat with a local man that was 80 years old. The adjacent table was playing card games while having their afternoon coffee.

Great traditional gasthaus in the city centre of Innsbruck. The schnitzel was amazing, so was the boiled beef soup with a cheese dumpling inside we had. The service was quick and the staff was really kind and friendly. Make sure you don't miss it!

Great authentic Austrian food. Great Ambience, amazing staff. We saw a lot of locals eating at the restaurant. Good selection of Schnaps which one must try after the food. For people who do not eat meat there are some vegetarian and vegan options as well. Definitely recommend. The prices are decent as well.

The atmosphere of the restaurant felt really pleasant. The portions were generous — even more than enough — and the food was absolutely delicious. I 100% recommend it!

The food was delicious. The schnitzel offered a truly authentic local taste, and the Kaiserschmarren was a perfect sweet finish to the meal. I recommend having all the traditional food including the drinks - Almdudle

Delicious food, can’t recommend the Antich Trio enough. Tasty, affordable, local food!

Amazing food! Saw lots of locals eat here and I understand why, the food was cooked and seasoned perfectly, the ambiance and service was also very good. Very nice waiters. Would definitely recommend eating here!
