Had been at a four day conference in Vienna, and my wife and I were looking for a short break in the countryside prior to the long haul back to Australia. What a stroke of luck that we chose the schloss duernstein. This is a very special hotel, set as it is in a small traditional village surrounded by vineyards.... More

Just there for one night but quite a spectacular location and setting. While the town is very small with a few tourist stores, it is a setting you could relax and unwind in for longer if you like. We were driving from Vienna to Salzburg and this was a great overnight stop on the way. Perched above but right on... More

This was a repeat visit. We spent one day hiking in the hills with lunch at the charming Fesslhutte, the second using the hotel's bikes to cycle up to the pretty village of Wissenkirchen. With dinner both days on the terrace overlooking the Danube, surely the finest food, wine and backdrop for any meal in Austria. Nothing to add to... More

We had a nice, spacious room facing the entry courtyard. Didn't mind, just note that there's no AC and if you want to open the windows, you'll get some noise from the outside. The restaurant is perfectly situated, overlooking the Danube river. The breakfast was solid, the dinner I did find to be a bit un-inspired but solid fare nonetheless.... More

Impressive historic location high above the river danube with a beautiful entrance hall and library and rooms behind meterthick walls. Your choice should be danubefronted rooms with a great view. Most beautiful: the terrace of the restaurant high above the danube. To comply with the high standards of the place one could expect higher restaurant standards although the setting may... More

We stayed one night on our drive in the Danube River valley. We had room "Tor (tower) 2," a large 2nd floor walkup which had windows on two walls overlooking the Danube and in one wall over the courtyard: couldn't have been more scenic. The room, and the whole Schloss, is decorated with antiques and period furnishings. The small staff... More

The rooms were gorgeous-- lots of charm. Ours had a bathroom built into a wardrobe-- well planned and executed. It's a great place to bring your pet along-- the hotel is magnificent with pets. The restaurant is fantastic. The duck is not to be missed. The location is fantastic for exploring the sweet little village.

We stayed here as part of a self guided Danube bike ride. The beautiful surrounding, building, grounds, pool and terrace dining was beyond our wildest imagination for our cycling activity. There was a delay in our clothing arriving, unrelated to our stay, but they were sympathetic and helpful when we asked for assistance in the issue. The bed and room... More

The Hotel Schloss Durnstein is perfectly located on the Danube River. The front desk staff is lovely at this family run hotel. The common areas have A/C but the rooms do not. We ate dinner on an outside terrace with an amazing view of the Wachau Valley. The hotel has a very formal old world feel to it. I don't... More

A wonderful hotel, excellent restaurant and fantastic staff Since I spent several weekends at this hotel I decided to come there with my company. The organisation was perfect, especially the food in the restaurant was perfect. Also my vegetarian guests where highly contended - the choice and quality of food was amazing.
