Comfortable and characterful hotel in delightful surroundings.
Pros:

Weissenkirchen is a small village in the beautiful Danube valley, and Ur-Wachau lies at its centre. It is close to great restaurants and vineyards, superb walking, and there is a decent bus service along the valley. You can also join a river cruise here if you wish.
The hotel is fabulous, the rooms are spacious and comfortable, and the style uses local antique furniture which makes it very characterful. Herr and Frau Roisl are excellent hosts, laying on a superb buffet breakfast, and very happy to make recommendations.

Cons:

We enjoyed everything about Ur-Wachau. Parking in the village is limited so, if you can, it’s a good idea to rent some garage space from the hotel.

Ein Wohlfühlort zum wiederkommen.
Pros:

Das Frühstück war ausgezeichnet, jeder Wunsch wurde erfüllt. Von Obst über selbstgemachte Antipasti Fisch Käse.

Die Lage im Zentrum von Weißenkirchen ist ausgezeichnet. Ein historisches Haus aus dem 15 Jahrhundert. Sensibel und doch modern renoviert. Tolle alte Möbel, detailgetreue renovierte und Restaurierte.

Cons:

Uns ist nichts negatives aufgefallen.

Pros:

A Truly Magical Stay – Warm, Charming, and Impeccably Clean

Hotel Ur-Wachau is nothing short of amazing. From the moment we arrived, we felt wrapped in warmth and elegance. The charm of the historic building, the attention to detail in every corner, and the genuine hospitality make it a rare gem.
The rooms are spotless—truly pristine. I even sat in the beautiful breakfast room trying to spot anything made of plastic, just out of curiosity, and found nothing. Everything is thoughtfully chosen, beautifully maintained, and deeply authentic.
Breakfast was a highlight—local flavors, homemade delicacies, and served in what feels like a fairytale chapel. The whole experience radiates care and intention.

If you’re looking for a place that’s serene, inspiring, and truly sustainable, look no further. I can’t recommend it enough. Just wow.

Cons:

Nothing

Elegant hotel for a relaxing stay in the Wachau
Pros:

Lovely, friendly hotel in the perfect location for exploring all of Weissenkirchen on foot. Would also be a great base for bicycle touring. There are many Heuriger and restaurants within a short walk of the hotel. The lovely hotel owners were always on site and provided a generous and delicious breakfast. The hotel itself is in a historic building.
