Arcotel Nike Linz

NIce modern and comfort hotel with a nice view on night Donau. Best place where I could stay after concert in close Bruckner house.

I stayed at the Arcotel Nike Linz for three nights in January 2024 as part of a solo holiday. The location of the hotel is slightly away from the old town - about 15 minutes walk - but being right next to the Danube and the Brucknerhaus has its own attractions. The hotel is a simple tourist hotel with no bells and whistles. My room on the fourth floor was basic and clean but showed many signs of wear and tear and much need of renovation. I noticed a new Arcotel is being built close by so maybe this hotel won't be around for much longer...? The staff were very helpful and kind and spoke excellent English. The breakfast buffet was very good and extensive, and being able to have dinner in the hotel restaurant was a major benefit, considering there were no restaurants nearby and it was very cold and wet when I was there. The food was excellent. The one BIG problem occurred on my last night when about a hundred young people - they seemed like senior high school students - descended on the hotel. Sadly these people were very badly behaved and very poorly supervised. There was a lot of noise in the hallways and even knocking on my door. To their credit, the staff immediately understood my predicament and upgraded me to a superior room on the top floor for my last night. This was very comfortable - and quiet - and was offered immediately and without question once I let them know what was happening. I know the behaviour of the students was not the hotel's fault, but it did spoil what was otherwise a very pleasant stay.

Very good location close to the city, clean and modern room. Good breakfast and fantastic good outdoor terrace for a drink in the afterenoon. cannot recommend the hotelrestaurant for dinner since my previous stay in summer, they had the same menu. Bed was hard in the, room seems as it missing the upper madrass. Otherwise a very good stay.
