“Nothing like the web or brochure”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 April 2010

We booked this after looking at the web and the reviews here, and felt happy to go there. Unfortunately on arrival we were put into room 106, which is furbished the same as the day the hotel was built, dirty, dark and rather small with a balcony at ground level overlooking the apres ski bar, and its noise and loud music. The shower was mouldy, the sink cracked, the toilet was villeroy and boch with a scabby plastic seat. The bed was uncomfortable and squeaked with the slightest movement. Complaints about the room were met with the response, that we were allocated it as our ski company (Neilsons) paid less. so thats the cheap rooms. Positives - the food was good, but service patchy. Bar no atmosphere or too much in the apres bar. Smoking is allowed in the bar - good if you are that type, not if you are a non smoker as it it unventilated and heavy. The staff were sometimes rude and unhelpful. It is a good location for the ski lifts and boot room is always warm - so if you can hack the negatives you can sleep eat and drink here , but I ask why when Mayhofen has so much better (it is our 5th time there) and location is not really important - with buses in plentiful supply.

“Great hotel near to ski lifts”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 February 2010

Very good quality hotel should be 4 star. Food was excellent as was the friendly service. Only issue was with the noise from the disco/bar but boots ear plugs were perfect for me I did n't here a thing. The spar was great for tired bodies and feet.
Thoroughly recommend it.

“No hesitation in recommending this hotel - had a really good holiday.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 September 2009

We are just back from a week in Mayrhofen staying at the hotel Brucke. We had a really good holiday, Mayrhofen is an excellent destination. A bustling holiday village with lots to do for all abilities.
Hotel Brucke is located in an ideal position for the two lifts in the village so for a skiing holiday would be perfect (we were there for walking in the summer).
We were happy with our room which was furnished in traditional style. It was comfortable, had a safe and had lots of storage, although if you like a bath perhaps you should ask for a room with a bath as ours had a shower cubicle not a bath (we prefer a shower anyway). I asked for extra pillows which were delivered to our room in no time. Towels were changed every day. We took our little kettle with us for bedtime drinks.
We have no complaints about the food. Breakfast consisted of the usual continental choices plus scrambled egg, bacon and boiled eggs. Dinner, as has been said on here, was soup for starter, salad buffet, a choice of 3 main courses (1 being a vegetarian choice) and a sweet (no choice but usually quite nice). We had no complaints about the meals the whole week and some of the sauces on the meat were very nice. You paid for drinks at the end of your meal rather than charging them to your room.
I must comment about the noise. There was very loud live music on 4 nights out of our 7 night stay coming from the covered area attached to the hotel. It was really VERY loud in our room, but it started while we were away having dinner and stopped about 10.30pm so it didn't keep us awake. Glad it didn't go on until the early hours. We had a look in one evening at the live entertainment and it had a real party atmosphere with everyone enjoying themselves so if that is your thing then this could be the ideal spot for your holiday. The disco situated under the hotel was not open during our stay so it was not a problem. I expect in the skiing season the disco will be a popular spot so noise may be an issue. The hotel garden was not very well kept and didn't look like an ideal spot for relaxing but we didn't use it. There was a beautiful sauna area located on the first floor of the hotel (accessed by your room entry card). We just had a look but didn't use it, it was very nicely done out - more 5 star than 3 star.
We bought the Z Activecard while we were in Mayrhofen. It cost 48 Euros for 6 days and was excellent value for money. You can use it to go up and down in the cable cars (once per day) and it gives unlimited use on the train and buses in the area (as well as a entry to a few other things, including the village outdoor/indoor swimming pool). We found it very handy not having to sort out cash every time you went anywhere. It really paid for itself in the first few days.
We really enjoyed our holiday in Mayrhofen and our stay in the Hotel Brucke so have no hesitation in recommending it.

“Decent, central place to stay”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 February 2009

Stayed here with a mate for a budget snowboard holiday, and would recommend it. But there are some things worth realizing before booking here.

