Situated in the heart of Dürnstein, it was a perfect place to stay. The room was clean and spacious, the staff were very friendly and the dinner was unforgettable. The most surprising thing was that it was so quiet, even though the street was full of tourists. If you want to make the most of your holiday in the Wachau, it's a good idea to book a room here. The price was reasonable considering the expensive hotels in Vienna.

The location was perfect, views (esp from room 23) are stunning … love the rumble of the Danube River. The restaurant food was true fine dining and very friendly serving staff. We travel often and 2 night wasn’t long enough. We rented e-bikes and road from town to town stopping in for wine tastings at local shops and restaurants. Great hiking directly from the hotel. Can’t wait to return

Spacious, clean, grand hotel on the shore of the Danube. We opted for a room with a view of the river and are quite glad we did. Our room was spacious with good lighting and nice water pressure. The beds were a bit more firm than we like, but we couldn't call them "uncomfortable" as that can be very subjective. As with many hotels in Europe, there is no air conditioning. However, thanks to the thick stone walls, you can get by with a fan if use your shades and shutters wisely on hot days. Breakfast was one of the best, with hot food (bacon, scrambled eggs, sausage), fresh fruit, yogurts, meat, cheese, pastries and more, served in bright, spacious dining rooms. The town of Dürnstein itself is small and can be quite full of tourists during the day. That there is plenty of free parking at the hotel is a wonderful benefit. Because it is located in a small town, there is a handful of restaurants and bars, if you don't want to eat at the hotel's restaurant. This was an excellent base from which we explored the Wachau valley.

Stayed on a Friday night in mid-August. Excellent location, beautiful balcony views. Room is very nice, although tub/shower is on the small side. Driving in is interesting, since you will need to drive down the narrow, ancient, crowded streets of Durnstein between and among the many pedestrians and bikers to reach the hotel parking. It's fine, just go slow and smile. Once you arrive, hotel parking is not bad, we found a spot just a few steps from the main entrance. Staff was very helpful and nice. The hotel restaurant has patio seating next to the Danube which is fantastic. I had the veal shallots, which were very tasty. Breakfast was ok. Not bad, just not great like dinner. Hiked up to the Castle Durnstein ruins (where Richard the Lionhearted held captive in 1192) -- about a 20 - 30 minute uphill walk from the hotel. Not hard core hiking, but fairly steep in a couple of spots. Ruins provide an amazing view of the valley and town below. Definitely have a poppy cake and some gelato or ice cream at one of the town cafes. Also, the town is overflowing with apricot wine and liqueur and nectar (of course), so drink up. Only an hour or so drive (in our rental car) from Vienna. Definitely recommend, we had a great time.

This is a charming hotel, full of character and surprisingly extensive. My room was spacious, beautifully furnished and had a view of the Danube. The hotel is a bit of a maze but that’s part of its charm. The breakfast was extensive and very good.

We had very nice stay with our 3 year old child. Our room overlooked garden and was very quiet. Pillows and beds are super comfortable Was very surprised to find working fireplace in the evening in the hall
