The tombs of Archduke Franz Ferdinand and Duchess Sophie Hohenberg are part of a small chapel in the basement level of Austria's Artstetten Castle. History buffs may recall the assassination of the Archduke and his wife Sophie in 1914 during a visit to Serejavo.

Durnstein

"We rented Apartment 3, two bedrooms plus a loft that comfortably slept our party of five. The apartment is very nicely finished, preserving the old world character but adding modern amenities like a dishwater and espresso machine! The complex has three apartments who share a wine cellar with a large table, a terrific barbecue area and our favorite, an electric sauna overlooking the Danube. Only two minor issues: (1) Apt 3 has only one shower and one toilet which was tight for five people,...

B&B HOTEL St. Pölten

10/10 Excellent

"The staff at the hotel are very good, friendly and polite, whip is not so common these days. My room was modern, clean and warm and the bed was comfortable. One small thing that bothered me, there was a (large) squashed bug on the ceiling that hadn’t been spotted by housekeeping. Apart from that I couldn’t fault the place. Definitely recommend. "

I m Inn Hotel Wieselburg

10/10 Excellent

"The staff of the reception was very kind, attentive, immediate action and ready to help with any question we had. For example at the checkin we asked for an iron and when we went to our room, the iron was there already. The staff during the breakfast was also very nice. The food was good. It is a good location. We were able to go for a nice walk + many facilities nearby. We have already plan to go back to the hotel next year. We hope in the future there will be a little fridge and a kettle in the room. We recommend the hotel to anyone going to Austria "
