Maria Lankowitz Spa Hotels

"This was our first time visiting Graz, Austria, as a stop on our way to Vienna. The town itself is very charming, and the hotel is located just 18 minutes away from Arnold Schwarzenegger's hometown and museum in Thal, a great side trip for fans. We arrived at 1 AM, and the hotel reception was incredibly accommodating despite the late hour. Our room was surprisingly spacious, with a large living area that gave the impression of staying in a private home divided into suites. The many large windows and cozy layout added to the warm, residential feel. The bed was very comfortable, and the overall ambiance was relaxing. The lobby featured a large, comfortable seating area, and the staff throughout our stay were friendly and helpful. One thing worth mentioning is the choice of artwork near the room. Some pieces, particularly a painting of a woman pointing a gun at her head while having birthday cake, felt a bit unsettling and might be considered offensive to some guests. While art is subjective, this piece stood out as a strange choice in an otherwise peaceful setting. Overall, it's a unique and welcoming hotel with a lot of character,especially great if you're looking for something different from a typical chain stay."

"Every single member of the staff I met went out of their way to make me feel welcome and special. You usually only get this kind of service in exclusive hotels like Four Seasons/Burj Al Arab/W etc"

"Check-in smooth and fast. Accessible room provided upon request. Very clean and comfortable room. A good breakfast. Minor negatives - TV remote not working- a battery?; AC off due to “ low temperatures “, however ventilation on plus open window. Very convenient for overnight when traveling through/around Graz."

"Everything about this hotel was perfect..location was 10 mins walk to old town...room was big ...hotel reception lady was very courteous and offered "

"Really good location for accessing the sights and restaurants. Spacious hotel room. Great breakfast selection and friendly staff."
