Great experience- unique hotel - staff was excellent for service and provided great area tourist info. The location is great- in a small town, but parking is inside the hotel boundaries. We really enjoyed the terrace with a great view of the Danube- great place to sip and watch the river boats float by. Breakfast was very good as well- made to order items along with buffet items. Although this is a more expensive hotel, it was worth it.

schöne Zimmer mit tollem Blick auf die Donau

eigener Charme als altes Schloß, in diesem Charme sind auch die Zimmer eingerichtet. Schöner Blick auf die Donau von der Terrasse aus. Frühstück ist super. Zimmer mit Klimaanlage was mir wichtig gewesen ist bei hochsommerlichen Temperaturen. Fitnessraum ist ein Witz... Dunkel, stickig muffig....
