Nearest station is landeck. On the main Vienna to Zurich line. Then a bus up the valley, about an hour I think.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

@PeterGee, Ötztal Bahnhof is the stop for Ötztal. Landeck is the station for Serfus/Fiss and Kappl.
For the original poster - Train to Imst or Ötztal Bahnhof from Munich, then you take a bus or a taxi up to the location of your hotel. For 6 of you a shared taxi should be OK. Alternatively you can contact one of the several transfer companies at Munich Airport to see what it will cost.

@Samerberg Sue, Ischgl not Ötztal 
I'm pretty certain Landeck station is the one you want @Angus og, then a bus. I'm not sure if there are busses directly from Munich to Ischgl? For 6 of you I'd be tempted to look at private transfers as getting to Ischgl on public transport involves several changes and can be a bit of a faff.

@Angus og, as above trains great but a faff with gear, how about a hire mini bus? 2.5 hours airport to the slopes, shared between 6 is cheapest way 50-60€ fuel round trip plus hire at say £220, £45pp plus great to have transport for that sneaky trip round to St Anton for the day!

Or rent a car. We're going there from Friedrichshafen, and a VW Passat estate was £185 for the week. A minivan (VW Touran etc) was about the same.

@Harry Flashman, Agreed, I've just booked a VW Golf with winter tyres for an 8 day hire from MUC wk1 February, 2400km allowance £132......Enterprise via Holiday Autos, no brainer IMO.
@lmu2002, Done it loads of times, agreed nice and cheap but changing is hassle, and humping the gear/ skis etc about not much fun. I actually prefer to go the long anticlock way round via Bregenz, changing there rather than the clockwise Munchen Ost/ Rosenheim/ Innsbruck journey. Saturdays in Germany on trains ain't funny.

Bus was pretty easy and on time. (Unlike the swiss train that broke down between geneva and Zurich, shock, horror) Bus driver spoke little English, but that was ok. Had a proper luggage locker underneath so do this this is a good option.
