Hotel Richard Löwenherz
Dürnstein 8, 3601 Dürnstein, Austria – Excellent location – show map
Excellent location – rated 9.7/10! (score from 225 reviews)
Rated by guests after their stay at Hotel Richard Löwenherz.
Outside our windows, the Danube. The hotel is an abbey filled with the most beautiful collection of images of Durnstein spanning hundreds of years. The building itself is exquisite and rich in history. The castle ruins high above the hotel is a wonderful hike.The food and waiters were 'old world' wonderful, and we ate there each evening, something we never do. Note, they have some sort of dining plan, which would be worth it. The family has owned this hotel for many generations, and everything is ship shape, in fact there are chandeliers made from ships. We fell in love with the place and stayed an extra night. Biking,(hotel will provide you with bikes, reserve them), through the Wachau Valley each day and drinking the amazing crisp wines, paired with the cuisine of the hotel is quite an experience. Enjoy it.

Beautiful, old buildings of exceptional charm, comfort and architectural interest, with furnishings and art works also of exceptional quality and appropriate style and age. Exceptionally beautiful gardens, pool, view and balcony. Lovely breakfast with good choice of delicious food. Quite outstanding accommodation!

Lovely breakfast with eggs, fresh fruit and even gluten free bread on request. We asked for a room on the Danube and were on the first floor, which was fine and very quiet. Woke up to boats going down the Danube, birds singing, sun coming up, so peaceful and charming. Boat dock for trips to Melk very convenient and staff was helpful in directing us.

We have stayed here many times and never disappointed. Views and rooms are top notch and romantic! Food in the restaurant is superb. The town was alive with Herbst Fest during our visit and we thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The owner and staff are wonderful. We will stay here again soon!

Hotel Richard Löwenherz is surrounded by medieval convent walls and decorated with works of art from the region.
The wonderful location, the romantic terrace restaurant overlooking the Danube, the extensive, dreamlike convent garden with its swimming pool, and the open fireplace give the hotel its unique character.
The award-winning gourmet restaurant serves a wide range of traditional and innovative culinary delicacies, as well as a selection of excellent wines from local, Austrian and international vineyards.
