Do not drive into Mayrhofen. Turn for Brandberg before the town, take the tunnel, cross the wooden bridge, and the Ziller is suddenly beside the door at Zillergrund 903. Christian and Melanie Pfister, the fifth generation on this site, reopened the old Alpin Lodge in December 2021 as three lodges tied together by bridges, with check-in in a sky atrium. Two twenty-five-metre pools sit on the roof.

History
ZillergrundRock is the Pfister family's rebuild of Alpin Lodge Das Zillergrund, which had stood in the side valley above Mayrhofen. Christian and Melanie Pfister, who describe themselves as the fifth generation, reopened it in December 2021. Arthur Dalsass and Viva Bauabwicklung handled the architecture. Köck & Bachler did the interiors. New bridges link three lodges. A sky atrium and two 25-metre rooftop pools sit on the new roofscape. Project managers Achammer+Breitenberger date the construction from spring 2021 to winter 2021.
The setting
Zillergrund 903, 6290 Mayrhofen. The hotel's own directions say not to enter Mayrhofen: turn toward Brandberg and the Zillergrund, go through the Brandberg tunnel, cross the wooden bridge, and the house is about 300 metres later. Postal town is still Mayrhofen. The centre of the resort is about four kilometres back down the valley. Mayrhofen station is 4.1 km.
