This is an astounding combination of upscale hotel with a full-service, multifaceted series of spa facilities. The hotel is efficiently run, very well-appointed in an understated way with spacious rooms and all amenities. Most, if not all, rooms have balconies. The bathrooms are unusually large for a European hotel. The main restaurant serves outstanding meals and truly abundant, esthetically prepared, and highly varied breakfast and dinner buffets that exceed any that I have seen in my travels around the world. The immediately surrounding towns are tiny and appear to be short on services so I don't recommend planning to spend time touring them except possibly for selected guesthouse restaurants and/or wine taverns in the region. The draw is the hotel, its marvelous spa facilities, and its location on the edge of a large Austrian national park comprised of vast grassy and semi-agricultural flatlands and wetlands with abundant wildlife and bird life. Note that the Neusidlersee (lake) is near. The hotel offers Jeep "safaris" in English into the national park (recommended). This is an extraordinary place to relax and unwind on many levels. It is expensive, however, so compare prices. I found Hotels.com to have offered the most competitive price, definitely less expensive than purchasing directly through the hotel website. A free shuttle is available by arrangement to/from the Frauenkirchen train station (10 min, nearby town) with direct rail service to Vienna (~60 min).
