    The view of the Danube from our room was spectacular! The hotel is very historic and a fun place to stay in Durnstein. Breakfast was wonderful. We enjoyed the pool on a warm day.

    Excellent and unique facility. Museum-like art everywhere, interesting local history and activities (boating on the Danube, shops in town, visiting churches, visiting nearby Melk Abbey). Good onsite breakfast and dinner option. Romantic dinner...
