Absolutely amazing service! Staff at reception was super friendly and very helpful, the suite was very clean and we even received a dog treatment in the room - which was a cherry on the top :) The location is great, the town is very cute and perfect to enjoy some sightseeing or a walk. We already extended our stay for one more night and we will definitely be coming back!

Where to start? Amazing location with beautiful views. We could just sit and enjoy the views. Tasty food, we had breakfasts and dinners and the food was just great, rich variations, tasty vegetables and fruits, fine wine.. Staff was helpful, whatever we needed, they tried to help. There were a lot of small things, like you don't need to clean your room, you get the present, but all the small things make it to wonderful experience. Swimming pool was next to the second building of the hotel, just some meters to walk, there was refreshment, table tennis, bedminton.. We will come again, definitely.

So much to love about this property! It’s beautiful, historic with many original features, wonderful staff - we booked 5 minutes prior to arriving and they couldn’t do more to make us feel comfortable, beautifully run, amazingly comfortable beds (cycled from passau to Vienna averaging 70km per day and this was my best nights sleep by far!), wonderful breakfast. I really hope we are lucky enough to stay here again one day and have recommended it to family and friends already despite only having stayed there last night. Even the village and neighbouring villages are stunning and rich with history and wine

Lovely location in the middle of the vineyards. Spacious and comfortable studio with a great bed as well as pleasant bed linen. The communication with Eszter was absolutely great, really kind and pro-client approach. There is a pool in the garden to cool down after a day of Wachau exploration. Last but not least - the breakfast concept - “spoiling pure” - one can hardly imagine a better start of a vacation day.

A Truly Magical Stay – Warm, Charming, and Impeccably Clean Hotel Ur-Wachau is nothing short of amazing. From the moment we arrived, we felt wrapped in warmth and elegance. The charm of the historic building, the attention to detail in every corner, and the genuine hospitality make it a rare gem. The rooms are spotless—truly pristine. I even sat in the beautiful breakfast room trying to spot anything made of plastic, just out of curiosity, and found nothing. Everything is thoughtfully chosen, beautifully maintained, and deeply authentic. Breakfast was a highlight—local flavors, homemade delicacies, and served in what feels like a fairytale chapel. The whole experience radiates care and intention. If you’re looking for a place that’s serene, inspiring, and truly sustainable, look no further. I can’t recommend it enough. Just wow.

Very friendly owner, clean place, although wi-fi passwords were outdated, shower is a bit small and the stove could use some cleaning and a baking tray. The price to service ratio is, however, very good. The town itself is very small, nothing special to see here, but the location is quite close to sightseeing areas so we booked 2 nights.

We were thrilled to be able to stay in the countryside and not in a tourist town like Melk. We loved coming back to the cozy tower every day after our excursions and relaxing on the outdoor seating area. The apartment is spacious, modern, clean and perfectly equipped. Our stay at the tower in Leiben was wonderful and we definitely plan to return.

Melk is a charming, quiet town where I would return as many times as possible. Melk Abbey is extremely imposing, beautiful and full of history. It is a must visit. The Abbey gardens are also splendid. Walking around the town or on the banks of the Danube is a pleasure. There are plenty of restaurants and cafes. You can also take cruises on the Danube.

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.

Very nice town with everything for a pleasant stay. The river, the old town, the hill with the vineyards, the boats through the Wahau valley. The bike routs. All these are worth trying. There are enough and different restaurants for every taste. We were there to try local food and wine and we were not disappointed. We cycled to Spitz with our 8 year old son, had lunch and took a boat back - really exciting for the boy.
