Innsbruck is a great place to stay if you like the mountains. It's incredibly expensive, therfore only 4 stars, but you can be sure, that everything you buy, eat, do is out of good quality. The coffee is tasty and people are friendly, I felt very safe. If you are in a budget, avoid Innsbruck! If not, enjoy :)

I only spent a day/night there but the scenery is stunning from the whole town. You can walk along the river or head to the little mall where there's a rooftop bar with 360 degree views, good day or night. I didn't catch the cable car up to the mountain top but my friend did and she loved it! Cheaper for students in the afternoon I think. I hiked a mountain looking for a spot to boulder which I didn't have time to climb in the end but it was still lovely. Splashed myself in the mountains streamz, picked wild cherries and oregano and got a lift from a local part way up the hill with my trusty thumb! Also found a great hostel, very cosy and cheap, above cafe munding, I would highly recommend.

I always feel very safe in Innsbruck. I love to ski, and the city is perfect for that. What I love is that you can see the mountains all around the city. I was cycling, but I believe there is a train connection.

Small Town, not too busy but very beautiful. Not really scared of walking alone at night but of course as any woman we always have nit the best feeling when walking alone. All in all really save for women and the residents are very kind and ready to help.

As in every City, you could meet some weird creatures, especially at the Train Station, or you read about criminal Situations in the newspaper, but I mostly feel really sage, because there is also always sone police car around, also at night, that makes you feel more save

You can go everywhere because we have so many young people living here. Everything looks cute so you feel safe. I like the river and how I can sit there without feeling watched. You can always go into the mountains, into the park or drink a coffe.
