Hotel Palais26

About

Hotel Palais26 is a historic gem in the heart of Villach, Austria, nestled on the bustling Hauptplatz 26. The palace, steeped in more than five centuries of history, has been revitalised with contemporary elegance, offering 70 rooms and suites that blend modern amenities—such as flat‑screen TVs, free Wi‑Fi, and optional air conditioning—with tasteful period details. Guests can start their day with a generous buffet breakfast beginning at 6:30 am, then explore the city on foot, or unwind in the on‑site sauna complete with steam bath. The hotel’s own restaurant, Charles, sits in the palace’s courtyard and combines a sunny terrace and a relaxed indoor patio. Guests can dine from a la carte on weekday evenings (2:00‑9:30 pm) or enjoy a full breakfast menu every day. The menu is curated by an experienced chef, and the restaurant also offers special catering for events and business lunches. For business travellers and groups, the Palais26 hosts well‑equipped seminar rooms—such as Salon Maggy and Salon Phil—that accommodate up to 70 participants, a sun‑terrace, and an indoor courtyard for up to 200 people. The venue also features a modern restaurant setting and a variety of catering options. A private car park is available inside the hotel, with a daily fee of €15 for cars and €10 for motorbikes, and a central location ensures easy access to public transport, the Lake Wörthersee, and other attractions in Carinthia. Whether you’re after a romantic city stay, a family getaway, or a professional conference space, Hotel Palais26 offers a unique blend of historic charm and contemporary convenience in the very centre of Villach.
