Hotel Richard Löwenherz
9.1 (64 reviews)

Hotel Richard Löwenherz ★★★★

📍 Dürnstein 8, Durnstein

"A wonderful hotel in an interesting and beautiful region. Peaceful, but with many things to do, particularly if you like to explore, either by walking, biking or hiking. Enjoy history, good wines, beautiful vineyards and forests, a challenging and scenic sculpture hike. The Richard Lowenherz is a piece of art & history itself. Amazing antiques and artwork, a historic landmark, in the center of a quaint village on the banks of the Danube. Wonderful staff, too."

Hotel Schloss Dürnstein

Hotel Schloss Dürnstein ★★★★★

📍 Dürnstein 2, Durnstein

"Thanks to the heating being turned up full blast, it was unbearably hot when we entered the room, so we quickly opened the windows and went for an evening stroll. Upon our return, we were met with an unpleasant surprise: something was making an unbearably loud droning noise in the courtyard; sleeping with the windows open was out of the question. The receptionist was quite taken aback by the noise: "That can't possibly be coming from us." A quick call to the manager: "No, there are no rooms available in your category." Both statements were blatant lies! There were plenty of rooms available on the castle side, and the droning, as we discovered the next morning, was coming from the restaurant's ventilation system; it stopped every evening at 10:00 PM and started again around 7:00 AM when they started preparing breakfast. Clearly, with the weekly special (stay 3 - pay for 2), we only got the cheapest rooms and weren't exactly taken seriously. Breakfast was above average, dinner was okay, but the rooms were a bit small for the price (it was still a lot of money)."

Gartenhotel & Weingut Pfeffel Dürnstein
8.6 (24 reviews)

Gartenhotel & Weingut Pfeffel Dürnstein ★★★★

📍 Dürnstein 122, Durnstein

"Not a good hotel. The rooms are very dated, with furniture and fittings that look like they haven’t been updated in decades. Most things are either broken, worn out, or barely functional. There is no air conditioning, which made the stay very uncomfortable. The rooms are consistently 5–10 degrees warmer than outside, and the old, drab furniture just adds to the stuffy, claustrophobic feeling. As the other reviews have said, the hotel is basically half of a building site. Construction starts early in the morning and is extremely noisy, which completely ruins any chance of rest or relaxation. The location is also poor. It’s right on a main road, so there is constant traffic noise, day and night. To make things worse, the only way into town is via a narrow, dark road that takes about 20 minutes to walk. Not convenient at all. Service was very mixed. A few members of staff were polite and helpful, but others were shockingly rude. At times, staff were openly disrespecting each other in front of guests, which made for an awkward and unprofessional atmosphere. Overall, I would not recommend this hotel to anyone. Outdated, uncomfortable, badly located, noisy, and with inconsistent service."

Wachau-Living ★★★★
"The Rothenhof 1 apartment has several defects. There's an unpleasant musty smell on the lower floor, the plaster in the bathroom is crumbling, and there's mold on some of the walls, the ceiling vent is hanging down, salt has been spread on the windows and floor for pest control, an unused high chair is left lying around, and the bottles in the wine cellar are completely covered in dust. Far too expensive; I wouldn't book this apartment again!"

Hotel Schloss Dürnstein ★★★★★
"The rooms for the price of 300€ are absolutely insufficient (small and shabby) plus the management is pretty unfriendly and arrogant. Maybe like for 150€/night would be ok but the hotel definitely isn’t worth the price they charge. Definitely cannot recommend this place!"

Gartenhotel & Weingut Pfeffel Dürnstein ★★★★
"Beautiful hotel with spacious and tastefully decorated spaces and rooms. Rooftop wellness area with a relaxing view. New construction activity was not perceived as disturbing. The location at the foot of the vineyards means it's directly on the Krems-Melk road with corresponding traffic, separated only by a quiet railway embankment. Rooms without air conditioning mean open windows with street noise. Rooms above the smoking terrace are not recommended. The service is supposed to be over after 10:00 PM – no one cares. Breakfast really had an above-average and good selection. Dinner: Disappointing, because the salmon tartar starter was more of an attempt but not well-executed, i.e., without seasoning, and the main course had a wait of an hour. Explanation: Communication was broken! The restaurant was visited by a group and a few couples. This wasn't Austria. We dined at the Schlosshotel for the next few days with excellent service and imaginative cuisine. Nevertheless, a beautiful hotel with potential for improvement, with appropriate management. The staff, by the way, was exceptionally polite, except for one senior who shuffled around without greeting."
