Historisches Ambiente mit aktuellem Komfort und sehr freundlichem Personal
Pros:

Lage am Rande der Altstadt. Hotel ist urig altmodisch, TV und Kapsel Kaffeemaschine im Zimmer sind aktuell, das Badezimmer war neu gemacht, ausser der Duschwanne. Das Zimmer lag zum Innenhof. Es war total ruhig innen wie außen, trotz Fußball WM Spiel von 🇦🇹. Gebucht für eine Person bekam ich ein Doppelzimmer mit einem dritten Bett. Das Zimmer war entsprechend sehr groß. Frühstücken war ich in der Stadt. Personal war sehr freundlich. Gerne beim nächsten Klagenfurt Besuch wieder.

Cons:

Wenn schon Badrenovierung, dann bitte komplett. Duschwanne wurde nicht getauscht. Stört nur die Optik.

Retro-Reise mit Freundlichkeit und Charme
Pros:

Wenn man das Hotel betritt erlebt man eine Zeitreise: Viele alte Bilder mit Goldrahmen, Polstermöbel, und der Stil auf rustikal. Keine Spur vom heutigen Tourismus. Man wird so freundlich und hilfsbereit behandelt und nur die Chefin und eine Helferin schaffen das ! Das Frühstück ist akzeptabel und der Preis liegt im akzeptablen Bereich. Ich würde jederzeit wieder einchecken !

Cons:

Es gibt nichts

Pros:

A truly memorable stay in Klagenfurt.

Cityhotel Ratheiser offers much more than just accommodation—it provides a genuine local experience. The location is perfect: right next to the historic center and the beautiful old town, yet situated in a quiet and peaceful neighborhood.

The hotel itself is a charming historical building, lovingly decorated with photographs, furniture, and memorabilia from Imperial Austria, creating a unique atmosphere that reflects the history and character of the country.

What made our stay truly exceptional, however, were the two ladies at the hotel. Their kindness, hospitality, and willingness to help with every detail made us feel less like hotel guests and more like personal guests in their home. Their warmth and genuine care created an experience that is increasingly rare to find.

I wholeheartedly recommend Cityhotel Ratheiser to anyone visiting Klagenfurt—not only for its excellent location and beautiful historic character, but for the wonderful hospitality that makes a stay there truly special.

Pros:

Skaists interjers, plašs numuriņš un milzīga vannasistabā. Laipns un atsaucīgs personāls.

Cons:

Numurā nav ne dzeramā ūdens, ne tējas.
Telefonu jālādē vannasistabā, jo tur ir četras rozetes, guļamistabā - nevienas.

More than a hotel, like a museum
Pros:

A wonderful hotel with a truly unique atmosphere. It felt like more than just a hotel—it was like staying inside a museum, full of beauty and character. The staff were very, very nice, welcoming, and helpful. I would definitely recommend it.

Cons:

I would say the breakfast could be better. On some days, the selection was limited, with mainly pork salami available. Also, croissants were not available every day—some days they were there, and some days they were not. More variety would make the breakfast better.

Pros:

Dieses Hotel ist schon ein sehr altes oder meines Erachtens schon ein nahezu historisches Gebäude! Mir persönlich gefällt es sehr gut wenn es noch solche traditionelle Unterkünfte gibt, und nicht immer alles modernisiert wird!
Die Besitzerin war sehr bemüht und sehr freundlich preis-Leistungsverhältnis war top Wir hatten alles was wir brauchten! Zu Fuß ins Zentrum sind es nur ein paar Minuten und zum Strandbad mit dem Fahrrad brauchten wir 17 Minuten! Wir verbleiben 3 Nächte!
unser Zimmer hatte zwar keine besondere Aussicht, aber für unseren Zweck war es vollkommen ausreichend und es gab sogar extra eine kleine Küche die mit dem notwendigsten ausgestattet war!
Wir kommen gerne wieder!
