Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
If you’re planning to visit Melk Abbey, be aware that Hotel Donauhof is not within walking distance—you’ll need to take a taxi, which costs about €16 each way. Alternatively, there's a bus that runs only once per hour. The hotel provides no in-room amenities—not even, tea or bottled water—and there is no air conditioning, which can be uncomfortable in the warmer months after June. There are no activity area around the hotel, with no restaurants nearby except the hotel’s own. During our stay, the elevator was out of order, and we had to carry our suitcases up the stairs. If you're visiting Melk Abbey, I would recommend staying in Melk itself. You'll find similar or lower prices, access to a charming small town, and several dining options within walking distance.

Highly recommended

An excellent family-run hotel on the banks of the Dnube. Very good breakfast. Nice restaurant. We upgraded to a large room with a balcony and a full view of the Danube for only 15€ per night.

Absolutely Gorgeous

The hotel is cute. The location is awesome and it's pet friendly. I was surprised that there was no air conditioner or fan that was the only thing off for me since I woke up in a pull of sweat 😂.

Music in the bathroom honey in honeycombs

Hotel is a traditional classic Austrian hotel. With a lot of wood inside. Despite that the rooms are modern and I find them very practical. I really like that you get music in the bathroom. Is matching perfect with the big cabin shower Breakfast is good and it I like that they serve honey in honeycombs Manny people came to have dinner at the nice terrace

Das Zimmer war an und für sich schön, die Aussicht auf die Donau traumhaft. Aber sowohl der tropfende Duschkopf (weil undicht) als auch das kalt und warm vertauscht waren, war weniger gut. Auch als Dienstreisender kein funktionierendes Internet zu haben ist suboptimal. Aber die Mitarbeiter.... ich habe eine junge Dame am Morgen an der Rezeption und einen jungen Herrn, der vermutlich gerade eingelernt wurde, in guter Erinnerung. Einen anderen, eher noch jungen Kellner (so ca. 25-35) empfand ich schon als eher schroff ebenso wie die ältere Dame an der Rezeption (vermutlich Teil der Hotelleitung, hätte ich geraten) war irgendwo zwischen bestenfalls schroff bis teilweise unhöflich - aber das bei allen Gästen, wo ich das beobachten konnte (ein Gast fragte wegen der Brotmesser, weil diese stumpf seien - ihre Antwort war sinngemäß "Schau, schau, was glaubst du, was ich da mache? Die bringe ich zum Schleifen!"). Diese Erfahrung hier gedenke ich nicht zu wiederholen. Ich möchte mich wohlfühlen und das Gefühl haben, als Gast geschätzt zu werden und nicht eine störende Belastung zu sein. Das klappt in den meisten Hotels, wo ich hinkomme, sehr gut. Hier aber nicht. Sehr schade.

Gutes Hotel mit kleineren Mängeln

Insgesamt ein schönes Hotel, gutes Preisleistungsverhältnis. Chefin etwas unfreundlich, was der Oberkellner mit seiner freundlich-lustigen Art aber wieder ausgeglichen hat. Zimmer sauber, ruhig und gut verdunkelbar. Massagefunktion der Betten großartig! Einziges Manko: Am Nachmittag, als alle bei Regenanbruch nach Hause kamen und duschten, wechselte das Wasser immer zwischen kalt und heiß. Das sollte bei einem 4-Sterne-Betrieb wirklich nicht vorkommen! Das Problem trat am nächsten Vormittag nicht mehr auf. Das hauseigene Restaurant ist zu empfehlen; am Abend kommen auch externe Gäste zum Essen in den schönen Gastgarten.

Très bonne adresse pour un séjour à Melk

Très bien, calme, nous avions demandé des chambres côté cour (attention, peut être plus bruyant côté route mais avec vue sur le Danube). Prix des petits déjeuners exorbitant (par rapport au prix des chambres) : nous ne les avons pas pris, même après négociation sur le prix pour les enfants.

Quite OK

We stayed there just over night when we visited Wachau. Can't really say anything wrong or bad about it, we were satisfied with our short stay. Very decent room/bathroom, free parking... average breakfast. Not many things to do around it but if you have a car Melk is just a short ride across the Danube.

Clean, comfy, cozy

The facade of the hotel looks old but the rooms are actually all newly renovated. Clean and comfortable. In house restaurant serves good food too. Check in was smooth but service at check out was unpleasant. We were kept by the concierge because they could not find the payment record despite showing her that the room was fully paid.
