Beautiful property. Enjoyed the pool, bicycles, and food. Staff was pleasant and helpful. Had to walk up and then down some steps to get to our room, which wasn’t great with a big bag or for my husband’s knees.

The restaurant in the hotel is excellent and is reason in and by itself to stay at the hotel. Big thank you to the chefs and to the sommelier Kevin,who for such a young man was so proficient at his job and affable. Must also mention the breakfast as being generous in its offerings and of high quality. The hotel has a fantastic pool and is perfectly positioned next to the abbey and in the middle of town. Dining at the hotel’s restaurant with a direct elevated view of the Danube and its surroundings was something very special. Our thanks to the hotel owner and staff.

The hotel is a musty old building surrounded by musty antiques. If you enjoy nostalgia this is your place. If you enjoy crisp and clean accommodations with modern amenities look elsewhere. The staff was excellent.

We loved our 3-night stay in this charming historic hotel! We had a suite perfect for our family of four, a welcome respite after a long flight from the United States. Breakfast was lovely and the staff were very welcoming and friendly. Be sure to take advantage of the bike rentals to ride along the path by the river, incredible views! We would love to return one day!

historic hotel in charming Durnstein

We had a wonderful stay in this lovely inn. Our room was spacious and comfortable. I could have stayed in all day to enjoy the view of the Danube. Dinner on the terrace was excellent and featured fresh and seasonal dishes. The breakfast buffet offered excellent variety and quality too.

Hotel is on beautiful grounds. Room was lovely and clean. It was very nice to have a nice outdoor balcony. Durnstein and the Wachau Valley is absolutely stunning. We rented bikes from the hotel for our three days while at the hotel....it was fantastic exploring the area, the bike paths are great! Only complaint is that the rooms do not have air conditioning and the weather was very hot....had to keep the sliding door open and because there was no screen it waa hard to keep flies out.
