Great service. The staff is very friendly and helpful, I felt very welcome and my stay was comfortable. I liked how isolated the room was, both from noise and from the cold outside (even without having the AC on).

Arrival to hotel and informed that they couldn't find the booking. Apparently the booking was there all along. Hot water was shut off without warning and no notification or apology. Rude and unhelpful receptionist staff. Despite your own mistake in not locating the booking that existed all along, to tell our upset customer "I'm having a bad week as well" is completely unacceptable.

The hotel is right at the heart of the city Villach. It has a special charm as the building is historic, but all facilities and rooms are brought up to standard and met our expectations. At 8:30am in the morning you will hear the church bell (two strikes to announce the half hour) as it is custom in many of the mid-town hotels in Austria. We thought it is nice that the church bell started at 8:30am and not earlier :-). It didn't bother us. Parking is available but might cost extra. The parking spaces are tight and getting into the hotel parking lot requires some driving skills. Another highlight is the breakfast. It was included in our room rate. It is excellent and uniquely served on a wooden structure that is placed on the table to save space. The next day we walked through the town and got a lot of souvenir shopping done. You can find everything within walking distance in the pedestrian walking zone. Another reason why we had a great time in Villach. We would definitely stay there next time again.

Nice Hotel / Great Location
Hotel Palais is in a good location - parking was a little bit of a science project to find, but not far from the hotel. I booked a single, so my room was small, but it was comfortable and everything worked to my satisfaction. The bar in the lobby was super - what I enjoyed the most.

lovely place!
Hotel was awesome! Very convenient, right on the main strip near shopping, restaurants etc. it’s also a close walk from the train station (OBB) approx 5 minutes away walking. Staff were friendly, some were English-speaking, which was a perk. Decor was modern & on point. Room was clean, with super comfy bed & great vintage detail. Free Breakfast buffet also offered many options (yogurt, cheese, cereal, various fruit juices etc.). Can’t wait to return!

Nice hotel with a good location
We stayed at Hotel Palais26 during our trip around Europe. The hotel has a nice antique feel to it, but it is still very clean and modernly furnished. The breakfast was very good with all the basic things, and also there was a chef that made omelettes and pancakes upon request. The omelette was one of the best I've ever had. The location is also very central to Villach. Overall our stay was great.

If you are driving your own car, don’t stay here.
In good conscious, I cannot recommend this hotel. It is in a pedestrian-only part of the town, which is nice once you finally get there. But...we had a rental car, needed to park and had to hike to find the hotel. (We got a parking ticket while looking, which cost alot and took a lot of time searching for police station, post office, etc. The receptionist gave us a simplistic map...”It’s just a left and 2 rights.” None of the streets on her map were on our GPS. Even with Google maps we drove in circles for a half hour. Finally saw a policeman, stopped and asked for directions. Even then, not so easy. Bed was hard, horrible pillow, but the walking neighborhood is quite nice. A pretty little town. Breakfast was chaotic—bowls for cereal the size of a teacup. And the cereal was stale. They do make omelettes, which my husband enjoyed. Left there, feeling kind of ignored and disappointed.