The Good:

-The location is great. It's a 2 minute walk to both the Penken and Ahorn lifts, so you don't have to mess about with buses unless you're going to Hintertux or somewhere else in the Ziller valley.
-It's got a nice spa area which was a surprise for a relatively budget place. It's got 3 saunas, a steam room, and these hot and cold pools for your feet which are really nice after the slopes. However, most people tend to get naked for the sauna/steam, so it's not one for the shy! For the foot treatment bit and comfy chill out area in there, you can drape yourself in a towel.
-The rooms are clean and comfortable enough. You've got a TV with lots of channels, one BBC channel and MTV are in English, the rest is German, but it's better than nothing. You've also got a balcony with chair/table etc.
-We were on half board, and the food was really quite good. Austrian food probably doesn't have the best rep in the world, but it was tasty hearty stuff. Just what you want after a day on the piste. You get a soup, salad bar, a choice of three mains and a desert. It's pretty meat orientated, didn't see fish on the menu once, but good food all the same. Breakfast was a range of eggs and bacon, plus toast/cereals/fruit/meat/cheese etc.

The Dodgy:

-This isn't necessarily a dodgy, as it depends what you're after, but the hotel is associated with two of the liveliest apres ski bars in town. One of them is set a bit apart from the hotel called Bruck 'n' Stadl, and is on from about 4pm-8pm. It's a fantastic place to pile in after the slopes for some cheesy Europop and Jagerbombs. The other place is a club in the basement of the hotel open from about 10pm-5am. Unfortunately, despite requesting a room away from this, we were put right on top of it, and kept awake most nights. You couldn't hear the club, but it was people coming/going/shrieking in the street that was the problem, particularly as the room was very hot and we had to have the balcony door open a bit in order not to suffocate. We were in room 111 for the record. So my advice would be to get as far away from this room as possible in order to have a good nights sleep.

-Beds are a double frame with twin mattresses on top. You can't move the beds apart if you're mates sharing, but equally it's not a double mattress for couples. So whilst they are comfortable, they're not ideal.

-I don't think they really cleaned the rooms properly all that often, and we didn't get fresh towels every day either. One day, I had just left the hotel, but realised I'd forgotten my gloves, so went back to the room to get them, and they had already been in and done the room in 2mins flat. All they do is straighten the duvet and leave really.

Conclusion:

It's a decent place to stay. You can certainly do far worse. But I would really try and get away from the club underneath in order to have a good nights sleep. I also wouldn't necessarily recommend this for people with children due to the nightlife activities. And don't expect miracles from the room itself. But to be honest, if you're just after a relatively budget but comfortable option, this is pretty good, particularly due to the location right near the lifts and the hearty food.

“Nice snow hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 December 2008

We booked a snowboarding package through First Choice and chose the Brucke based on the tripadvisor reviews. The main thing that we were worried about before going was the apparent noise from the hotel disco - we did not find this a problem at all! We stayed on the other side of the hotel to the disco, but still on the first floor, and couldn't hear any noise from the hotel. We were right outside an apres ski bar that was next to the hotel, but this music was finished between 8-9pm each night - definitely not a problem!

The location was great - just a 3 minute walk to the Penkenbahn, and a 2 minute walk to the Ahornbahn - perfect for those going up to the slopes. Also, the hotel has a free boot/board/ski storage room, which was great to store all of our gear. On the first floor, there's a great sauna/steam/relaxation area that opens from 4:30pm each afternoon. After a day on the slopes, the steam room was our definite favourite :)

We found the food fairly good - sometimes things were very salty but I think this is more of a country-wide problem rather than something hotel-specific. Each night you have a soup, a salad buffet, one of three main courses, and a dessert. The choices were fairly good with our only problem being that one of our friends was a vegetarian who received quite limited and bland food. The restaurant staff were lovely, but the front desk staff were quite abrupt and less informative.

Overall, we had a lovely stay and would probably come back.
