We stopped here on our way to Slovenia. We payed 88 euro for a double room including breakfast. The hotel looks outdated at first, but the rooms are very decent and you can see they are updating their interior. …

My husband and our two sons had just walked 10 miles of the Romantic Road when we arrived at the Flair Hotel Die Post. Our room was very clean. The bathroom is large and modern.  …

We stayed one night at this hotel on our way home from ski-vacation. We arrived late, but the host was ready to prepare a very nice dinner in the restaurant for the 3 of us. And the breakfast next morning was excellent too. The room was clean and comfortable with space enough for all 3. And the location is good - close to the autobahn and with nice views to the castle and the countryside.

We found this hotel last minute and are so impressed. We arrived late and the owner cooked us an unbelievable dinner. Family owned and run. Fantastic view of the hillsides. Modern, clean rooms. I would make a special effort to stay here!
