- Breakfast was great, as well as the hospitality of the staff.
- The host, Maria was very friendly and ensure that we had everything in place. Breakfast was traditional Austrian ?. The place was beautiful beyond expectation.
- What a wonderful find. From the moment you walk through the door, you are greeted with the warm Austrian hospitality. I was given a lovely, spacious room with balcony and even considered extending my stay because I was so comfortable, but was only staying for one night.The breakfast is fantastic, no buffet but everything read on the table, with the exception of butter that was brought when I sat down so it would be fresh, and the hot drinksI cannot fault the property or the owners in any way and will happily return on a future occasionFood and drink are excellent and the property is not overpriced either
Cons -
- absolutely nothing. This is one of the properties where you arrive as a guest and leave as a friend-wonderful
- The bells of a nearby church rang loudly every 15 minutes night and day. The shower enclosure was tiny--75 x 75 cm and the water controls projected about 30 cm into the space. There were flies all over, especially in the dining room, and the hotel was prepared: there were fly swatters all around for guests to use.

Dinner was local cooking: a watery pork stew with potatoes--interesting but I would not order it again. Buffet breakfast was OK but not at all special except for superb hot chocolate, made with 100% cocoa instead of overly sugary Nesquik or an equally awful equivalent. The server at breakfast was pleasant and efficient.

Excellent service, fantastic breakfast, very good restaurant, quiet and beautiful location near the Artstetten castle
Very cosy place !I arrived late so they left the keys at the entrance with some really nice notes on paper - I felt immediately like home.In the morning I left early but I got a coffee and some cookies even the restaurant was not yet open.This is what I call the highest level of customer care!Not a luxury hotel but I felt more valued than in any fancy hotel I was guest.It’s a place where I would go back!

Beautiful location, clean and comfortable rooms, very cozy and friendly atmosphere, really nice and helpful host, delicious food and festive setting made with love and care.
Comfortable , clean, everybody is helpful
Wifi is not good, the signal is very weak
Very friendly personnel! The breakfast was rich and delicious. We also had dinner there which was also very tasty. Overall, I can recommend this place :)
Super friendly staff, helpful and accommodating, great decor and delicious food
A friendly helpful owner greeted us warmly on our late arrival. The kitchen was closed and there were no nearby restaurants so she baked us ham and cheese croissants while we unpacked our bags. Above and beyond. This quaint Austrian hotel was a wonderful surprise nestled high on a hillside near a historic castle. At our lovely breakfast in the morning the owner came running to our table to alert us of a local band playing and marching up the street right by the hotel. We loved our stay and would recommend it highly!!
If I were to be very picky I would say the coffee was a little too weak for my taste?
Value for money.Good restautant.
Poor internet.Many flys.
Host was very welcome and loved dogs! Dinner in the restaurant was cozy and good food (if basic, no vegetables / salad etc!). Staff either spoke English or were happy to find someone to translate. Breakfast was lovely, a selection served to our table. Even GF bread for me!
It was all great, the rooms were perfectly fine, nothing amazing but comfortable enough so no complaints.
Very cute, traditional Austrian hotel. Breakfast was amazing, room was clean, cute and cozy and the town was very cute. Loved staying here and would recommend
We really enjoyed the staff and food at this family run guesthouse!If you’re looking for an authentic experience with exceptional food and super friendly staff then this is the place for you. The family makes sure to attend to your every need and her son Binyamin makes such delicious food. We ate at many restaurants in Austria but this was exceptional. We especially liked the ragu and apricot dumplings. The location is a 2 minute walk from a castle and museum dedicated to Franz Ferdinand which was also nice to explore as well.
The location is not near a main city but if you have a car it’s worth staying here.
Super clean, very friendly, very good breakfast, nice restaurant in place
We loved the way owners treated their customers and we also really enjoyed the authentic atmosphere of Austria! We would definitely go there if we will cross that region
The fact that we did not have time to stay a bit longer
Very cozy place with awesome breakfast
Got an upgrade to a double room.
