well, i have nothing special to tell about this hotel. its location is just perfect if you are in graz as a tourist. the staff is really kind and friendly. the interior design is quite poor, looks like a hotel from the late seventies. the breakfast is good. so, this is an ok hotel, but not a four star.

We just stayed in one of this hotel's apartments for a long weekend with our 5-month old baby. The apartment was perfect for our needs and the staff offered to give us a different apartment than the one booked so that we would have access to kitchen facilities. We found the Reception staff to be very welcoming and helpful. The location of the hotel is fantastic - only a five minute walk to the centre of Graz.

As some reviewers have been less than impressed with this hotel, I thought I should share my own very good experience. I wanted to take my elderly parents to Graz (my father had been stationed there after the War) and noticed, from its website, that the hotel offers apartments, including use of a kitchenette which seemed a suitable option for 3 people for a week, especially as we didn't always want to eat out. I booked one direct with the hotel and was very satisfied. The hotel is in a very central location and so it's easy to get everywhere, whether walking or using Graz's excellent public transport. The apartment seemed newly furbished, was clean and comfortable with a very nice view over a rose garden. It also had air-conditioning and use of a roof terrace for sitting, quite an advantage with daily temperatures of 30 centigrade plus. Breakfast was included: a good and plentiful selection of the usual Austro-German type of breakfast with friendly and efficient service by pleasant ladies. Reception staff were English speaking and always helpful and courteous. Graz has many really good or at least solidly reliable restaurants serving Styrian, Austrian or more international fare and the prices seemed to me to offer very good value for money. For Styrian-Austrian cooking I'd recommend Stainzerbauer near the Cathedral, but there are others. For self-catering or even just a snack, the daily market in the Kaiser-Josef-Platz (a stone's throw from the Gollner) is really excellent. Farm fresh produce sold by the farmer (or at least the farmer's wife, mother or grandmother !) and good "fast" food stalls that are nothing like McDonalds. An interesting and relaxed city well worth visiting. We were there for culture (including the Opera House) and memories, but the city has a student population of over 20 to 30000 so there's plenty for young adults too. No complaints at all about the Gollner and I'd happily stay there again.

Era la mia seconda volta al Gollner, ci ero già stato circa 4 anni fa. È un posto di buon livello, ma il rapporto qualità/prezzo non è proprio il massimo: ho pagato 110 euro a notte, colazione inclusa. La prima mattina sono arrivato nella sala colazione alle 7.30 e mi sono trovato davanti una scelta di cibi molto ricca; la seconda mattina, invece, sono sceso verso le 10.00, il cibo era ugualmente buono, ma la scelta era più limitata. Avevo una camera singola, era gradevole, pulitissima e confortevole e aveva un bel bagno. Erano molto parsimoniosi con lo shampoo e gli asciugamani erano un po’ troppo piccoli. Il letto era comodo, la TV prendeva 41 canali, ma la CNN era l’unico in inglese. Nell’armadio c’era una cassetta di sicurezza; niente minibar, ma secondo me non è stata una gran perdita, il minibar non rappresenta poi un gran vantaggio e, di solito, i prezzi delle bibite sono sempre troppo alti. Il personale era davvero gentile e professionale. L'hotel si trova molto vicino al centro città e in una zona ben coperta dal trasporto pubblico. Nei dintorni ci sono negozi in abbondanza e il personale dell’hotel è sempre pronto a dare suggerimenti sulle attività da svolgere. È sicuramente un hotel da consigliare per un viaggio di lavoro, non l'ho valutato sotto il punto di vista di un posto dove andare con la famiglia, lo farò quando andrò a Graz in vacanza.

Stayed in the Gollner for the second time, the last being about four years ago. Very good quality but at €110.00 per night including breakfast the value was bordering on the marginal. Breakfast very good on first morning as I dined about 0730, but on the second morning still very good but less of a choice as I did not arrive until nearer 10.00. Single room was adequate, very clean and comfortable and a nice bathroom. Very sparing with shampoo and the towels on the small size. Bed comfortable, TV with 41 stations but only CNN in English. Safe in the wardrobe and no mini bar, not a loss in my opinion as always overpiced and of doubtful benefit. . Staff very friendly and professional. Location very central in terms of the City and the transport network. Plenty of shopping locally and staff more than willing to suggesta activities. Would recommend for a business visit but had not looked at it from the perspective of a family holiday but would investigate if travelling to Graz on holiday.
