Gästehaus Achental

I'd stay here again and again. The receptionist is lovely. I was on my own and very nervous about travelling alone, but she gave me great tips and was so friendly. The single room I had was ample, with a desk, wardrobe and above all a balcony looking onto the wonderful river. Everything was spotless. Breakfast was great, but nothing hot, which did not bother me. A great selection. You could take beers, wine and schnaps from the fridge and write it in the book to pay on departure. A God send, lol. Only 10 minutes walk to the train station, which is why I so favoured it. The hotel gives you a free travel pass for the buses. There's a bus from there to the town centre. I went on a Sunday walk all along the town centre and above - map with instructions given to me by the tourist information office - great. Nothing open however in Austria on a Sunday. I had a fabulous time there, but go to attractions of any kind as soon as they open, not even half an hour later as it's incredibly busy in the months of July and August, when I visited. I forgot to say also how reasonably priced the whole stay was.
