We curate your travel experience
Hotelchecker24 is Austria’s leading independent magazine for luxury and boutique hotels. Our editorial team travels the world, evaluates hotels according to strict criteria, and shares honest, well-founded recommendations.
Honest recommendations. No compromises.
Hotelchecker24 was founded in 2018 with a simple promise: to review hotels the way a good friend with insider knowledge would—openly, honestly, and without any advertising pressure.
We consistently reject paid placements and sponsored content. Every hotel we recommend has been personally vetted by our editors. We take the time that others don’t.
The result: A curated selection of accommodations you can trust—whether for a city break, a relaxing getaway in the Alps, or a Far Eastern adventure.
