HOTEL OPTION 1 [BOUTIQUE]: BOATEL CHARLIE

docked on the danube and just across an island bird preserve, staying here is a very unique and peaceful experience. just a short bus ride or 20 minute walk into downtown, you feel removed from the bustle of the city when drinking your morning coffee on the deck, yet comfortably close for when you're ready to explore.

boatel charlie is simple and beautifully designed, with a cozy fireplace to welcome guests on chillier days. even better – they offer bikes, have super comfy beds, an extremely loving staff, delicious breakfast and are located in the park which makes for a perfect morning run if that's your thing. we loved everything about our stay at this unique little hotel. €40 - €75 depending on the season
 

HOTEL OPTION 2 [LUXURY]: SQUARE NINE

walking into square nine hotel pretty much feels like you're on the set of mad men. their sophisticated and elegant design goes into every single tiny detail, and it's very obvious that every touch was intentional. you can read more about their gorgeous antique furniture here. stop by for coffee in the morning, drinks and live music in the evening ... or even try one of their tasty restaurants. and if you're looking to splurge on a room, it will absolutely be worth it. €250 - €300 depending on the season
