Reviews and Ratings
I had a lovely stay at this beautifully maintained historical property by the Danube. The owners were gracious and provided excellent service, making my experience memorable. However, the dining options were limited as there are no facilities for lunch or dinner, and I found the breakfast to be quite basic compared to other places I've stayed. The location is perfect for exploring nearby gems like Durnstein, though the lack of nearby restaurants can be inconvenient.
The hotel is a beautifully preserved historic building in the heart of the Wachau region, offering a unique medieval atmosphere. The garden and sauna add a lovely touch to the experience, and the breakfast features delicious homemade options. However, it's a bit pricey for a bed and breakfast without more extensive amenities. Additionally, the dining options nearby are limited, which could be a drawback for some guests.
I had a wonderful time at this hotel, enjoying its rich historical charm and beautiful setting. The breakfast was truly a standout, with local specialties that I couldn't get enough of. The rooms were clean, but they could feel a bit smaller than what one might expect. While there were no lunch or dinner options available on-site, the delightful local produce sampling made up for it. Overall, a lovely experience with a few minor areas for improvement.
I had a wonderful stay at this historic hotel, which offered a unique charm and beautiful views over the Danube. The room was comfortable, though not very large, and the breakfast was impressive with a variety of options. The garden was stunning, especially the pool area that felt like a natural pond. However, the absence of lunch and dinner options was a downside, and sound insulation could be improved.
I recently stayed at a charming hotel nestled in the beautiful Wachau region. The historical ambiance really took me back in time, and the meticulously maintained gardens were a delight. The breakfast featured local specialties, which was a highlight of my stay. However, the absence of lunch and dinner options was a bit disappointing, as I had to venture out for meals.
