In a magnificent position in Nachau, the Gorge, which is the most picturesque section of the Danube, where nature and art combine in perfect harmony, stands Durnstein Castle. Built in renaissance style, it was for century*s Starhenberg. In recent years, the present owners have converted it into a hotel of great style catering to even the most fastidious guest.
The Nachau enjoys a mild, dry climate, which means not only that Austria*s most renowned white wines grow here, but also that the restaurant terrace is a perfect place for just sitting and enjoying. Indeed, it has deservedly acquired the reputation of being the most beautiful terrace on the whole length of the Danube. The fine cuisine and the splendidly stocked cellar have made this Castle hotel a meeting places for gourmets.
