Escape to Austrian Alps: Luxury Awaits at Feldkirch's Best Western Premier!

Escape to Austrian Alps: Luxury Awaits at Feldkirch's Best Western Premier! – My (Almost) Unfiltered Experience
Right, so Feldkirch. Picture postcard perfect. Cobblestone streets, that castle overlooking everything, the whole shebang. And the Best Western Premier? Well, it's supposed to be the cherry on top. Let's see if the whipped cream stays on the sundae, shall we?
Accessibility: The Gate to a Complicated Situation.
- Accessibility: Okay, this is important. The website claims accessibility. Elevator. Accessible rooms. But here's the human bit. Sometimes, "accessible" translates to "could be better". Check your specific needs before you book. Call them. Grill them. It's your sanity we're talking about!
- Wheelchair accessible: The elevator was functional, yes, but the hallways felt a tad narrow. Make notes to ensure it will met your needs.
Cleanliness and Safety: More Like “Pretend to be Clean”.
- Cleanliness and safety: This is where my inner germaphobe almost lost it. They say they're on top of it. Anti-viral cleaning products? Check. Staff trained in safety protocol? Supposedly. Room sanitization between stays? Yep. Daily disinfection in common areas? Fine. But you can’t see it. And even with an eye for cleanliness things still don't always meet the expectations. I saw one of the cleaning ladies, for the most part, was very nice and kept her station clean, but sometimes the cleaning was half done.
- Rooms sanitized between stays: Supposedly. I'm not saying there were biohazards. I'm just saying I brought my own wipes and thoroughly sanitized the remote. Don't judge me.
- Hand sanitizer: Available. Good. Use it.
- Hygiene certification: I didn't see any. Maybe I missed the memo.
Dining, Drinking, and Snacking: A Culinary Rollercoaster
- Restaurants: They have a restaurant. And breakfast. (More on that later).
- Breakfast [buffet]: Okay, so the breakfast. This is where things went off the rails in the best way. The buffet itself was a pretty standard continental affair. But the pastries. OMG. Flaky, buttery, melt-in-your-mouth goodness. I'm not kidding; I think I ate my weight in croissants. The coffee, well, it was coffee. Not life-changing, but it'll get you going.
- A la carte in restaurant: I did not try the a la carte dining, as my pockets were not that deep.
- Desserts in restaurant: The pastries! (See above).
- Poolside bar: I saw one. But it seemed it was not in use.
- Bar: Did not try so I cannot comment.
Services and Conveniences: The Perks and the Pitfalls
- Concierge: They were helpful. Answered my questions and booked me a taxi. Solid.
- Luggage storage: They had it. Perfectly functional.
- Daily housekeeping: My room was tidied. (See above for my cleanliness concerns.)
- Wi-Fi for special events: Good.
- Facilities for disabled guests: As mentioned above, be specific with it.
- Concierge: They were helpful. Answered my questions and booked me a taxi. Solid.
- Elevator: Working!
For the Kids: If You Have Them
- Family/child friendly: There were a few families, so I guess it is.
- Babysitting service: I didn't need it, but it did make me think.
Things to Do (Or Not to Do)
- Sauna/Spa/Steamroom/Massage: This, my friends, is where I sunk into pure, unadulterated bliss. The spa was lovely, the sauna was steamy, and the massage? Oh, the massage. It was like all the stress of travel (and life in general) was kneaded out of me. Seriously, book a massage.
- Swimming pool: The pool was a bit chilly, but the view was beautiful.
- Fitness center: I’m not sure if it has one, but it doesn't really matter now does it?
- Body wrap/Body scrub: If you are into that sort of thing they have it.
Available in all rooms: The Nitty Gritty
- Wi-Fi [free]: Worked. Thank heavens.
- Air conditioning: Essential. Check.
- Coffee/tea maker: Yes! Bless. And I did drink coffee. Don't judge me.
- Refrigerator: Useful for keeping your water cold.
- Bathrobes: You're in a luxury hotel, people! Wear the bathrobe.
- Hair dryer: Saved my hair.
- Desk: A desk for work.
- Additional toilet: Only some rooms.
- Towels: Plenty soft.
Getting Around: Easy Peasy (Mostly)
- Airport transfer: Available. I did not use it.
- Car park [free of charge]: Nice touch. Saves you some euros.
The Emotional Verdict: A Few (Minor) Glitches, But a Good Time.
Okay, so the Best Western Premier in Feldkirch isn't perfect. Some areas needed more attention. The cleanliness issues gave me slight anxiety. But overall, it was a comfortable stay. The location is fantastic, the staff were generally lovely, and those pastries… swoon.

Pigeon Forge Getaway: Hampton Inn & Suites Music Road Luxury!
Alright, buckle up buttercups, because we're about to dive headfirst into my utterly chaotic (and hopefully charming) adventure in Feldkirch, Austria, centered around the Best Western Premier Central Hotel Leonhard. Let's see if I can even remember what I did. My memory is, let's just say, "selective."
