We stayed here before our river cruise. Very nice hotel, rooms and facilities wonderful. Very good breakfast with small deficiencies (spoon for cereal took a while). We also used the shuttle bus to the ship, which was fine too.

Here, I have to say, everything is perfect. We don't know how it could be better. Overall, it more than lives up to the four stars.20 minutes along the Danube from the train station to the hotel. Service at all levels very attentive, friendly and polite! The room was exactly like the photos online, with a view of the Danube, perfect! We immediately felt comfortable, also because of the cleanliness! Breakfast takes into account everything we want. Thank you for the great time, we will definitely come back again, then for longer.

The location of the hotel directly on the Danube and in the old town is ideal. The newer parts of the city can also be reached quickly. The excursion boats leave almost directly in front of the house. …

Very nice room with lots of extras (including radio in the bathroom), very comfortable bed with a large selection of pillows, perfect blackout options. Breakfast is also very good, including a great selection of cream cheese and on Sundays including Kaiserschmarrn. Mini drawbacks: The fruit salad had a very strange taste (not freshly prepared?) and the room location. The neighbor's balcony was directly at the level of my window. That was a bit irritating.

We had booked an overnight stay. The room was very nice, breakfast was very tasty and plentiful. Homemade jam was very tasty and the staff was very friendly and accommodating. Highly recommended
