Over repeated visits to various parts of Austria, I've
stayed in various hotels. These are my four favorites.
Please mention MarksTravelNotes.com when contacting these fine establishments. I have stayed at all these hotels.
Salzburg
Hotel Sacher
(
Schwarzstrasse 5-7, A-5020 Salzburg, Austria
)
- The Sacher Hotel has a name to live up to and, unlike
many others, it does so. Situated on the banks of the
River Salzach many rooms overlook the historic old town
of Salzburg -
which is a great night photo op and a short walk away.
Front desk, restaurants service is exemplary - which
is what you expect. Rooms are spacious and beds sumptiously
comfortable. Dining in the Zirbelzimmer is highly recommended
and the wine list is excellent. Don't forget to have
some excellently enjoyable Sacher Torte!
Vienna
Hotel Romischer Kaiser
(
Annagasse 16, Vienna A-1010
)
- The location of the Romischer Kaiser couldn't really
be improved - being a matter of minutes walk from historic Vienna including
both St Stephans Cathedral and the Hofburg Imperial Palace.
Reception staff are excellent and very, very helpful
- it's hard to remember the last time I encountered front
desk staff quite this good. (And thats coming from a
cranky old man!) Rooms are very comfortable and well
decorated in a Baroque style. My only complaint is that
the beds are too comfortable!
Hotel Das Tyrol
(
Mariahilfer Strasse 15, A-1060 Vienna
)
- We found the Hotel Das Tyrol through the Small
Luxury Hotels website - which has given excellent
results in the past. The
Hotel Das Tyrol
was no exception. Really good and helpful front of house,
comfy beds and fine brekky alongside an excellent location
on shoppers heaven Mariahilfer Straβe make the
Hotel Das Tyrol
a firm recommendation.
Bregenz
Hotel Weisses Kreuz
(
Roemerstrasse 5, A-6900 Bregenz
)
- Well located in Bregenz being close to Lake Constance
and the Old Town. Welcoming and hospitable front desk.
The restaurant is very, very good and with a highly respectable
line of quality Austrian wines. Rooms are decent size
and comfortable. A solid performer worthy of repeat stays.
