Hotels near Klagenfurt Airport - KLU, Klagenfurt

This place is the fairy-tale. We visited the place because of Andrea Bocelli performance, but it deserves to be visited anyway. There I have got the faster and bigger recovering/recharging in my life.

I grew up in Klagenfurt and it's a super nice little City. I would recommend visiting in summer as the city itself could be a bit boring in winter. But there is much to see and do in winter around Klagenfurt itself.

My mother grew up there, so it like a home to me. It is a beautiful place and the capital of Carinthia. There is so much to see, albeit you need a car for some things, and Italy is only 3 hours away.

Klagenfurt is one of the nicest cities in Europe. Very safe. Very clean. It is a university City. This brings a balance of culture and liveliness. Some lovely architecture and history. Just step out of the City and the countryside is breathtaking.

My recent visit to Klagenfurt was an unforgettable experience. This city, the capital of the Carinthia region, perfectly combines natural beauty with rich Austrian history and culture. One of the first places I visited was the Lindwurm, Klagenfurt’s iconic dragon statue located in Neuer Platz. This statue is not only a symbol of the city but also a striking landmark that captures the essence of local history. The Wörthersee was undoubtedly one of the highlights of my trip. This crystal-clear lake is perfect for relaxing, swimming, or engaging in water sports, especially during the summer. The views from the lake’s shores are simply spectacular, offering a perfect setting to unwind. Strolling through the old town of Klagenfurt felt like stepping back in time. The cobblestone streets, Renaissance buildings, and charming squares create a unique atmosphere. Don’t miss the Landhaus with its impressive Hall of Coats of Arms, as well as the numerous historic churches that add both spiritual and architectural depth to the city. For those traveling with family, Minimundus is a must-see. This miniature park allows you to travel the world in an afternoon, enjoying precise replicas of famous monuments and buildings. It’s a fun and educational activity for both kids and adults. In summary, Klagenfurt is a hidden gem in southern Austria. With its blend of history, culture, natural beauty, and vibrant urban life, it’s a destination that has something for everyone. I highly recommend a visit to this wonderful city.

There is a very nice market near the center square, where you can buy local produce. The rest of the city center is quite boring. In the summer heat, most restaurants offer traditional local fatty food (schnitzel, pork knee, Spaetzle etc.) and the service is not that great (especially regarding time). You have to search for something interesting. And the place is expensive, I guess mainly during the season. The Worthersee on the other hand is great. The water is very warm and the views and the cleanliness are amazing. Found some nice public bathing spots and few decent restaurants around the See. But you have to look hard for those.