Feldkirch Fiasco: A Best Western & Bewilderment Bonanza
Day 1: Arrival and Alpine Anxiety (Plus Awkward Elevator Encounters)
Morning (ish): The journey began. Of course, it began late. As usual. I'm chronically "fashionably late," which translates to "slightly panicked and perpetually apologizing." Plane ride was uneventful, except the crying baby who seemed to have a personal vendetta against my eardrums. Already questioning my life choices.
Afternoon: Arrived at Feldkirch, which is postcard-perfect, by the way. Like, seriously, I felt like I'd stumbled into a Disney movie. Finding the Best Western Premier Central Hotel Leonhard was surprisingly easy, thankfully. The lobby was classy, the staff seemed happy (maybe a little too happy. Are they robots?). The check-in was quick, thankfully. I was starting to think I'd spend all day looking for my hotel.
Late Afternoon/Early Evening: This is where things got interesting (and by interesting, I mean slightly mortifying). The elevator. Oh, the elevator. Picture this: me, laden with luggage, trying to navigate the tiny space with two super-stiff German men who looked like they were carved from granite. We rode in silence. A long, awkward, elevator silence. I tried a friendly "schönen Tag!" (the extent of my German vocabulary, I’m afraid) and got only a curt nod in response. I felt like I should apologize for existing.
- Hotel Room: The room itself? Glorious. Seriously, the bed was like sleeping on a cloud. The view? Breathtaking. I swear, staring out the window at those mountains made me want to burst into tears (in a good way!).
- Dinner Mishap: Went down to the hotel's restaurant, which looked fancy. I ordered something with schnitzel because, when in Austria, right? Well, it was huge. I mean, the size of my face huge. I tried. Oh, God, did I try. Let's just say, I failed miserably. Halfway through, I was defeated. I sat there feeling like a gluttonous oaf. And it was too good to leave!
Evening: Wandered around the old town. Found a little brewery, ordered a beer (thankfully, that was the right size!). Sat outside, just soaking it all in. The cobblestone streets, the twinkling lights, the distant sounds of laughter… it was magical. Until a pigeon decided to relieve itself on my shoulder. Nature, people. Nature.
Day 2: Fortress Fest and a Fondue Fail
Morning: Determined to be a tourist, I hopped on a bus and went to the Schattenburg Castle. Okay, so maybe the "hopped on a bus" part involved a minor map-reading crisis (I have a terrible sense of direction), and a near-miss with what I think was a tram.
- Schattenburg Castle: The castle itself? Incredible. The history! The views! The… stairs. Good lord, the stairs. I was gasping for air by the time I reached the top, convinced I'd aged five years in the process. The museum was interesting, though. I particularly enjoyed the torture devices. (dark sense of humor, I know). The view of the city was even more impressive.
Lunch (and a Language Barrier Battle): Found a cute little cafe for lunch. Attempted to order a sandwich in my (atrocious) German. The waitress looked at me like I was speaking Martian. Eventually, with much pointing and gesturing, I managed to order…something. It turned out to be delicious, so, victory!
Afternoon: The Fondue Fiasco. Oh, dear lord. That fondue. I'd read that a fondue experience was a must. So, I found this restaurant. Charming, right? Wrong. The fondue was… well, let's just say it was an experience. It tasted okay, I guess. But I kept dropping bread in it. And, oh God, the bread. So much bread. I felt like I’d become a bread-eating monster. I was covered in cheese. My hair smelled like cheese. I think I might have become cheese.
Evening: Retreating back to the hotel. Crawling into bed and watching terrible TV. (They had a dubbed version of a show I love.)
Day 3: Farewell & Fantasies
Morning: One last stroll through the old town. Buying postcards that I’ll never send. Contemplating the meaning of life while sipping coffee. Feldkirch is so great! Honestly, I could easily live here (if I could afford it and spoke German).
Lunch: Packing, checking out. The staff were again very nice. I hope they didn't see me at my worst.
Afternoon: Departure. I wanted to stay longer. I wasn't ready to leave.
Reflections (Random Ramblings): The Best Western Premier Central Hotel Leonhard was a great base. Clean, comfortable, and in a perfect location. Feldkirch itself? Pure magic. A slightly chaotic, sometimes embarrassing, but absolutely unforgettable experience. Would I go back? In a heartbeat. (Though, I'll be practicing my German and my fondue-eating skills!)
So, there you have it. My Feldkirch adventure. A mess, sure, but a gloriously human mess. And hey - that fondue? It was so worth it. (Maybe).
Unbelievable New Orleans Stay: Homewood Suites French Quarter Steal!
So, Feldkirch. Where *is* that exactly? And is it, like, actually in the *Alps*? Because I'm seeing a LOT of mountains in the brochure...
