Weisses Rössl

Innsbruck


An antique rocking horse greets you at this 16th-century guesthouse. The vaulted entrance leads up to spacious rooms, revamped with blonde wood, earthy hues and crisp white linen. The owner is a keen hunter and the restaurant (mains €12 to €31) has a predominantly meaty menu.
