This delightful venue is nestled in the heart of the vibrant art alley, and it completely surpassed our expectations! The thoughtful amenities made our stay even more enjoyable, and we loved how convenient the location was, with easy access to all the nearby attractions. From start to finish, it was a truly wonderful experience. The breakfast was fantastic, and the staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. We can't wait to return!❤️#highlytorecommend#@

Nice location at the bank of Donau

The location is great. We can see Donau from our window. The room is remodeled spacious - we booked cormfortable room which is larger than standard room. Unfortunately, the bathroom is very tiny and sqeecy. Breakfast is ok and peolle can site outside seeing the Donau while eating. Parking is very limites and space is very tight. In general, a nice stay.

I can’t say enough good about Hotel Residenz. The staff were friendly and VERY helpful In answering our questions and helping us when needed. The room was clean, quiet and exactly what we had hoped for. The included breakfast surpassed anything I could have expected and for 2 plant based eaters, there were more than enough choices. I’ll stay here again in a heartbeat next time in Passau

A cosy stay with excellent breakfast

Our stay certainly lived up to expectations and the breakfast exceeded them. A better breakfast display of really tasty produce than we have experienced in many more expensive 5 star hotels. The hotel has a great location for the Old town and Christmas market. Our rooms,l were spacious and quiet with comfy beds and very clean bathrooms with lots of hot water. We would definately stay again.

Old Passau is a wonderful place. Lovely hotel facing the Danube River. Excellent rooms with a view of the castle on the other side of the Danube. Only negative is the bathtubs are very slippery so beware of falling.
