The Perger family

Four generations of hospitality in Innsbruck.

What began in 1906 with a hotel on Leipziger Platz is now a family-run group of companies offering hotels, apartments, restaurants and other services in the heart of Innsbruck. The history of the Perger family is characterised by continuous development, personal hospitality and a close connection to the city.
1.
1906 · The Early Years

The Leipziger Hof opens on Leipziger Platz in Innsbruck. Even back then, hospitality, personalised service and the vision of a hotel built to last were the hallmarks of the establishment.

2.
1965 · First generation

Mathilde and Josef Zach Sr. – the grandparents of the current host, Andreas Perger – took over the Leipziger Hof and laid the foundations for the development of the family business.

3.
1974 · Second generation

Karl and Hannelore Perger continued to run the Leipziger Hof, gradually transforming it into a modern city hotel. Additional guest rooms were added, the building underwent extensive modernisation, and it was classified as a 4-star hotel. The original inn evolved into what is now the Defreggerstube restaurant.

4.
1997 · Third generation

The next phase of development began with Petra and Andreas Perger. In the years that followed, projects included the panoramic sauna, extensively refurbished rooms, the Basic Hotel Innsbruck, the Leipziger Hof apartment block, and further investments in comfort and quality.

5.
2019 · Fourth generation

Victoria Perger joins the family business as an assistant to the management. Shortly thereafter, the historic building on Marktgraben is acquired, housing the Basic Apartments Downtown and the first citylocker.store.

2024 sees Victoria’s marriage to Marco Perger—a passionate restaurateur who is already actively involved in the business.

6.
Today

Today, IBK Hotels brings together seven establishments under one roof – including hotels, apartments, restaurants and other services, all centrally located in Innsbruck. With the complete refurbishment of the Leipziger Hof, new suites, air-conditioning installed in the apartment blocks and a second citylocker.store at the main railway station, the company’s history is constantly being written.

In 2026, the fifth generation will be born … the story continues.
