The avant garde Augarten Hotel Art & Design may not be in the flossiest of locations, but it has friendly staff, intriguing garden sculptures, and the best restaurant in Graz. Magnolia is open Monday to Friday, 12 – 2 p.m. and 6 – 10 p.m. Special menus can run to 4-5 courses + “gifts from the kitchen”. Reservations are required.
