Your stay

Since 1908 Hotel-Restaurant »Zum Schwarzen Bären« is owned by the Pritz Family.300 years ago, in 1609, the house was named »Whärzhaus zum Schwarzen Bären«. Even today the arched ceiling of the guestroom is a visible reminder of former times when the room was used as stalls for the horses which pulled the ships up-river.During the last 100 years, since it has been owned by the Pritz Family, this treasured country guest house at the western entrance to the World Heritage Site ‚Wachau Valley‘, has continously improved in size and quality.By now, 50 guest rooms at 4 star level (Austrian rating), five holiday apartments and a spa at a size of 400 m² are offered for leisure travellers. For seminars, meetings or corporate events, six professionally equipped meeting rooms are available.First mentioned in records in 1670, the hotel is an integral part of the history of Emmersdorf – the charming Wachau Valley village, where it is located.
