Amazing hotel with great atmosphere. Everything was just wonderful. Lady at the reception was friendly and helpful. Staff in the restaurant was very kind, food was extraordinary and live music on Friday evening? What a nice surprise. Room and bathroom were like from the real castle. I was travelling with two kids and nothing was the problem, bed for the son, crib for the little one, they even got some nice presents. We didn't have time for swimming pool, but we will definitely try it next time.

Excellent family run pension with a friendly cat (that will leave you alone if you want) right in the heart of Dürnstein. The room was plenty big, the staff was kind, the buffet breakfast was generous, but the best part (other than the cat) is the outdoor areas some of which offer views above the roofs of the town.

Our stay here was wonderful. We were in this region for the first time and right during Easters. The landscape was in blossom and the house has gorgeous location . Completely baby and dog-friendly - safety courtyard for day-stay, position close to cyclopathways and walking pathways are right behind the door. Excelent even for bike storage. Only parking is little bit far (for us with so many stuff for baby and dog), but this is acceptable with the position of house. Nice nighbours, everytime in good mood. Beds were comfortable, rooms clean and wine delicious.

I loved the friendly and professional staff who even took care of preparing a vegan breakfast for me, for which I asked. I loved the warm welcome and the friendly, warm goodbye. The bed and pillow were very comfortable as was the whole simple but traditionally designed room.

    Wachau is an absolutely wonderful destination for people who love good food, fantastic wine and beautiful scenery and architecture. A bicycle tour is a great choice, as one can explore in their own pace the villages and vineyards and anytime stop and wonder at the historic architecture, castles and fortresses and breathtaking views of the Danube and surrounding landscapes. Dürnstein is one of Wachau's jewels, certainly worth taking the time to visit, from the atmospheric medieval cobbled streets, to the impressive architecture and of course the ruins on the hill, known as where once Richard Lionheart was imprisoned.

    It's an old monastery that is the hallmark of the village. The village is about one millenium years and has a fortress ruin overlooking it all. The forests and mountainous hills all around is a magic place for hikes and discovering amazing castles and churches.

    Durnstein is a strange village; the old centre is attractive and interesting, but you get a feeling that it's a ghost town. It seems to exist for day trippers, and it doesn't have a life of its own. The only shops are tourist shops - no pharmacies, no grocery shops, no stationeries selling newspapers and magazines.... Some eateries close by 6pm and after that, it really is a ghost town.

    Unfortunately there were some problems... . The WiFi inside the room did not work. I have asked twice and it was fixed but for just a few hours... so I had to use my data plan on my phone. Bed was very uncomfortable. It was a double bad but... with some board in the middle, with one side of bed being higher than the other part and squicking on every move in the bed. The only way I could shower was if I was holding the shower had in my hand..... which made it impossible to wash properly my heir and.... water was splushing from defecting shower head. Breakfast was great.... people were very nice but... I would not stay in this hotel again.

    The location, the location and once more the location, it is perfect. Just about 150 m from the Hotel Schloss Dürnstein and as close to the Donau as possible and parking on site. What else could you ask? Of course, Donau Radweg. But at the Gästehouse Stöger the cycle road is just outside the door. And you have a garage for the bikes. Breakfast is also very good.

    The apartment was located on the main street of Dürnstein. Given it was low season it was very calm. I can imagine the town gets very busy during spring/summer. The apartment was comfortable for 4 people and check-in and check-out was very smooth. Clean, spacious, good deal. To shower in the second bathroom is difficult but doable.
