A small compact old city
The old city area is compact and all the main attractions are walkable. Some of the highlights are the clock tower and the art museum - with the quirky architecture. Within the old city, you can take any tram for free (the stops are indicated by the BIM sign).

Beautiful
It’s like ones stepped back in time. So very clean, ornate with beautiful architecture especially the Schlossberg that one can access via a funicular railway. A safe feeling in this pretty city.

Heart of the Graz City!
A place where you can relax though place is always busy due to the Center of the City of Graz. However, some outdoor "small parties" are always going on. You may just drop by any time without any plan and I'm sure you will like it.

Absolutely terrible

Nov 2021 • Couples

It can't be improved in any way. It's ugly, deprived and dirty. There is NOTHING worth visiting in Graz. It's full of homeless men in shop doorways, alcoholics on benches and nasty closed down shops. The streets are littered with cigarette ends and general rubbish. Some of the buildings could be beautiful but they are neglected and run down. It's a hovel. There are no decent eateries or coffee shops. No decent shops at all! Such a stark contrast to Salzburg which utterly
stunning... We came on a bank holiday when 90% of the town was closed, therefore it was also very bleak and whilst I may have missed any decent restaurants, I wouldn't want to eat in one anyway. No view, no beauty, no atmosphere and certainly nothing to make me want to return!

Lively but casual

Mar 2022

Plenty of shops, cafes, restos...typical fare for Old Towns in this part of Europe. Graz seemed quite quirky/artsy/hippie/youthful--again, for this part of Europe. A nice surprise.

Yes, very different from, say, Salzburg (as noted by the reviewer below), but different can be good, and it is in this case, I think. (Salzburg is stunning, but it's just a totally different place with a totally different vibe). Graz felt a lot more lively and casual.

In love with this place

Nov 2022 • Couples

Lots of shops, restaurants, cafes, side streets with romantic little restaurants. If you are there for a week, you have a lot to see here. Interesting buildings will take you back to an earlier time. This is a must see location in Graz.

Exceptional heritage in the heart of Graz

Jan 2020 • Family

Graz offers an exceptional heritage (rococo & baroque period). It really worth to go and visit the beautiful streets and buildings of the old city. All is very well preserved. It looks like a cinema deco but it’s real. Not to miss!

Beautiful picturesque old town

Jan 2019 • Family

Altstadt is a wonderful part of Graz. We were impressed with the architecture, facades of buildings, churches and palaces. Simply beautiful and enchanting. The old town of Graz is best explored on foot or by bicycle. The narrow historic streets and streets in the old town of Graz with beautiful cafes, bakeries ( Austria's oldest bakeries ) and restaurants are delighted to us. When we are walking down the Old Town like walking through the Middle Ages, Renaissance and Baroque. Because the spirit of the old era are still present. Graz is a city with countless museums, opera, home of modern art, galleries ..... Graz is also the capital of pleasure, because in many restaurants are well cooking and also in many pastry shops are very good desserts. Graz is romantic and charming.

Marvel in Graz

Jul 2015 • Family

The "Altstadt" or inner city of Graz is a marvel with all its old, well preserved and authentic buildings.
The inner city is for pedestrian only but the "Strassenbahn" (street train) is passing through.
Go for a stroll from "Hauptplatz" to "Jakominiplatz" through the "Herrengasse". Have a look of all the tiny ways going off and you will end up at another nice and remarkable place.
Graz Altstadt, a must see.

Pretty, charming, original

Sep 2012 • Couples

The Old Town a UNESCO World Heritage Site which becomes apparent when you wander in its network of lanes and alleys.
Its bigger than Salzburg Old Town but smaller than Prague`s Old Town with a interesting mix of architecture - spanning from Gothic to Art Noveau with a handful of contemporary buildings.
It is a good idea to join a walking tour as the intricate layout makes it easy to miss things and some of the beautiful courtyards are difficult to find.
If you venture outside Vienna then Graz is a must see.

The Altstadt of Graz is amazing. So many beautiful and interesting buildings. Also many opportunities for shopping, ice cream and relaxing. Great food places with local cuisine or also a lot of organic, local and vegan places.
