Location

The hotel is situated at Am Winterhafen 13, Linz, right on the Danube riverbank. It is approximately a 15 to 20-minute walk to the historic city centre (Alt Stadt) along the river promenade. Donaustrand Winterhafen beach is just 240 meters away, offering quick access to outdoor relaxation. The nearest airport is Salzburg W. A. Mozart Airport (SZG), located 113 km from the hotel. Public transport connections are limited to one bus route that takes about 15 minutes to reach the city centre, with an additional 5 to 10 minutes walk to the bus stop. The hotel’s riverside location provides pleasant views but is somewhat removed from the immediate city amenities.

Tips

• If you plan to explore Linz city centre frequently, consider using public transport or driving, as the hotel is somewhat isolated by the river.
• Request a room with a river view for a more pleasant stay, but note that air conditioning is limited, so bring appropriate summer gear.
• Take advantage of the free bike rentals to explore the scenic Danube cycle route directly from the hotel.
