General information

The Hotel Schloß Dürnstein is very famous for its unforgettable functions, as e.g. weddings, birthday parties,

guests.

Civil weddings can take place either in our library (€ 250,00) our in the „Küffer Cellar‘‘ area (€ 300,00). This

wish has certainly to be announced at the civil registry office.

Our bigger function room is called „Rosensaal‘‘. This one is adjacent to the outside terrace and has got a

maximum seating capacity of 110 people. (minimum is 50 people)




Gelber Salon

The „Gelbe Salon‘‘ --- also in combination with the Biedermeier Saloon - is the smaller room providing space for

15 to 35 people. It is situated on the ground floor, next to the lobby.

We charge a fee of € 490,00 (Rosensaal) and € 320,00 (Gelber Salon) for preparing the function room for your

Sometimes, if the time frame permits, people ask for ideas to entertain their guests. Here are a few very nice possibilities:

Tours or on a smaller wooden boat from www.faehre-wachau.at

Blocking the hotel exclusively for a group is not possible except for the beginning/end of each season, more

precisely in the end of march/april or in the end of October.

Total costs

As we do not offer ‘‘function packages’’, we charge as per individual consummation. As soon as you tell us

some facts, e.g. number of people, budget for the menu, choice of wines, etc., we certainly give you an idea of

the total costs as per our experience.

website.

We can especially recommend our homebrand wines: ‘‘Riesling vom Schloß --- vinified by Toni Bodenstein,

Winery Prager’’ and ‘‘Blaufränkisch Schloß Dürnstein,Winery Gesellmann’’. A special discount of 10% will be

granted onto those wines if there is a minimum of 10 bottles per wine that have been consummated.

Please note that we do not accept to bring other wines in as those which are listed on our wine card.

Menu suggestions

In the following we present our menu suggestions, which can be varied as per your own preferences. Our chef

is at your disposal for any further and seasonal suggestions. Please note, that a festive dinner does not allow a

choice of more than 1 starter, 1 soup, 1 entrée, and 1 main course. If you like to add a second choice to one
