Austria Hotels

Austria is situated in central Europe and is a “landlocked” country bordered by Germany and Czech Republic to the north, Slovakia and Hungary to the east and Slovenia/Italy/Switzerland and Liechtenstein in the west. It’s around thirty two thousand square miles and boasts a population of eight million people, most of whom speak German or, to a lesser extent, Austro-Bavarian. The climate in the north of Austria is continental, but in the Austrian Alps it’s generally colder than in Switzerland’s mountains. The Dirndl is a traditional dress for women and lederhosen shorts and a jaunty hat with a feather are traditional for men. The local beers are celebrated annually in all the local Tavernas, during September and October! There’s skiing in the Austria Alps – try Kitzbühel – a picturesque town with many welcoming ski lodges.

There’s also a chance to visit all of the film locations used in the making of “The Sound of Music” in and around Salzburg – not to be missed!Vienna – city of music – is the capital of Austria and, apart from the famous pastries; you should visit the surrounding vineyards, try the amazing coffee, cheese and sausage. No trip would be complete without sampling the amazing art, music and culture of Vienna – a fabulous city from which so many of the world’s famous artists hailed.
