We had a bit of a service complaint on the first night but the hotel fixed it and more than made up for it. The location is great, easily accessible to underground, tram as well as hop-on hopoff tours. It is 10 mins walk from the main museums. The morning breakfast, should you opt in, also has a good variety.

We had a 3 night stay in this hotel. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The room was pleasant and clean. The bed was comfortable. The hotel was around 15-20 minutes walk from many of the main tourist spots in Vienna. There is not a restaurant for dinner but plenty of places not too far away. The hotel was being renovated externally but this did not disrupt our stay.

This is the second time I have stayed at this wonderful hotel. I spent six days there two years ago and this time I was there for 10. It’s a beautiful building, and the hotel has amazing service, friendly staff, and a lovely breakfast buffet, and beautiful garden to enjoy it in. I will definitely be back. it’s definitely worth paying a bit extra to have the Gustav Klimt-themed art nouveau room!
