The hotel was okay for what we needed. All staff with the exception of one were excellent. The younger guy on the desk on arrival perhaps could have been a bit more welcoming and given a bit more information about our stay. Would have been really nice to have a kettle in the room or access to the coffee machine available throughout the day. At times it was so cold and wanted to just come back to the room and relax but a hot drink would be nice. The rooms were generally clean. Location was good for the Christmas market and not too far from the airport. Lots of coffee shops, noodle bars, kebabs and pharmacies but choices of restaurants were limited..

Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Reception staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast was okay but the bread wasn’t always fresh. The room attendant didn’t always provide clean towels but hung the used ones back up if they weren’t dirty. The room attendant didn’t always provide new toilet rolls even when there were none left. The safe didn’t have instructions in English and after making the reception aware, nothing happened. I found it difficult to get to sleep as the trams ran right outside my bedroom window. I was woken up earlier than I would have liked because of this. The WI-FI was poor and I ended up using my data as a work-around.

Although not in the centre of Vienna, the hotel is within easy walking distance of the Hofburg and other sites. The restaurants around the hotel are a little cheaper also because they aren’t on the tourist radar. The staff were very accommodating and pleasant to talk to. The hotel itself is very nice, the dining area in particular is well decorated. The breakfast was good, with muesli, fruit, hams and cheeses on offer as well as cooked eggs. My room was modern and clean, the bathroom had a slightly odd layout and the shower was a little grotty (not dirty but just typical discolouration in older showers). I really enjoyed my stay and would visit again if in Vienna.

Room 7

We had room 7, which is on the roadside so you can hear the trams. A little loud, but bearable. Main issue was the bathroom fan would come on with the light switch and would squeak rather high pitched for 3-5 minutes afterwards, even after turning the light off.

Nice hotel, good location

The hotel is in a good location, within walking distance to the town hall (and Christmas markets!). Hotel is very pretty inside, check in staff were helpful and friendly and rooms were comfortable and clean. A good base for a shopping trip with friends!

Hotel close to the university campus and tram stop directly in front of hotel.Good room size. Bathrooms require some modernising. Staff were very nice and welcoming. Shops and restaurants near by. ~25 min walk to centre of the city. However, all nearby shops are closed early on a Saturday and closed completely on Sunday.

Decent for price

Best part of this hotel are the employees, very friendly and helpful. The hotel is actually on a second floor of an apartment building, which is kind of odd. The rooms were tight but OK. Our room had a lot of spider webs and towels were ripped and old. Also, the TV had no channels so it was a bit boring at night. However, the location is decent - 20min walk to center and there are few shops and fast food restaurants near the property. Overall, the rooms are OK for the price.
