I can be short about the trip towards Austria. The Hyper stopped working, and I had to go and get a rental car to drive to the Alps. What a shame.
But I had to tell about this hotel we stayed in. It was just fantastic. Here's the link:
http://www.hotel-schoenauerhof.com/
Kai and Elke (and all others) were great hosts.
There's a garage, only for bikes.
A workshop so that you can screw your HS completely apart.
There's a sauna.
Every room has its own bathroom, toilet, sattelite tv, balcony, double bed, amazing view,...
Food is very tasty and if you're allergic to something (I have a lactose allergy), you just ask and they won't make any fuss.
There are guided tours.
You can rent a bike (like I had to, since my wonderful Italian was somewhere in Germany): Honda African Twin, Triumph Tiger Explorer XC and from July they'll be a Triumph testing center.
Which means that nearly every Triumph model'll be available to demo.
There's also a Monster, but I'll doubt you'll be riding it, since its the bike from Elke (the owner).
You can also rent a BMW, from a shop 1h drive.
And best of all, you're in the middle of the Alps, at driving range from Stelvio, Kaunertaler Gletscher, Liechtenstein, Switserland, Italy, Germany, Garmisch, and all biker heaven roads.
So if you're looking for a biker friendly hotel in Western Austria, you have found your destination.
