Great location (right next to the top of the Hahnenkamm gondola) with stunning views - the terrace is fabulous. Ideal for family or couple, winter ski (you’ll be first on the slopes) or summer hiking or cycling (all the walking and cycling routes start from there). Great dinner and breakfast - high quality hut fare. Very comfortable and clean - service is super friendly. Great value for money.

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.

The location

Stayed in February 2025

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!

I arrived after racing the VerticalUp run to a lovely welcome, food and prosecco. Followed by a real Apres hut party and a comfortable bed for the night. Perfect location a 2 minute walk from the top of the Streif.

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.

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.

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.

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 fire-alarm went off at night, because of a mistake in the kitchen

Good breakfast and cosy situated classic austrian hut

Bathroom and shower could be cleaner and the drinks that come with the dinner are overpriced compared to other restaurants on the mountain. Also ski boots drying rack wasn't warmed up so the boots stayed wet if left there overnight.

very cozy and sweet place, run by a very nice family and feels like home! great dinners included, breakfast is a usual buffet. I loved being on top of the mountain and getting to see sunrise and sunset from it as well as skiing immediately to and out of the door! and as a dog lover i appreciated that the owner has two sweetest labradors :)

Only downside was the price of drinks nearly double what you pay on the mountain when skiing. Cheaper drinks would have meant more money spent

Food was Great

Stayed in December 2022

As long as you know that it's nothing luxury all is good. Food is simple, rooms are rustic. All good if you expect it to be so. Access to tea and coffee in the afternoon would have been nice.

On the mountain. Fantastic setting. Rustic and authentic mountain guesthouse. Ski to the door. Great dining area with local decor and atmosphere. Basic breakfast and dinner included.

Nothing. Just a bit nosy in the early morning, when neighbors going with ski shoes, but that happens at ski !;)

Top location! On the top of the mountain! Amazing view Really nice personal. Thanks for everything!

Coffee could be improved.

Simple but convenient. If you want to get up and on with your day this was just fine.

Stayed in January 2023

Slightly short beds for us that are 194 cm

Great little ski-hut on an easy accessible location. It is rustic but has all the feel of a proper ski-hut for the ski-bums and a likes. Good vibes and welcoming staff makes it a perfect stay if you want a genuine feel of skiing in the 60-70s. Bunk beds and shared toilets and bathrooms add to the feeling and they are all clean and nice.

Stayed in February 2023

Everything was as I expected it for this type of hut, so none of this is meant to be critical, that being said, just make note of a few things: Not much is provided other than a pillows and blanket and you will be sleeping in an open space with other people on a basic cot. Towels are not included and its not exactly easy to find a store that sells them in Kitzbuhel. Getting to town is easy via the Hahnenkammbahn if you need supplies, but during the week you will be stuck on the mountain after 5pm, make sure to keep an eye on the time and check the schedule (runs later on weekends)!

The location is unbeatable, especially during the Hahnenkamm race, it is absolutely the best place you could be. The food was excellent, dinner includes a soup/salad, main course (changes daily) and dessert. Breakfast is continental, but has everything you need before a day of skiing. The staff and dogs are amazing and you never know who you might meet on top of the Hahnenkamm! Overall, incredible views, relaxed vibes, and nightly music and fun easily makes this the most interesting stay in Kitzbuhel.

Breakfast was pretty awful: cold cuts, yogurt, not great coffee. The dinners were fantastic though - probably the best I had in Austria. Hearty and delicious.

Stayed in January 2023

I liked everything. In general this is the perfect place for solo travelers or groups who like to drink a beer and to be among other young people. Don't recommend for families with kids or for people who expect a fancy five star luxury treatment in Kitzbühel.

Breakfast was perfect for skierst who ski on their own and need a refuel just before going on the slope. If you're not expecting a five star á là carte breakfast, this is perfect for you.

The lady in that property was a bit rude and mildly racist.

The view from the place is one of the best that you can get in that area. But you can’t go back to the city in the evening. This stay is only for serious skiers.

Perfect stay. Food was great and the staff was super nice and welcoming, they really made me feel like at home. Amazing view from the hotel. 10/10 recommend, I'd come back!
