Located at the western gate to the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Wachau, the hotel-restaurant “Zum Schwarzen Bären” blends harmoniously into the historic town center. Emmersdorf is located directly on the Danube, just 3km from Melk and is the ideal starting point for exploring the beautiful Danube valley and the surrounding idyllic destinations.
The Wachau is one of the most beautiful and best-known regions in Austria. Thanks to the comparatively mild climate, the Wachau is also one of the most important wine-growing regions in the country. The best way to explore the area is by bike or on foot. The Danube cycle path leads almost directly past the hotel. Unforgettable moments and views are guaranteed. On a Wachau boat trip, you can marvel at the breathtaking scenery from the comfort of the water.
