Frequently asked questions about unique stays in Austria

  • What are some hidden gems to explore in Austria?

    For a truly off-the-beaten-path experience, consider the Salzkammergut region, with its stunning lakes and charming villages like St. Wolfgang and Hallstatt. Further afield, the Hochschwab mountains offer incredible hiking and breathtaking views, less crowded than the more popular Alps. For something different, explore the charming town of Krems an der Donau, a historic wine region with beautiful architecture and excellent wineries.
  • Which airport should you arrive at in Austria?

    Vienna International Airport (VIE) is the largest and best connected, serving as a great hub for onward travel within Austria. However, depending on your final destination within Austria, other airports like Salzburg Airport (SZG) or Innsbruck Airport (INN) might be more convenient and save you travel time.
  • What is generally accepted for payment in Austria, cash or card?

    Credit and debit cards are widely accepted in Austria, particularly in tourist areas and larger establishments. However, it's always a good idea to carry some cash, especially for smaller shops, markets, or rural areas where card acceptance might be limited.
  • How would you describe the safety of road conditions and driving habits in Austria?

    Austria boasts well-maintained roads, particularly on the motorways (Autobahnen). However, mountain passes can be narrow and winding, requiring careful driving, especially in winter conditions. Austrian drivers generally adhere to traffic laws, but be aware of potential speed restrictions and the prevalence of cyclists and motorcyclists on the roads.
  • What steps should you take if your passport goes missing in Austria?

    Immediately report the loss to the nearest Austrian police station (Polizei). They will provide you with a report, which you'll need to obtain a replacement passport from your embassy or consulate. Contact your embassy or consulate as soon as possible to begin the process of getting a replacement passport.
  • Where should you spend a week to experience the best of Austria?

    A week in Austria could ideally involve exploring Vienna for its culture and history, then heading to the Salzkammergut region for stunning scenery and relaxation. Alternatively, you could focus on a specific region like Tyrol, exploring Innsbruck and its surrounding mountains for hiking and outdoor activities.
  • Where should you spend a weekend in Austria for the best experience?

    Salzburg makes for a fantastic weekend getaway. Explore its baroque architecture, visit Mozart's birthplace, and enjoy the stunning views of the Hohensalzburg Fortress. Alternatively, a weekend in Vienna allows you to experience some of its key attractions like Schönbrunn Palace and St. Stephen's Cathedral.
  • What festivals in Austria are highly recommended for visitors?

    The Salzburg Festival, a renowned classical music festival, is a highlight in summer. The Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra's New Year's Concert is a world-famous event. Many smaller, regional festivals celebrating local traditions and culture take place throughout the year, so checking local event listings closer to your travel dates is recommended.
  • Does Austria have Uber or comparable ride-hailing services?

    While Uber isn't officially operating in Austria, there are several local ride-hailing apps like mytaxi and Free Now that offer similar services in many cities.
  • What’s the top spot in Austria for favourable weather conditions?

    The warmest and sunniest regions are generally found in the south and east, particularly along the shores of Lake Neusiedl and in the Burgenland region. However, weather can be unpredictable, so checking forecasts before your trip is always recommended.
