Nothing Not To Like Here
All good at this place. Welcoming check-in. Unexpected free welcome drink too. Room modern, spacious enough and well equipped with A/C. Very comfy beds. Bar is nice and the place is right in the middle of town. Couldn't find the hotel carpark and the front of tyhe hotel is in a pedestrian zone. I parked ina public underground car park near by which was a few euros more but hey, ho. Didn't eat there. Has a rooftop bar and restaurant but, as it is under glass and its a heatwave at present, did not go there. Staff very pleasant and helpful. Nothing not too like and good value.

Our room was so small that the only place to put our (medium size) suitcases without tripping over them was in an upright position in one corner. The closet/wardrobe was divided in two 14 inch vertical spaces making it impossible for suitcase placement. However, we did appreciate the on site parking.

They charged me twice.
They charged me twice. It could be a Hotels.com's fault. I chose "Pay at the hotel" option. And my money got deducted by the hotel very soon. When I checked out the hotel, the girl charged me again. She said something about "holding the money", but it IS deducted. She could check the transaction with my card from their data. Definitely, she didn't care what's happening in my reservation. The hotel itself is awesome. Very clean. Nice location. But how can I like such hotel and service.

Hotel is located just off the main street right in the centre of town. It is an easy 15 minute walk from the main train station.

Great location and good rooms in Linz
The hotel has an excellent location in the centre of Linz’s old town. Service is pleasant and efficient. We chose not to have breakfast in the hotel as there are many good options nearby in cafés and bakeries. Our room was very clean and had everything we needed. Recommended.
