Eintauchen in vergangene Zeiten
Mit den vielen Gemälden in den Gängen und Zimmern kommt es einem so vor, als würde man in einem Museum wohnen. Der Marmor, die Stofftapeten und alten Möbel wirken sehr authentisch, nur die paar moderneren, technischen Geräte(Fehrnseher, altes Telefon - aber nicht alt genug für den Stil) trüben das Bild etwas. Der alte Stil ist Geschmackssache, mir hat er jedoch sehr gut gefallen. Für den vielen Stoff und die ganzen Teppiche war es überraschend sauber. Das Frühstücksbuffet ist relativ klein, aber umfasste trotzdem ein paar luxuriösere Speisen, wie Lachs und Honigwabe und bot auch verschiedenes Obst. Das Personal an Rezeption und beim Frühstück war durchweg freundlich und hilfsbereit.

The room was beautiful and also very functional. The breakfast was wonderful with lots of local foods and homemade poppyseed cake many mornings to go with the coffee! The staff were all very nice and helpful, making us feel like we were in their home rather than a hotel. This is a special place in Klagenfurt!

20-21 July Dishonest management and awful smell. We came late and were moved a couple of times due to unfinished repairs and awful smell. Three of us were walking .from room to room. We end up in a stinky suit and had to sleep with open windows. Every time we moved to a new room, a girl from reception gave us an apology and said that the price is the same. Nothing alarming, it's standard procedure in all hotels around the world. We were tired after all day driving but it was ok. The girl was polite and apologetic. She said she was new. But it wasn't the worst part of our stay. After a pleasant breakfast, we were hit with the news that we have to pay almost 5 times the original price. We tried to explain but we were rudely interrupted by lady who appears to be a manager. She demanded the whole payment and threatened to call the police. She was very rude and just repeated we have to pay or she calls the police. She said she had no information about the previous night. So we welcomed the idea to call the police. As soon as the police came price dropped to 1.6 original price. And she demonstrated full knowledge of events of the previous night. So she lied to us through her teeth all the time. We didn't have time to argue and the police advised to pay that reduced price. If you enjoy being yelled at, scammed of your money, sleeping in a stinky room this is the place for you.

Bad Reception, Beautiful Hotel
Hotel is beautifully appointed and in a great location next to the new square. The staff were initially not so pleasant, and I think one in particular was in need of a little more training when it came to interacting with guests and customer service skills. Upon arrival my fellow travelers were told, insistently and without sympathy that their rooms were cancelled, after they drove 8 hours to get there. They tried hard afterwards to make up for it, but the experience ruined my hotel experience. Additionally, allowing the guests to smoke in the downstairs lobby is unfortunate, because all the smoke goes UP and seeps into the upper floors and guest rooms. I would recommend the hotel rethink their smoking policy.

Great location and staff...
This is a hard review to write but the idea behind these things is to pass on honest feedback so, here goes...the hotel is in an excellent location - opening up on to the main tourist square with everything located nearby. Lots of places to eat, shop and sightsee. The staff at the hotel are truly first class and really go out of their way to ensure you are catered for and looked after with the only issue we had was not being able to get a drink in the bar one night. The hotel is VERY niche with an over the top rococo/baroque style with many period pieces, some that work and some that don't. The staff are all proud of the venue and can tell you about the paintings but the style just didn't work for me. It comes across as very dated and somewhat unclean. They need to balance some of the styles with something more modern and simple. Of course, this is all an opinion. We arrived at the end of May when the weather was very hot and were informed that the air conditioning isn't switched on till June, which led to a couple of uncomfortable nights. Great beds, curtains worked really well but had to leave windows wide open to get some air into the room. The bathrooms border on unacceptable for a 4-star hotel with the products needing an update ASAP. Breakfast was fairly good with a large offering and I did hear another guest ask for something off-menu, which was happily prepared for them. The staff get bonus points but not sure I could recommend.
