Best Western Hotel Strasser Overview

First Impressions

Walking into Best Western Hotel Strasser, you immediately get that feeling of a well-run neighborhood hotel that knows exactly what it’s doing. It’s not trying to be something it isn’t — this three-star property in Graz has that comfortable, unpretentious vibe that makes you feel like you’ve made a smart choice. The lobby is clean and welcoming, with staff who actually seem to remember returning guests (and trust me, there are quite a few of them). You can tell right away that this place has figured out the formula for keeping people happy without any unnecessary fuss.

Location & Getting Around

The Gries district location is honestly one of those spots that grows on you the more you explore. You’re positioned perfectly on Eggenberger Gürtel, which means you can easily walk into the historic center or catch public transport to anywhere else you want to go. What I really appreciate is that you’re close enough to the action but far enough away that you’re not dealing with tourist crowds right outside your door. Couples especially seem to love this setup — and I can see why, since you get that authentic Graz neighborhood feel while still being incredibly well-connected to everything that matters.

The Room Experience

The rooms are exactly what you’d expect from a solid Best Western property — clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully laid out. Nothing fancy, but everything works properly, which is honestly more than you can say for a lot of places. The beds are genuinely comfortable (I’m pretty picky about this), and the bathrooms are modern enough that you don’t feel like you’re staying in someone’s outdated guest room. What really stands out is the attention to practical details — good lighting for reading, enough outlets where you actually need them, and blackout curtains that do their job.

Breakfast & Practical Perks

The buffet breakfast is one of those things that just makes your morning easier — there’s enough variety to keep you happy, and the quality is consistently good. You know what I really appreciate though? The fact that they have their own parking right at the hotel. If you’ve ever tried to find parking in European city centers, you’ll understand why this is such a relief. It’s one less thing to worry about, especially when you’re trying to explore Graz and the surrounding region at your own pace.

Why Guests Keep Coming Back

There’s something to be said for a hotel that has more repeat visitors than most other properties — it means they’re doing the fundamentals really well. The staff genuinely seems to care about your experience, the location delivers on its promise of convenience, and everything just works the way it should. It’s the kind of place where you know exactly what you’re getting, and that consistency is exactly what makes it worth returning to when you’re back in Graz.
