We stayed one night, very good location in Inner Stadt, nice facilities, friendly and helpful staff. Good breakfast. Enjoyable, low key environment. We were three persons, including a teen, in a suite. Plenty of room.

The room is much more spacious and cleaner than it looks on the website, and the air conditioning is wonderfully cool. All the staff are friendly (which was such a relief after being worn out by the rudeness in Salzburg and Hallstatt) and very helpful. I highly recommend the rooftop restaurant’s barbecue and tuna steak, and the breakfast buffet was the best quality we’ve had during our entire Germany–Austria trip.

Everything was clean, very nice and working (bed, washroom, shower, toilet, WIFI). Breakfast was very good. Only small negative point was that the room was a bit hot (AC working ok but not very strong, curtails quite thin so the sun could heat the room easily). Honestly, it was way better than expected.

Great location and the room for 1 was more than okay. You get what you pay for. Maybe change the TV for one with YouTube or something, because you only have German speaking TV.

Great hotel

Very nice hotel with friendly staff and good service. Main problem was an unexpected heatwave in Linz for which their AC just wasent ment to handle. They did also charge me for a night even tho i pre paid the trip, but they refunded me in the morning. Overall very nice hotel with a great location!

The hotel was in a convenient location for me to walk to all of the Christmas markets, which was the reason for my trip. The staff was very nice and the single room was comfy. I even had my own balcony! Would definitley recommend

Nice downtown hotel

The hotel is situated in the downtown of Linz, a very short walk from tram stops and the main square, but luckily with the window closed it was quiet and not noisy at all inside the room. The staff was nice, the room was clean, bed was comfortable, and it was nice to have a bottle of complimentary water and a coffee capsule for the coffee machine. The breakfast felt overpriced, but it was good quality, mostly the usual items of a buffet breakfast, but with a little more than usual choice in fruits and cheeses.
