"The Leonardo Boutique Hotel is situated in a perfect location just a few minutes walk from Hauptplatz in the Alstadt, Landstraße, the pick up point for the sightseeing train and Pöstlingbergbahn, Buy a combo ticket and take in a Danube cruise too! There are bars and restaurants on Hauptplatz as well as bakeries where you can purchase freshly made sandwiches and cakes. Don’t forget to try the Linzertorte at Jendrak! For those of a futuristic mindset, the Ars Electronika museum is a must. The residents of Linz are lovely people, as are the staff at the hotel. Rooms at the Leonardo are very comfortable, and provide everything you need for a short stay. If you prefer a cup of tea in the morning instead of the coffee machine, you can obtain a kettle at reception.
Transfers to and from the airport are around £23 in an Uber. Bus 601 from the airport to Linz main railway station is about €5 pp but the bus only runs every hour.
I would highly recommend Linz for an enjoyable city break.
NB. We travelled on 24th August for five days. The weather was glorious - 30 degrees during the day and balmy in the evening."
