NH Graz City

NH Graz City Overview

First Impressions

Walking into NH Graz City, you immediately get that feeling of being in the right place at the right time. The lobby has this modern Austrian vibe — clean lines, warm wood accents, and staff who actually seem happy to see you. It’s one of those four-star hotels that doesn’t try too hard to impress but somehow does anyway. The building itself sits perfectly on Karmeliterplatz, and honestly, the location alone makes this place worth considering. From the moment you arrive, the welcoming atmosphere sets the tone for your entire stay.

Location & Neighborhood

Here’s what I love about staying here — you’re literally in the heart of Graz‘s old town, but on a quieter square that doesn’t get the tourist chaos. Karmeliterplatz has this lovely local feel with cafes where actual Austrians grab their morning coffee. You can walk to Hauptplatz in about three minutes, hit the Schlossberg funicular in five, and there’s a tram stop right around the corner if you need it. The couples’ rating of 9.7 for location makes total sense — it’s romantic without being touristy, if you know what I mean. The neighborhood truly offers the best of both worlds for travelers seeking authentic experiences.

The Room Experience

The room experience at NH Graz City is what you’d expect from this quality establishment — thoughtfully designed spaces, comfortable beds, and those little touches that show someone actually thinks about how travelers live. Large windows let in plenty of light, and the bathrooms are modern without being sterile. What surprised me was how quiet everything stays, even though you’re right in the city center. The air conditioning works properly (not always a given in Austria), and there’s decent workspace if you need to catch up on emails. Each room is equipped with premium amenities that enhance your comfort throughout your visit.

Breakfast Worth Waking Up For

I’ll be honest — hotel breakfasts can be hit or miss, but NH Graz City actually gets it right. The buffet spreads across several stations with proper Austrian breads, local cheeses, and surprisingly good coffee. They’ve clearly put thought into dietary restrictions too — solid vegan and gluten-free options that don’t feel like afterthoughts. The breakfast room gets busy around 8:30, so either go early or embrace the social atmosphere. The quality and variety of offerings make this meal a genuine highlight of your stay.

Why Guests Keep Coming Back

There’s something to be said for a hotel that has more repeat guests than most others — it means they’re doing the fundamentals right without any flashy gimmicks. The staff remembers preferences, the location never gets old, and you start to feel like you have your own little base in Graz. It’s not trying to be the fanciest place in town, but it nails that sweet spot of comfort, location, and genuine hospitality that keeps people booking return visits. This consistent excellence across all aspects of the guest experience is what truly distinguishes NH Graz City from its competitors.

Reviews of NH Graz City

• Gillian from United Kingdom (9/10)

  the location in the old town is great, we walked to most of the places of interest. The room was spacious and we had a lovely view. Even though the hotel is centrally located, our room was very quiet. The staff were pleasant and helpful and we enjoyed a drink in the hotel bar as it had a good atmosphere. The breakfast was good but not necessary as there were loads of nice cafes around.

• Vadim from Israel (9/10)

  The bathtube been very strange – I could not start fill the bath without entering in the bathtube. Also after the long staying in the bath (more than hour) the electricity was shutdown in my room (maybe because of the timer) and I need to re-enter in the room and then the electricity return.
