Easily reached by taxi from Graz airport (fly direct from Stansted), this place is a wonderland - a cross between Gaudi and Mondrian, hidden in the hills. All food organic, outdoor and indoor baths, massage, reflexology etc and all for 120 euro per night.

Acres and acres of land on which you can take a hike, horse riding, yoga, etc. Bliss, bliss, bliss!]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/10747 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/10235 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/10235 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/8765 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/8765 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/6911
The coffee is also very respectable. Order a verlängerter (say "eee hett gairn an kafay, an ferlengerten bitte").

A wonderful Graz institution, hanging in there in an age of yuppification.

It’s on Mariahilferstrasse, which is the street parallel to the river and one block away from it, behind the Kunsthaus (blue bubble). Stroll across the blue pedestrian bridge by the "island" and head through the nearest gap between the houses - the pub is at the back corner of the house on the left.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/6911 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/5715
There is both a lift up the inside of the hill and a funicular for those who can't face the walk.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/5715 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/4505 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/4505
