The charming, traditional Hotel Richard Löwenherz in Dürnstein welcomes you directly on the banks of the Danube. Here you can expect individual service in a wonderful historical ambiance. The Hotel Richard Löwenherz is surrounded by medieval monastery walls and furnished with works of art from the region. The wonderful location, the romantic restaurant with a terrace and view of the Danube, the large, beautiful monastery garden with swimming pool and the open fireplace give the hotel its unique character. Enjoy unforgettable culinary delights in our cozy dining rooms and on the Danube terrace! Our excellent cuisine, which is based on refined tradition, is full of ideas. You can experience this special atmosphere in stylish rooms or on warm days and balmy summer evenings on the terrace with a view of the Danube. You can find our current restaurant opening times on our homepage. The ruins of Dürnstein Castle are today the most popular sight in the Wachau.
