“Hotel Wachau strikes me as a particularly solid choice in Melk, especially given its family-run atmosphere and focus on local dining. Its location near the autobahn and the old town makes it appealing, and the inclusion of free garage parking is a definite plus for those driving. Overall, it seems a well-managed property that balances convenience with a touch of regional charm.”
