From the minute we arrived we felt so welcome. What a wonderful hotel. Family run and in a great central location in the the stunning town of Melk. incredible Views to the Palace. We hired electric bikes the first day (10€ for half a day) gorgeous 50km cycle up to Spitz and back (lots of places to stop for wine and beer!) Next day went to a family wedding in Wasserkirken by BOAT! we asked SO many question at reception and they were consistently helpful. The food is delicious too, so many homemade delicacies. We cant wait to go back!

nothing it was all fabulous.

This is an absolutely splendid family-run hotel right in the heart of downtown Melk. You really couldn't ask for more. It has charm, history, and a hard-working family that keeps everything running smoothly. It was hardly a 10 minute walk from the Melk train station to the hotel. Our particular room was positively spacious, with large comfortable beds, a jet tub and a shower, and absolutely magnificent views to the Melk Abbey on the hill above town. The view of the illuminated Abbey from the room at night was absolutely stunning,(one of the most amazing sights in Europe IMHO), and the double-paned windows kept out street noise and came equipped with both blinds and heavy drapes to shut out any light that might disrupt a good night's sleep. It was warmish when we visited, and the A/C worked perfectly with the windows shut and kept the room at a very comfortable temperature. The "European" style buffet breakfast was absolutely fabulous, with meats, cheeses, breads, fruits, juices, and coffee fresh and fully stocked each day. Really something to look forward to each morning! They also have a gourmet-level restaurant in the evening with indoor and outdoor seating serving up all kinds of creative as well as authentic regional dishes, as well as a cozy indoor bar where you can grab a beer or some schnapps after a hard day's sight-seeing. And a gelato ice cream shop right next door that served up vodka lemon sherbert ice cream - a first for me - and wildly delicious (and mildly intoxicating!) The staff was extremely helpful in planning our adventures each day, including accessing the Abbey, planning a Danube day cruise, and even renting e-bikes from their private garage for a modest fee. Overall you're just not going to find a more satisfying experience than staying in one of these family-run hotels, and Hotel Restaurant zur Post in Melk is just the best of the best.

Everything was great!

The location is excellent - right in the middle of Melk, and you can see Melk Monastery, which is just a few minutes away by car. Liked the hospitality a lot. Everyone were very friendly. Clean. Very good restaurant.

Wi-Fi wasn't working in the room. Not very wheelchair accessible - 2 steps at the entrance were not a big deal for us, but breakfast was on the 2nd floor with no elevator. We brought the food downstairs, as the hostess suggested. Old doors that need keys.

The staff was really nice. The hotel is comfortable and in the main square of Melk. The breakfast was amazing, lot of different options, omelette or eggs on demand, good cheese and meats. I only missed some sparkling wine and the coffee quality was so and so. The room was big and clean. I would have liked to have cotton swabs.

It's true that we booked in Easter and short notice but the room price was quite expensive for this category (and you have to pay separately the city tax for 2.5 eur/person).

Excellent breakfast with such nice little touches! Their homemade jam is amazing and the choices are great. But it’s the owner, Marguerite, and her sister, Ursula, who deserve my highest compliments. They could not have been nicer or more helpful. When we arrived we got specific help with our itinerary (above and beyond) and then we enjoyed coffee and cake in the tiny front restaurant. They also set up the nice sauna for us and the amazing Melk Abbey was just a short walk away. We would absolutely stay here again!

Atmospheric hotel with so much charm. My room was at the rear and it was spacious, had air conditioning, a walk-in shower, & modern decor. Had a fantastic dinner in the front dining area. Staff were super helpful and friendly. Secure, covered bike storage area. In an excellent position with great views of the Abbey, which is a 5min walk away.

I wish some of these European hotels had a kettle with tea/coffee supplies in their guest rooms.

We had a good few days in Melk. It was made exceptional by the staff at Zur Post. They were exceptionally friendly and helpful in a difficult situation during an epic flood. We were so appreciative of all the ways they made us feel welcomed and helped us to make the very best in a tough situation. The hotel and restaurant were outstanding. We will make this hotel a destination when we’re in the region given the opportunity.

The location is perfect, walking distance to the old shopping street and in view of the kloster. It's very charming and solid. We also ate dinner there which we enjoyed very much, and breakfast was above average. A helper at breakfast gave us fantastic advice about how to plan our bike trip for the day.

Our room was large enough, but it was totally yellow lighting, from the huge yellow ceiling light and the light bouncing off of the chartreuse walls and curtains (why does that color exist)? I did everything to get some regular white light in there but it was always dark yellow and the chartreuse needs to go. I was really hot at night despite keeping the window open.

Breakfast was delicious and lots of choices. The location is really delightful and I had dinner on the front terrace looking up to the Abbey on the hill above the town. Quite magical. The restaurant is quite popular and they recommend booking which I did. Staff are helpful and efficient. a short walk to the train station with my luggage, just a bit of uphill going from the hotel back to the station. The Abbey is outstanding and requires time to explore both inside and the garden.

Great location. Good onsite parking. Great staff. Very spacious room with a good view of the street and abbey. Very good restaurant and also a very good breakfast included.

Parking at check in is a challenge. Patience is required. Location is in an old town so space is limited out front of the hotel. Finding the back entrance to the hotel and parking was easy.
