Graz Experience Region

Graz Region – City Meets Green Surroundings

UNESCO old town, a green belt on the doorstep and short distances: the Graz region combines big-city flair with Styrian cosiness – and you live right in the middle of it.

What makes the Graz region special?

Graz is Austria’s second-largest city – yet pleasantly easy to get around. The old town is a UNESCO World Heritage site: the Uhrturm clock tower and Schlossberg, the lively Hauptplatz, the Renaissance Landhaushof courtyard, the Murinsel and the Kunsthaus all lie within walking distance of each other.

Around the city, things turn green: the local mountain Schöckl, Buschenschänke taverns in the Grazer Bergland, thermal spas and excursion spots are all close by. Add to that a lively culinary and coffee-house scene that has made Graz the “culinary capital”.

From our houses, you’re right in the middle of it all within minutes: live centrally, check in effortlessly with self-check-in, and explore the city on foot – or use it as your base for the green surroundings.
