St. Peter Hotel Dietrichsteinerhof

When we checked in the room we were given had a small double bed, when I inquired about the bed size and asked if a larger bed was possible I was shown a room with a nice large double bed, perhaps the most comfortable bed I have ever slept on.

Unfortunately... As I often do I was traveling with my dog, we'd just come from a very hot stay in Italy and I think he was a bit out of sorts. He sleeps in the car when traveling and the hotel suggested parking near the street. Early the first morning a neighbor walked by with their dogs and mine started barking, an early wake up, threats of police and a long walk. I then thought better to park more enclosed. The night went well, an early walk no problem, but while I was showering someone must have approached dogs food bowl, he barked, the owner called the room, pounded on the door, I came and calmed him but now after two nights and two unfortunate episodes with my partner, I decided we shouldn't risk a third night and would leave after breakfast. Speaking of breakfast. For a four star hotel this was a bit simple. Nice that it was table served but when the second day the same exact tray of meat and cheese arrived, along with the exact same bowl of yogurt, with a spoonful of muesli, the same selection of bread and rolls... a cold breakfast... all was fine but nothing special, no fresh cooked eggs, no offer other than coffee or tea and then not cappuccino or espresso. So we checked out after breakfast, paid for our third night and third breakfast and though they were told we were checking out because the problems with the dog caused too much stress - for them, for us - there was no offer from the hotel to discount the dropped night. If there had been a separate parking area away from the rooms and away from the street there would have been no problem. If they had better divided the garden area so that a pet could stay in the room and garden no problem. Needless to say I was a bit disappointed with the end situation. I believe the stress was a shared responsibility and felt they should have offered a discount for the unused night and meal. Then again the prospect of a third breakfast exactly the same as the first two, perhaps better only a one night...
