  1. We’ve been thinking that it’s time we headed back to Vienna once again. Thanks for giving us some good hotel options.

  2. Austria is proving some beautiful backdrops for these hotels. When it comes to natural beauty, Austria is hard to beat.

  3. This goes to show that the Alps don’t have to be covered in snow and the temperature only a few degrees above freezing for people to have a great time. These alpine hotels give you a very luxurious base for some healthy bike rides and walks through the mountains.
