“Spitz hotel night”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

So it was about a ten minute walk to the Square (shopping, dining) and the museum is across the street. Tram is in the Square as well. Modern techno style rooms and baths are a nice change. Parking is under hotel and quite convenient compared to most in this country. Wifi is livable as long as you don't have to send large files. English spoken by most the staff. Just like every where else in this country, their is no laundry room. They look at you crazy in Austria if you want to wash your own clothes and as I stay only 1 night at a time, I can't send them out, so I just keep buying more clothes. I am so ready for Finland!

“Minimalist chic room + good sleep”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 December 2011

I stayed at the Spitz Hotel for one night and had a great sleep. Hotel and rooms are minimalist-chic in decor. I appreciated the in-room books/info they supplied on Linz as well as the quarky sponge that mirrored the hotel's logo, for branding effects. The bed was very comfortable, and the bathroom had one of those anti-fog mirrors. Can't complain; a solid hotel.

“Quiet, great staff, comfortable stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 September 2011

The staff are tremendous - very helpful in everything we needed. The rooms are a bit small, but this is typical for Europe. The room was clean, quiet, and the bed was comfortable. no problems at all.

“Superbly designed hotel with charm and designer rooms-excellent service”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 July 2011

It started rough as the bedroom I got had'nt been done (most probably due to the last occupant who left a red banner "don't disturb"). Anyhow the reception immediately upgraded me to a superb masterroom with all kinds of lavishly designed furniture, bathromm & electronics.
Staff is very much helpfull and rooms as I said realy nice.
A good address when in Linz.
Just need a car as it is across the Danube river, few minutes from center by taxi

“Not really convincing”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 June 2011

This modern hotel is conveniently located, well connected by public transport, has a clean, functional and uncluttered design. It has top notch shower and bathroom fittings.
Sleeping comfort is not that great though. The entrance is on a pedestrian street, but the three other fronts of the hotel are adjacent to main roads. Traffic noise penetrated my room and prevented normal sleep.
Breakfast is poor, the majority of the offer being from lower quality range industrial products and packaged convenience staples. This is inexplicable in a region of Austria with among the very best dairy products and bread available. 80s pop tunes at headache level ruined breakfast anyway.
My main problem is the old mismatch. Top class furnishing vs low quality staff and service. Some entrepreneurs think that being design hotel relieves them from their duty to deliver performance and value.

Spitz Hotel, Geschäftsführer at Spitz Hotel, responded to this review
5 August 2011
Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts and impressions with regard to your recent stay at the Spitz Hotel via Tripadvisor.

I am very sorry, that the hotel did not meet your expectations. We are committed to providing the highest degree of service and I sincerely apologies, if we fell short on the delivery during your recent stay.

In reference to the location of the hotel, I would like to point out that the hotel is not adjacent to main roads on three sides. Your room was facing a one way side street, and I do apologies if you deemed the traffic noise so unbearable that it kept you from enjoying a good night’s sleep. We took the liberty to make a remark in our system, and for future reservations only rooms facing the quiet courtyard should be assigned.

In reference to your impression of us using low quality industrial food for breakfast, I can assure you that this is not the case. All our products are from local high quality businesses.

Your harsh words in reference to “low quality staff” have been discussed and addressed with the appropriate staff members and the associate team.

We are quite aware that my reassurance, that we truly strive to provide our guests with the highest level of service and comfort, will probably not change your perception. However it was important to us to respond, as we do take all guest comments to heart, and continue to evaluate ways in which to improve.
