(Lenox862) I did some hiking in Mayrhofen, Austria and we finally stopped at Villa Knauer, a hotel garni. The cost was 350 OS (OS being the symbol for Austrian Schilling) and amounted to $26-27 per person, per night. The building, like most buildings here, had lots of wood, inside and out, and had flower boxes on the balcony. The rooms had one king bed, shower, toilet, TV, telephone, and were smallish, but adequate. No swimming pool at the property, but there is a public pool about one block away. From the village, you can take a cable car to the summit and hike around on top, or for a strenuous hike, ride up and hike down. I did that in about 8 exhausting hours. The hotel location is 1½ blocks from the main street, and 4 blocks from the cable car...an excellent location in my opinion.
