8/10 Very good

Hotel was very central, but just off the tourist paths, so it was quiet, safe, air-conditioned and ideal for our needs. Staff were helpful and accommodating. The rooms were small but clean and had all the mod-cons necessary for a lovely stay. I'd book there again.

We stayed at the hotel for five days in June 2025. I have to say the location was fantastic and the friendliness of the hotel staff was second to none! I highly recommend this hotel if you are looking for a city centre hotel!

Nice stay at Elaya hotel city center

Excellent location, just 5 min walk to the cathedral. Nice hotel with a great service.
Jacek, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Having normal expectations of a hotel, you’re made to feel like a massive inconvenience. Checked in and was given a room with 2 large windows that were fully open. Fine, but hen we realised the heating was broken, and the blind on one of the windows was broken (stuck open), so room was freezing (also smelt of pee in bathroom). Staff, after some under their breath moaning, moved us to a new room. After first night, had no sleep as there was only 1 pillow per person in the room (you’d expect some spare in a wardrobe). When I asked for extra pillows the next night, the staff made out like it was a massive deal and basically complained about having to fetch them. Basically, the location of the hotel is perfect, but the staff or management aren’t really to thank for that. They’re responsible for ensuring you have a good stay, and they completely lacked any decent hotel management qualities in that respect.

Chihhao, 7-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Elaya in Vienna city center. Waking up and walking right around the corner to St. Stephen's cathedral was a prime location. The price was competitive and fair. Very modern and beautiful accommodation. We were concerned before our stay with some of the reviews commenting on the AC not being reliable or working, when we got to our room it did seem stuffy but the front desk staff came up right away to make sure it was functioning correctly, cleaned the filter, and gave us a fan (which we never ended up needing). So we were very comfortable during our stay. I'd recommend this hotel to anyone going to Vienna!
Sara, 7-night trip

It's a small hotel. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Convenient location. Very close to subway stations and walking distance from lots of attractions, restaurants, and shopping.
