Wonderful boutique hotel in Vienna

Excellent location and super friendly staff. The rooms are all unique as it was a former apartment building. Cozy bar and games room for pre or post dinner drinks. Room temperature was perfect, but for those particular about AC know it is centrally controlled. Great restaurants nd cafes close by.

The hotel is centrally located on a quiet one-way street. The service is superb and the building is extremely well-maintained. There's great attention to detail here and you won't be disappointed. The wifi is not the best but everything else made up for it.

Super hotel

Beautiful room in stylish hotel. Well located in quite spot within walking distance of city centre and museums. Didn’t bother catching public transport during our stay, other than to and from airport, which was easier than we had anticipated. Staff very friendly and breakfast was great, well worth the money. Would recommend.

8/10 Very good

Great location, nice courtyard area. Staff were very attentive and courteous. Buffet breakfast was excellent with a good assortment of quality foods.
Robin, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Clean and very spacious room with everything we needed and wanted. My only feedback there is that the hair dryer was so old and weak that it wasn't effective and needs replacing. The location is quiet and safe, and close to an UBahn station, and about 20 minute walk to the downtown core. Tons of good restaurants and shops nearby. We had our most positive and memorable interactions with staff at this location. Nathan at the hotel bar provided us with lots of good information on things to see & do, and even wrote lots of tips down for us. Yorgi (unfortunately I cant remember the correct spelling) was also a friendly face at check in and check out and made us feel welcome.
Meredith, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel was within walking distance of most everything. The hotel was very clean and quiet. The staff were excellent, very friendly and so helpful. The breakfast buffet was fabulous. Will definitely stay here again and highly recommend the hotel to anyone thinking about booking here

Excellent experience staying at this hotel. The service, room, and hotel staff friendliness was superb.
ILEANA, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

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.
Samarth, 4-night trip
