Basic Apartments downtown

Basic Apartments downtown Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to Basic Apartments downtown on Schlossergasse, you immediately get that “I’m in the real Innsbruck” feeling. This three-star property sits right in the thick of things — I mean, you’re literally in the heart of the old town where locals actually live and work. The building itself has that understated Austrian charm without trying too hard, and honestly, the location score of 9.6 makes perfect sense once you step outside.

Location & Getting Around

You know what’s great about staying here? Everything you want to see in Innsbruck is basically at your doorstep. The colorful houses of the Altstadt, those famous little cafes tucked into medieval corners, the Goldenes Dachl — it’s all within a few minutes’ walk. I’ve stayed in places where you need to take trams or buses to get anywhere interesting, but here you just step out and you’re already there. Couples especially seem to love this setup (they rate the location 9.5), and I can see why — there’s something romantic about wandering these old cobblestone streets together.

The Apartment Experience

The apartment setup works really well if you want more space than a typical hotel room offers. You get that independence to come and go as you please, maybe grab some local groceries and use the kitchenette — which is actually pretty handy when you want a quick coffee in the morning or a late-night snack. The furnishings are clean and functional rather than fancy, but honestly, when you’re spending most of your time exploring the city, that’s perfectly fine.

Breakfast & Local Flavors

Here’s something interesting — they do Italian breakfast, which might sound odd for Austria, but it actually works. Think good coffee, pastries, maybe some lighter options that don’t weigh you down before a day of walking around the mountains or old town. It’s a nice change from the heavy Germanic breakfast spreads you sometimes get, and the quality is solid for what you’re paying at a three-star place.

Why Guests Love It

Look, this is about being exactly where you want to be in Innsbruck without paying premium prices. The 8.5 rating tells the real story: people consistently leave happy because the place delivers on what matters most. You’re steps away from everything, the apartments give you flexibility, and you’re not dealing with tourist-trap pricing just because of the location. For couples especially, there’s something special about having your own little space right in the historic center where you can really feel like you’re living in the city, even if it’s just for a few days.
