Stadthotel Hauser Eck

Lower Austria


This well-maintained hotel inside a rambling art-nouveau corner building (hence the name) in the historical part of town is arguably St Pölten's best deal, especially for solo travellers. The 28 rooms are well fitted out, if sometimes on the snug side, and bathrooms are kept sparklingly clean.
