Austria Trend Hotel Europa Graz

“Nice modern hotel in great location”

This hotel is perfect for those arriving by train as right across the road from the main station, probably the closest hotel.

This hotel is perfect for those arriving by train as right across the road from the main station, probably the closest hotel. Several places to eat and drink if arriving late as I was, though it's a decent walk to all the main sites, prob 1.5 km, but as it's so close to the station there are multiple tram and bus options. Didn't have breakfast there as was 19 EUR which is very expensive for a buffet breakfast. Rooms were nice and modern, although something very weird. My bed was vibrating, the same as you experience when there is music with a heavy bass underneath you. Fortunately there was another single bed in the room so I swapped and all was fine. I still can't explain it :) But would highly recommend if coming by train, especially when there for 24 hrs like I was, but if staying several days you may want to stay somewhere closer to the old town.

“Quite adequate and comfortable”

A brief one night stay at the hotel while travelling through Europe, hotel was easy to find as it was directly opposite the main railway station. Staff were polite and friendly and the room there was quite fine and no complaints.

“Nice rooms, but oddly hot and crazy expensive breakfast”

Despite its bland exterior the interior is modern and fresh. We stayed twice, once on the second floor and once on the third. The second floor room was reasonably spacious and comfortable. The third floor room was very spacious and accommodated two suitcases being left open. The rooms are clean.... more

Despite its bland exterior the interior is modern and fresh. We stayed twice, once on the second floor and once on the third. The second floor room was reasonably spacious and comfortable. The third floor room was very spacious and accommodated two suitcases being left open. The rooms are clean. As others have noted, the rooms are unusually hot and the thermostate/air conditioning does not address the issue. Our rooms were at the back but the second floor has a large flat roof under the window so opening the window on that floor doesn't feel safe. If you stay, get a room on the third floor or above so you can leave the windows open. Road noise is not bad. This hotel is by no means a poor choice but I explore other choices were I to stay again simply because of the poor A/C issue. Another thing to consider: breakfast costs an eye watering 16 euros per person and the choices in no way justify the cost. As others have also noted, being directly across the road from the hauptbanhof makes taking trams into town a breeze.

“A little disappointed”

We stayed at the Hotel Europa one night on a visit to Graz. I'll have to say I was a little disappointed in this hotel.

We stayed at the Hotel Europa one night on a visit to Graz. I'll have to say I was a little disappointed in this hotel. The hotel is very convenient to the Hauptbahnhof and was a comfortable walk to the downtown. The air conditioning/fan in the room did not work though, so we had to have the windows open all night. Since our room was directly facing the Hauptbahnhof, it was very noisy.
