Overview
Pension Nordstern, formerly known as the Strass Garni, is hard to beat if location is your priority. Just a couple of minutes’ walk will take you to the heart of the resort centre, while the Penken gondola is right next door, offering instant access to the slopes.
The hotel itself is simple and no-frills, focusing on comfort and convenience rather than extra facilities. Guests enjoy a continental buffet breakfast each morning in the cozy breakfast room, and evenings can be spent exploring Mayrhofen’s bars and restaurants, all just a short stroll away.
Guest rooms feature traditional Alpine-style décor with light-wood furnishings and patterned fabrics, creating a warm and cosy atmosphere. Each room also has a private balcony, perfect for soaking up the crisp mountain air and enjoying the views.

About Mayrhofen
Mayrhofen skiing and boarding
Mayrhofen is the largest of the resorts covered by the 'Zillertal Superski' pass, with 101km of runs locally, and 227km when you include the Hintertux Glacier. There are two distinct ski areas connected to the town itself. The Ahorn mountain is the smaller of the two and caters very well to beginners and early intermediates, the perfect place to learn and improve in your own space. The resort has invested tens of millions in the infrastructure recently, including the replacement of the Pekenbahn. This has meant access to the extensive Penken slopes is quicker and much more comfortable. No more long queues firts thing in the morning! Skiing on the Penken has something for everyone, including Harakiri, Austria's steepest piste!
Further afield, you can travel along the valley to Hintertux and experience the glacier skiing, incuded on the area lift pass. With a year round snow guarantee, this tops off Mayrhofen as one of Austria's top 5 ski destinations.
Mayrhofen ski resort
As a fully fledged town, rather than a seasonal resort, Mayrhofen is large, vibrant and has the kind of extensive facilities that some smaller Austrian destinations can't match. A huge public leisure centre and excellent sports facilities, as well as a cahrming pedestrianised town centre with extensive shopping, eating and drinking options. All combined with excellent transport links and a Tirolean atmosphere that's hard to beat in winter! You're only an hour from Innsbruck which not only makes for a hassle free transfer, but also opens up day trip possibilities - direct trains depart from the station every hour at peak times.
It's easy to see why Mayrhofen is so highly rated, and attracts so many visitors year after year. A must-do for any serious skier.
