Gasthof Graf

Lower Austria


Right opposite the train station, this 30-room hotel has no-frills rooms with cheapo furniture and brightly coloured walls as well as more expensive quarters with a touch trendier retro-design feel. The downstairs restaurant has affordable mains served with a whiff of second-hand cigarette smoke.
