The Staff here were very helpful and pleasant. The hotel is in good shape and well kept up. The only downside is that if you have the windows open along the street it is VERY noisy. Also I was in a corner room over the entrance and the area is used as a smoking area, so you get the added plus of second hand smoke, so try for a room in rear. Perhaps if the hotel could add fans to room since there is no AC, they can help mask some of noise. The best bet is try for a room in the rear of the hotel.

Excellent check in, help with local attractions and map. Less than 5 minutes to train stat. 15 to 20 minutes to old town. Breakfast was good, choice of fried or scrambled eggs, juices, cereals , ups cold meats. Most hotels in Europe don’t seem to have air , so have to have window open. All in all decent value and would stay again.

Warning: a horror story is included in this review

We arrived in the room and noticed a foul smell hanging in the air. It was not clear whether this was from the previous guest or lack of cleaning that day. When we checked the bathroom we assumed that the guest had a great dinner last night and felt like he needed to leave a gift to this excellent establishment before checking out.

We decided to open the window to let the air clear out and left to visit the beautiful christmas markets of Graz.

When we returned we were faced with a familiar odour. It was not clear how this smell has returned to haunt us. We have decided that the room is cursed and that this great fart of a Habsburg ghost is now forever part of the place. The bathroom is also haunted but the smell is even stronger. Our three day journey to Graz will forever be remembered by this sensation.

The End
