Hotels near Herberstein Zoo, Stubenberg

A wonderful hotel with a charming inner courtyard, beautifully lit in the evenings — perfect for sitting together as a family or with friends before bed, sharing stories from the day and enjoying the peaceful atmosphere. The breakfasts were excellent, with the lovely bonus of being able to request freshly made eggs with ham and vegetables at no extra charge. The hotel is located in an incredibly well-kept village — I highly recommend taking a walk in the evening, going down to the river, and watching the sunset. You might even spot wild hares darting between the vineyards or shy young deer stepping cautiously out of the forest. The entire village feels like it was created with great care and love — for the community, for visitors, and especially for children. There are many informative signs and posters about different apple varieties, local fish species, and bits of regional history and nature. Just 5 km away, there’s a lovely zoo, a castle perched on a cliff, and a scenic lake with facilities for swimming, sunbathing, and relaxing. Our 15-year-old daughter was absolutely thrilled — she ran around everywhere reading nature signs and historical info, taking pictures, swinging on the swings, swimming in the river, and said a heartfelt thank-you for bringing her to this magical place.

The hotel is in very good place. The kids loved the stay. Food is good, and there was gluten free choise too

Very nice surroundings with the terrace overlooking the lake and fields. It was not directly on the lake which we liked since that made it calmer, especially travelling with a baby and a dog. Breakfast was great, and the staff was super friendly and accommodating.

amazing location, beautiful lake, wonderful park around extra comfortable bed very tasty breakfast
