Bioweingut Schmidl, hotel in Dürnstein

Offering a garden and garden view, Bioweingut Schmidl is located in Dürnstein, less than 1 km from Dürnstein Castle and 28 km from Herzogenburg Monastery.

Excellent stay! We had a very pleasant three-night stay--couldn't ask for better. The rooms are new and well thought out and designed. The location is an easy walk from the old town of Durnstein so you can get away from the busyness of the old town. If you're arriving by train, the station is right around the corner but the trains are quiet. Breakfast was excellent and prepared and served by Theresa, the owner. Theresa knows how to take care of guests. She answered any questions we had and made excellent recommendations for restaurants.

Winzerhof - Gästehaus Stöger, hotel in Dürnstein

Located in Dürnstein in the Wachau Valley, just steps away from the Danube River, Winzerhof - Gästehaus Stöger features a garden, a bicycle storage room, and bicycle rental.

The location, the location and once more the location, it is perfect. Just about 150 m from the Hotel Schloss Dürnstein and as close to the Donau as possible and parking on site. What else could you ask? Of course, Donau Radweg. But at the Gästehouse Stöger the cycle road is just outside the door. And you have a garage for the bikes. Breakfast is also very good.

Wachau-Living, hotel in Dürnstein

Set in Dürnstein, Wachau-Living has accommodation. The units have parquet floors and include a seating area with a flat-screen TV, a fully equipped kitchen with a dining area and a private bathroom.

Our stay here was wonderful. We were in this region for the first time and right during Easters. The landscape was in blossom and the house has gorgeous location . Completely baby and dog-friendly - safety courtyard for day-stay, position close to cyclopathways and walking pathways are right behind the door. Excelent even for bike storage. Only parking is little bit far (for us with so many stuff for baby and dog), but this is acceptable with the position of house. Nice nighbours, everytime in good mood. Beds were comfortable, rooms clean and wine delicious.

    It's an old monastery that is the hallmark of the village.

    It's an old monastery that is the hallmark of the village. The village is about one millenium years and has a fortress ruin overlooking it all. The forests and mountainous hills all around is a magic place for hikes and discovering amazing castles and churches.

    Durnstein is a strange village; the old centre is attractive and interesting, but you get a feeling that it's a ghost town. It seems to exist for day trippers, and it doesn't have a life of its own. The only shops are tourist shops - no pharmacies, no grocery shops, no stationeries selling newspapers and magazines.... Some eateries close by 6pm and after that, it really is a ghost town.

    Unfortunately there were some problems... .

    Unfortunately there were some problems... . The WiFi inside the room did not work. I have asked twice and it was fixed but for just a few hours... so I had to use my data plan on my phone. Bed was very uncomfortable. It was a double bad but... with some board in the middle, with one side of bed being higher than the other part and squicking on every move in the bed. The only way I could shower was if I was holding the shower had in my hand..... which made it impossible to wash properly my heir and.... water was splushing from defecting shower head. Breakfast was great.... people were very nice but... I would not stay in this hotel again.

    I stayed here with my wife, two young daughters, and my in-laws. We stayed for 3 nights and had a wonderful experience. Everyone was so helpful and service oriented. The pool was perfect for us to relax in. The food is excellent at the restaurant and the views along the Danube are gorgeous.

    Beautiful picturesque town in the Wachau valley.

    Beautiful picturesque town in the Wachau valley. Lots of wineries nearby and some cute restaurants in the town itself. Very walkable. Touristy by day with people coming from Vienna but insanely quiet by night. We felt like we had the whole town to ourselves!

    The room and facilities (grill, sauna) were great! We ordered the breakfast one day which was plenty of food for two people twice. We also ordered the grill package and had a lovely barbecue twice. For being so “far” from Krems and Dürnstein we found the location perfect even without a car. The bus stop is perfectly located and it comes every hour. We also walked to both Dürnstein and Krems for tourism and groceries respectively and it wasn’t difficult. Great long weekend :)

    This hotel exemplifies the history and character of the Wachau region in general and Durnstein in particular. The staff are attentive, friendly and knowledgeable, the rooms are spacious, there are prints, etchings and paintings everywhere - showing off the history of the region and giving it context. The pool is lovely, the dining and wines exemplary, and the views of the river superb. An absolute treat!

    The location is exceptionally picturesque comprising endlessly terraced grape vines with the mighty Danube River in the foreground and deep green pine forested hills behind. The food in the region (Lower Austria) was sensational, the hosts were exceedingly friendly and welcoming, and the accommodation (fully contained apartment) was modern and immaculate. We definitely intend to return in the future.

    Bioweingut Schmidl is in a very peaceful location but also very close to downtown Durnstein. The rooms are very large, comfortable and clean. The host, Theresa, was very friendly and accommodating. You can sit on the terrace and enjoy the views of the vineyards and the castle - it's amazing. We also tasted their wine and it was excellent as well as their breakfast. We just wish we had stayed longer.

    We actually stayed at the hotel for 4 nights and loved every minute. Everything was well done, well cared for and it was all exceptional. We would recommend it! The food is delicious, we ate dinner every night at the hotel, the staff and everyone involved in the hotel are gracious and always willing to help. We would definitely recommend the hotel to others.

    Loved the location - the property is located in the heart of charming Durnstein (much cuter than Krems and Melk to stay in). The rooms were spacious, comfortable, clean and exudes local charm. We were able to park in a parking lot about 5 minutes walking distance. Nothing we did not like! Lots of restaurants, stores, and a delicious bakery nearby!

    Gästezimmer Rolea was a great place to stay with a very welcoming family, who went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable. The house is in a great location on the edge of Durnstein and very walkable to the attractions in town. Breakfast was extensive (particularly for a smaller B&B), and the place is very dog friendly.

    Simply an amazing setting! Right in the heart of the picturesque Wachau region. The accommodation comes with terrace gardens that overlook the village of Durnstein, and the Danube. Very peaceful. Also, there is an ancient way, adjacent to the hotel, leading up to the ruins of a castle of King Richard the Lion Heart fame.
