Mayrhofen — Where to stay

There's a diverse spread of places to stay in Mayrhofen but don't expect too many catered chalets. If you visit in low season you'll be able to find some real bargains - the tourist office is a great resource for last minute discounts.

Self-catered apartments and plush hotels

Mayrhofen is a fully functional town, with plenty of accommodation available ranging from small self-catered studios to plush hotels. With the high number of places to stay it shouldn’t be too difficult to find a bargain in the low season or to negotiate unusual dates for a short break. Perhaps the biggest disappointment is that given the size of the resort there are very few catered chalets, but the friendly English-run Haus Luxus offers reasonable half-board prices in a well-situated contemporary chalet. If you can afford a stay in one of the many excellent hotels you will find service standards very high. The 3-star Garni is recently renovated and is in a very convenient spot whilst the Landhotel Denggerhof is the best choice if you wish to be pampered. 

Try the tourist office for great deals

The tourist office here is more helpful than in a lot of other resorts and is a good starting point when looking for last-minute bargains. They've saved our skin many times and can recommend plenty of good self-catering options. Just beware if you are arriving on Saturday, the shops all close at lunchtime and don't open at all on Sunday! 

Cheaper accomodation outside Mayrhofen

The small villages surrounding Mayrhofen offer slightly cheaper accommodation, however the ski bus stops running at 5pm although the Zillertalbahn offers an hourly train or coach service until about 10pm. If you are on a very tight budget take a look at the Dutch hostel Saiki just outside the town (10 minute walk) where a bed costs as little as €15 per night and breakfast can be added for €5.
