Hotels in Burgenland, Austria

Burgenland is Austria's easternmost region, bordering Hungary, with a continental climate: summers often reach 86 degrees Fahrenheit (30 degrees Celsius) and winters drop to 28 degrees Fahrenheit (-2 degrees Celsius). It's famous for its wine and Lake Neusiedl, Europe's largest steppe lake, where you can windsurf and sail in summer or hike the reedy shore in winter. In spring, you can cycle through the vineyards around Rust and taste the local Blaufränkisch wine, while winter brings quiet birdwatching for great egrets and cranes at the lake's national park.
