As a bridgehead, Linz owes a good deal of its prosperity to the Danube. Austria's first train ran from Linz to Budweis in 1832. Railways facilitated the installation of industries between the Old Town and the confluence of the Danube and the river Traun, namely the Austrian United Steelworks and the chemical industry. Linz was a Roman settlement and was equally important in the medieval salt trade, being situated at this important crossroads site. Steigenberger MAXX Hotel is located directly on the bank of the river Danube, close to the city centre and with a fantastic view on the Poestlingberg. This hill is 537 metres high and offers the best view of the city and its surroundings. Room rate: 55.0
