Reviews of Weingut Donabaum "In der Spitz"

Everything is perfect from arrival to departure but most of All the Service at the heated pool 🔝

Nothing to complain

Very close to areas you would like to visit. Good restaurants in the area.

Beatiful surroundings in the middle of vineyards, great swimming pool and super delicious breakfast

The breakfast is like a 3-star one, but with good quality products. The pool is extraordinary! Disappointing staff! It is way too expensive for what it offers!

I didn't like the staff!

Amazing location and facilities surrounded by wine yards and mountains. Very clean and nice, relaxed. The pool was great.

There is no dinner available. The staff was a bit unfriendly, but it might be because of the language barrier (the staff speaks only very little English).

Nice location on a winery. Excellent breakfast included.

We did not feel very welcome, and the requested wine tasting was rushed. We were not offered help where to enjoy our purchased wine nor were we introduced to the pool or sauna.

This place is perfection! Spitz is a charmer and this hotel/weingut is the best!

We liked everything about this place

Gorgeous location with very modern and clean decor. Very good breakfast.

No exercise facility.

The hotel itself and the location were everything we imagined. The rooms were very clean, well appointed, and quite large. The furniture (bed, chairs, couch) was all very nice and the bathroom was great. The view from the balcony was amazing looking over the patio and pool below and especially over the terraced vineyards. The light breakfasts were very delicious and the eatery was a great place to greet the day. The wines met all expectations and were quite affordable and delicious. There is a beautiful pool and patio as well as an onsite spa with hot rooms and saunas. Short drive into Melk which has beautiful shops, old buildings (including a Benedictine monastery), eateries and other fun things to do such as take a cruise on the blue Danube.

Our arrival was almost greeted like a surprise and nearly seemed like it was unappreciated. None of the amenities were gone over for us (including the less than intuitive underground garage operation) and we felt more like interlopers than guests. I understand that we were English speaking Americans, but that shouldn't have shone on us in an unkindly way in our opinion especially for a hotel, which of course, is a service industry, no matter how esoteric of a place it might be. We also understand in Europe that air conditioning is not to be expected, but in the description it did mention that these modern units had air conditioning. However, when we got to our rooms, we found that the air conditioning would not turn on (it was in the mid 80's both days were there). After a call to the front office to ask about the air conditioning and to inquire about a good place to get dinner (there is no food available on site after breakfast and there are VERY limited options in town in the later evening hours after 7pm), we were informed that it had "turned cold" and that therefore the heat had been turned on and the air conditioning had been deactivated. We were told to simply "open the window" and that we didn't need the air conditioning. The final nail in the proverbial coffin was that one of or party left behind a rain coat in the closest. We inquired about getting it shipped to us as we were already off to Vienna and only a day from coming back to the States. We were told that it could be sent to a European address, but not the the U.S. Once again, the service one receives from a hotel is a large part of the experience and the unwillingness to assist with the mailing of a jacket back to the States falls FAR short of what is expected in the hospitality business.

Wonderful boutique hotel, very comfortable, clean, great pool, great staff, great breakfast!

Magical place, great people, amazing atmosphere

It was perhaps the prettiest place we stayed in Austria and that is saying a lot for this beautiful country. Have you ever had a dream of a story book vineyard, decorated with flowers and vines on a lovely mountainside beneath castle ruins where sweet warm plums literally fall from the trees for the eating. Then stay here and your dream will come true. Take the walk up to the hotel from town on the mountainside you won’t regret it. And the wine was superb at a very reasonable cost.

My foolishness at not learning a little german. This charming spot is off the beaten track, the owners speak only a little English. I would have liked to have spoken with them more. Learn a few words before you go. But make sure to go. You will love it.

Beautiful setting. Quiet area.

The views the pool and the breakfast

The WiFi the air conditioning and mainly the staff

quiet and stunning location overlooking vineyards. Had view of old fortress that we hiked to. Walk into town was easy.  breakfast was fantastic.

what has been nice to have a few snacks or like food available while we were sitting on their beautiful tables and deck?

the location is great, with vineyards all around.

We needed to check multiple times for electric charging. First we were told there is none, then on checking again it was available but at an extra charge (which is totally fine). We knew there was a wellness side to the hotel but were not informed of the facility or timings.
