A real temporary home!
In the PostStation not far from Ottensheim's market square, the mail literally goes off. The building, which is more than 700 years old, has been carefully revitalized and a fascinating connection between the past and the future has been created. There are 4 different apartments available.
Host and “post master” Reinhold is a big fan of tarot. No matter which variant – he knows and likes to play them all. There are a total of 11 unique Tarock motifs in this typically Austrian card game. The post hostels are named after the first 4: Pagat, Uhu, Kakadu and Marabu. If you want to learn more about Tarock, you should have a chat with Reinhold.

Cockatoo
The Kakadu apartment offers clean, separate conditions thanks to two separate rooms: in the living and dining area, the multi-layered wall plaster gives an idea of the varied history of the house, while in the bedroom you snuggle up to the headboard from the old dance floor of the ballroom.

eagle owl
The world belongs to the brave - that means the inscription on the tarot card Owl. And happiness is sure to be found in the apartment on the courtyard side! Because while you relax on the chairs in the old music room, the mighty plane trees of the former guest garden rustle gently in the wind in front of the window.

The prices of 245 euros per week (corresponds to a daily rate of 35 euros) or 840 euros per month (corresponds to a daily rate of 28 euros) are all inclusive! Means: You can fully enjoy all the advantages of the hostels. Also included is the use of the washing machine and dryer as well as a thorough cleaning of the apartment once a week.
Post hostels are intended for individuals. However, each of the 4 hostels is equipped with a wide bed (160 cm) and a sofa bed - so they offer enough space for up to 3 people.

How do check-in and check-out work?
Monday is the big changeover day in the Post hostels. From 2 p.m. the 4 hostels can be occupied. Check-in on other days is only possible by prior arrangement. There is a key safe for each post hostel. Each guest receives a generated code for the duration of their stay.
Check-out is even easier:
If you want to check out before Monday, no problem either. Just let us know, leave the door to your hostel open and the key inside. However, you should vacate your hostel by 10 a.m. on Monday at the very latest.
Please get in touch for more information.
