About Innsbruck

Visit Innsbruck
Innsbruck is a beautiful city in Austria, with plenty of sites to see and is very close to both the Italian and the city of Munich in Germany. The cheap hotels here appeal to many people because it is near to all these different cities in different countries and is also close to some really beautiful landscapes, such as Brenner Pass. This is a valley that travels through the Alps and is truly lovely to look at and very picturesque. The city of Innsbruck is best known for hosting the winter olympics in 1964 and 1976. The city is truly regarded as a centre for winter sports, it has also hosted two paralympic winter games, in 1984 and 1988 and in addition to this, has hosted the first ever Youth Winter Olympics most recently in 2012.

Accessibilty
The centre of Innsbruck is just 2.5 miles from the Innsbruck airport, which is also known as Kranebitten Airport. This makes it easily accessible for tourists but you will most likely need a rental car when you get there. This is because many of the attractions and activities lie outside the city centre.

Activities
Innsbruck is regarded as one of Europes most tranquill and quaint cities and it truly does have a lot of things you can do. The Tyrolean folk art museum is definitely worth a visit. This museum plays hosts to many pieces of famous folk art and shows you the history and progression of folk art. The 15th century Imperial palace is truly unforgettable. The famous golden roof of Maximilliam I is really impressive and you will find yourself mesemerised with the building in absolutely no time.

Surroundings
The business of the city is not all you will have come here for. The wonderful countryside that surrounds Innsbruck is well worth a visit, but you will need a car. Renting a car has never been easier, with companies like Rent.it, their service takes the pressure off you having to find the best deal and they do it all for you.