Okay, picture this: You're in Western Austria, right on the border of Switzerland and Liechtenstein. Feldkirch is a charming little medieval town, cobblestone streets, the whole shebang. And YES, it's in the Alps. Like, REALLY in the Alps. The surrounding mountains are *majestic*. Seriously, I spent half my time just staring at them, jaw agape. My neck is still recovering. It's like God himself sculpted the scenery, then decided to add a touch of whimsy by scattering adorable little villages all over the place.
But, fair warning: Don't expect a bustling city. Feldkirch is more about quiet beauty and breathing in that crisp mountain air. It's about the *experience*. Which brings me to the hotel..."
Right, the Best Western "Premier." What exactly makes it... "Premier"? Is it really THAT fancy? I've stayed in Best Westerns before, and let's just say, "luxury" wasn't exactly the word I'd use.
Okay, this is where it gets... interesting. The "Premier" branding definitely raises expectations. And I'll admit, walking into the lobby, it *looked* the part. Swanky, modern, a little bit...sterile? Clean lines, polite staff, that unmistakable smell of expensive soap. My initial reaction? "Alright, this could be good."
The rooms themselves? Pretty darn nice. Spacious, well-appointed, decent view if you're lucky. (I wasn't, I got the parking lot. Still, mountains are just a short walk away, so it's not a huge deal, right?) The bed was comfy, which is a MAJOR win in my book. But "Premier?" Hmm... let's just say it was "premium" in the Best Western realm, not necessarily "Premier" as in, "Rolls Royce level of luxury." More like a very, very nice BMW. Does that make sense?
Let's talk food. Breakfast, specifically. Is it the standard continental fare, or are we talking about something more... Alpine? Do they have those delicious Austrian pastries?!
OH. MY. GOD. The breakfast! Okay, here's where the "Premier" thing *might* actually hold up. We're not talking dry toast and watery coffee here. This was a spread of epic proportions! Think mountains of fresh fruit, a dazzling array of cheeses and charcuterie (hello, prosciutto!), freshly baked bread, and, YES, the pastries! I'm drooling just thinking about it. Those little apple strudels? *Chef's kiss*.
I may have, possibly, *accidentally* eaten three. Don't judge me! And the coffee? Proper, strong Austrian coffee. Fueled my entire morning of mountain exploring. My only complaint? I wasn't hungry enough to sample *everything*. That's a good problem to have, though, right?
Okay, sounds alright. What about the location? Is it easy to get around and explore the area?
Location? Absolutely fantastic! Feldkirch itself is compact and walkable. You can wander the old town, visit the Schattenburg castle (seriously, do it!), and soak up the atmosphere without needing a car. The hotel is a short walk from the train station, which is GREAT for day trips.
I took the train to a couple of different villages in Switzerland, and it was a breeze. Plus, the scenery along the way... breathtaking. I spent half the time just staring out the window, practically levitating in my seat. If you're planning on exploring more remote areas you'll need a car.
Were there any downsides? Any annoying quirks or disappointments? The truth, please!
Alright, alright, the brutal honesty part. Yes, there were a few... minor inconveniences. The Wi-Fi, on one occasion, seemed to decide it didn't want to work. Cue frantic emails. Also, the air conditioning in my room was a bit noisy, which isn't ideal when you're trying to sleep. And the gym? Well, let's just say I've seen bigger broom closets. If you are a serious fitness buff, this's not the place for you.
But honestly, these are minor niggles. Nothing that seriously detracted from the overall experience. The staff was generally lovely and helpful, and the positives definitely outweighed the negatives. And honestly, the view of the mountains as I stepped out of the hotel in the morning made me forget all the small problems.
Would you go back? Would you *recommend* it? Spill the tea!
Without a doubt, YES! I absolutely would go back. The location is perfect the breakfast alone is worth the price. It's a great base for exploring the Austrian Alps, and the hotel itself is a comfortable and convenient place to stay. Did it live up to *every* aspect of "Premier"? Maybe not. But did it offer a genuinely enjoyable and relaxing experience with a stunning backdrop of mountains? Absolutely.
If you're looking for a hassle-free escape, a chance to breathe in some fresh mountain air, and eat a mountain of pastries, seriously, go. Your soul will thank you.
Okay, the pool situation. Did they have a pool? Because a dip after a day of hiking is always the best.
This is a tough one. Because I'm all about a refreshing dip after a long hike. And, sadly, no. They did *not* have a pool. Which, honestly, was a bit of a downer. You're in the mountains and you can't soak in anything after a day of walking? Nope, not a fan.
But! Feldkirch has public pools and some local spas, so it's not like you're completely out of luck. But if a hotel pool is a MUST-HAVE, this might not be the place for you. Still, I could have just stared at the majestic mountain view to get the same relaxing feeling, so it's not a problem.
Let's get even messier here. Think back on the whole experience. What's *one* thing that sticks out as the most memorable? Good or bad. What was the moment that really "made" the trip?
Okay, brace yourselves. This is going to sound cheesy, but it's true. I was having a bit of a... "moment." You know, one of those times when you're feeling a little lost, a little overwhelmed by life? I was solo tripping, and I'World Of Lodging
