Pros:

Gute Anbindung zum Radweg.

Cons:

Für den Preis kleines Doppelzimmer und leider abgewohnt. Frühstücksbuffet sehr gedrängt.
Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis fraglich.

Dinner service staff was our only negative. Everything else was incredible.
Cons:

Service staff in resturant during dinner repeatly ignored us. Didnt have a specfic server...never came back to get additional drink or food orders. We tried to flag them down and were totally ignored. We finally went to find someone to help...even then it took over 20 minutes for someone to come to our table. This only happened during dinner service. Breakfast and bar/snack service was excellent.

Pros:

Die Zimmer und das Frühstücksbuffet waren hervorragend.

Leider mussten wir sehr lange auf unser Abendessen warten.

Pros:

Der Spa Bereich ist großartig! Er ist groß, schön gestaltet und sehr ruhig.

Cons:

In den älteren Zimmern sind leider noch Teppichböden. Für Allergiker wie mich, ist das problematisch.

Pros:

Unser riesiges Genusszimmer war wirklich beeindruckend, genauso der Balkon mit Blick auf die Donau. Zommer mit sehr angenehmem Raumklima, gute Betten, reichhaltigens Frühstück, Pool im 5. Stock und Ruheräume, tolles WC

Cons:

Wir wollten früher einchecken, da wir in Spitz geheiratet haben, wäre auch mit der Early Check-In möglich gewesen, doch 30 Euro pro Person war uns dann doch zu viel.

Byłem tylko jedną noc, przejazdem. Ale komfort mnie zaskoczył. No a śniadanie- przebogate!
Pros:

To komfortowy hotel z pięknym widokiem z balkonu na Dürnstein ( zwłaszcza wieczorem). Odkryty basen z podgrzewaną wodą- bajka!
