Beautiful place, rooms are modest but clean and comfortable. Garden and restaurant overlooking Danube is marvelous. Food in restaurant is delicious.

Smell of local raw sewage would occasionally permeate from river area, which was challenging at night when you have to leave the windows open for circulation. Also detracted from an otherwise terrific, romantic dinner.

Excellent and unique facility. Museum-like art everywhere, interesting local history and activities (boating on the Danube, shops in town, visiting churches, visiting nearby Melk Abbey). Good onsite breakfast and dinner option. Romantic dinner setting. Good size room with sitting area and good size bathroom; exceed most European-sized bathrooms, great amenities. Extremely clean.

The hotel was quaint and filled with antiques. The rooms were clean and a good size. The pool was a real treat! It was hot and the room had a fan which was a bonus. The breakfast buffet was great!

The hotel furniture in the room was not in keeping with the Austrian period building. The bathroon had cheap fixtures.

The breakfast was typical European style not enough green vegetables but plenty of carbohydrates. Pretty and unusual decor in th breakfast room

I have absolutely no complaints!

It was so magical! I visited Dürnstein 36 years ago when I was pregnant with my son and had lunch on the terrace of this hotel and never forgot it. I lived in Asia for years afterwards & travelled all over the world & forgot the name of the town. I always dreamed of returning & spending a night at that hotel. I was finally able to return with my husband, my son who is now a man, and his lovely wife. I only wish we could have stayed longer. Durnstein is like Brigadoon, it has stood still in time & the hotel was as good or better than I remembered. It’s a magical treat! The beds, the food, the ambience! I have no words. It was an unusually cold summer so we couldn’t use the incredible swimming pool, but we had apricot liqueur in the evening by the fire in the elegant fireplace of the living room. It was one of the best days of my life!

I actually liked most things, though the restaurant for dinner was overpriced.

Amazing location and traditional look. I enjoyed working in the garden, place to hide. Breakfasts were great.

The hotel is a historical building that used to be serve as an Abby. It is such a beautiful building decorated with historical artifacts. The gardens and the restaurant although understated, are beautiful with view of the Danube river and vineyards all around. We hired bikes from the hotel and there are so many bike routes to take to go to nearby villages. or simple ride by the river.

The lack of air conditioning is a big down side. we were on the third floor, during a week where it was actually not too hot (28-30°c), and it was pretty unbearable. there was just a cheap fan which was a bit rubbish. Even if you don’t want to install air con, it would be good to have a better fan or small cooling unit in the room. It’s meant to be 35°c next week and I feel for anyone staying in the room. Guest comfort has to be a higher priority, I’ve seen other reviews fobbed off with excuses for not having air con but there are alternatives. Management are located on the ground floor and might not realise how hot it gets on the third floor. Not good enough for an expensive property

It’s a gorgeous property. Our standard room was large and well furnished. We loved the pool!

The pool chairs were stacked and you had to sort it all out and put it back at the end. It was a shame because the pool is really big and gorgeous but that area just looked kind of sad. Perhaps if they arranged just a few of the chairs so it didn’t look a haphazard.

The property is truly so beautiful. The view was amazing, the gardens were exceptional, the location was unmatched. The service was friendly and helpful! The rooms weee very clean and everything in the room worked properly. Overall an excellent experience and I would stay there again.

Nothing! Beautiful facility, well cared for and all of the staff are friendly, helpful--we loved it!

We actually stayed at the hotel for 4 nights and loved every minute. Everything was well done, well cared for and it was all exceptional. We would recommend it! The food is delicious, we ate dinner every night at the hotel, the staff and everyone involved in the hotel are gracious and always willing to help. We would definitely recommend the hotel to others.
