Arte Hotel Krems

Krems an der Donau


The art of the title might be a stretch, but what you do get here are large, well-designed rooms with open-plan bathrooms, all scattered with '60s-tilting furniture and big, bright patterns. There’s a separately owned wellness studio in the building, and a decent grill restaurant in the same complex.
