Schiffmeisterapartment Melk – Where Design Meets History 🍂 AUTUMN SPECIAL: Stay 3 nights, pay only 2! These historic walls have stories to tell – and you’ll be part of them. In the listed Schiffmeisterhaus from the 16th century, just a few steps from the Danube and Melk’s old town, you’ll experience a unique atmosphere where modern design meets centuries of tradition. Natural materials, clean lines and thoughtful details create a sense of home – perhaps even better than home. The 76 m² apartment combines historic charm with modern comfort.

The location is ideal to explore the cultural and culinary highlights of the Wachau region – in every season.

The apartment is located right in the heart of Melk’s old town – between the impressive Melk Abbey, towering above the city, and the picturesque Danube River. The historic Fischergasse leads directly to the old riverside where the shipmasters once lived. Today, this is where cyclists set off on the famous Danube Cycle Path or where visitors enjoy a leisurely boat trip through the Wachau. Just a few steps away, you’ll find cozy cafés such as the popular Café Central or the Rathauskeller Café with its lovely garden terrace. For culinary highlights, I recommend Restaurant Zur Post or Koloman at Melk Abbey. And of course, no visit to the Wachau would be complete without a glass of regional wine – best enjoyed at one of the traditional wine taverns (Heurigen) in nearby Spitz or Weißenkirchen. For excursions, you can explore not only Melk Abbey, but also the Aggstein Castle Ruins, Göttweig Abbey, or take a trip to Krems and Dürnstein. Active travelers can cycle or hike along the Danube, or discover the Wachau from the water on a scenic boat tour. Upon your arrival, I’ll be happy to share personal tips to make your stay in the Wachau truly special!
