The rooms in the Gluck Auf were a bit small, but you don't stay in your room in Austria.
The breakfast was superb,seemingly unlimited rolls were on offer, and a good selection of cheese, meats and other fillings. Dinner was taken in the village centre...

The breakfast was superb,seemingly unlimited rolls were on offer, and a good selection of cheese, meats and other fillings. Dinner was taken in the village centre 10 minutes walk away at the Tyrol cafe, the 3 course meals were ok.5-10 minutes slow walk down the road were the 2 cable cars, The Penkenbahn and Ahornbahn, both cost 14.40 euros, or 12.90 with a 'guestcard' which is automatically given to you when you check in to your accommodation.If you go on a clear day the views from both the cable car stations are fantastic, and there are signposted walks to follow too.
In Mayrhofen itself there is not a lot to do,especially at night, but it was the last week of summer season, apparently (18/9 - 25/9)and the village centre was very quiet at night(good)We went on 2 excursions, 1 to Lake Garda via the Brenner Pass(a 6am start)which was hot and crowded,although the boat trip across the lake itself was nice.And a trip to Krimml waterfall which was by far the better trip of the 2, coming back via Kitzbuhel.These were booked in the resort at the Ingham's welcome meeting, i was surprised that you were not discouraged to use the local transport, but even given timetables which made a refreshing change.One last point,in some cases the excursions are cheaper than using public transport,Innsbruck being just one example.
We had a great time in Austria and would recommend it to anyone who likes mountain scenery.
