Michael and Maria, your hosts

The couple behind StayPassau

No agency. We furnished these flats ourselves, we run our small delivery company downstairs, and one of us always answers personally.

Our story
The apartments

Two ways to stay

Choose the courtyard flat on the first floor, or the one above it with a covered terrace and green garden. Same quiet building, five minutes from both rivers.

Why book direct

Same apartments, a better deal

Our best rate

Booking here skips the platform commission, so our direct price is usually a little lower than Airbnb or Booking.com. Same apartments, fewer fees in between.

A real person answers

Message us directly about early check-in, luggage drop-off, parking or where to eat. We host these apartments ourselves. We are not always there, but always available.

Check-in, your way

Key box entry any hour, at your own pace. Or tell us when you arrive and one of us welcomes you personally.

Of course you can still find us on Airbnb and Booking.com. But the direct price here is the one we'd rather give you.

Good to know

The questions we get most

Short answers, straight from us. Anything else? Just write to us.

Where exactly are the flats?

Grabengasse 15, in the middle of Passau's Old Town. Both flats are in the same house: the Altstadt Apartment on the first floor, the Garden Apartment directly above it on the second. Five minutes on foot to both rivers, two to the Stephansdom, about twelve to the main station. No lift, you come up a beautiful old spiral staircase.

Is there parking?

The house is in the pedestrian zone, so there is no parking at the door. For unloading, stop briefly at Theresienstraße 19, one minute away. Our guests get a free spot in a private garage, about 15 minutes on foot (details on request). Prefer closer? Zentralgarage is 8 minutes on foot, ca. 15 EUR per 24 h.

How does check-in work?

Check-in from 15:00, check-out by 12:00. Key handover your way: key box any time, or a personal welcome from one of us. Just tell us roughly when you arrive.

Are pets allowed?

Yes, pets are welcome in both flats. Just mention them when you book.

Is it quiet?

Yes. In the Altstadt Apartment all windows face the calm green courtyard, the Garden Apartment looks onto the garden from all rooms, and in the house it is quiet from 22:00 to 8:00. One honest note: it is an old building and it carries sound, so sometimes you hear the neighbours' footsteps (not voices).

Can we come by bike?

Yes, gladly. Free bike storage and charging in our office downstairs, access around the clock. Rental bikes via our partner Rent-a-Bike (Bahnhofstraße 29D): delivered for free to the house, ready to start in the morning. And the Danube cycle path runs right through Passau.

Can we book both flats for a bigger group?

Yes. The Garden Apartment is directly above the Altstadt Apartment, in the same house. Together you have room for up to 10 guests: four downstairs, six upstairs. Book both here, or write to us and we sort out the dates with you.
