Nettes Hotel mit guter Lage & Whirlpool. Man sollte nur darauf achten, ein Zimmer nach hinten heraus zu bekommen.

Nice place. I wish they had non-smoking rooms. Breakfast was good. Staff was very helpful. Maybe a bit overpriced, but location is really great for walking to sights.

This is my second stay at this hotel and it was just as good as the first time. I recommend this place to anyone staying in Vienna.

It would be better to provide rooms with TV-sets and refregirators.

We expected less from the ensuite room because of its relatively low price per night. That's why we were more than positively surprised to see our room. It was small, but very cozy and nicely decorated - and there was a hot

Location and breakfast was great! However the walls were so thin, I could hear my neighbors pretty clearly. This is not the hotel for light sleepers...

So you have to toss up between having a really hot room, or opening the windows, but then you can't sleep anyway because the train and traffic is way too noisy. So we would probably go somewhere else next time. There are some positives in that it is close to shops and train station. Breakfast was also good.close

Nicely located, with a good breakfast, though the decor seems a little dated. This hotel aims for a slightly older clinetel I think but generally I'd recommend it

Everything was fine, except one detail. There was no door between the room and the bathroom. I didn't mind being there with my sister, but for someone else it can be a very disapointing 'detail' which is not indicated in the hotel information. Thanx.

Good location but very noisey at night as there is train line outside the front of the hotel which screeches to hault in the middle of the night. No a/c so very hot and had to keep window open, thus very loud noise

DO NOT STAY HERE! Most rooms are rented out for a few hours for men and their 'paid for guests'. There is a maid on hand to change sheets 24 hours a day. DO NOT STAY HERE!

Most rooms are rented out for a few hours for men and their 'paid for guests'. There is a maid on hand to change sheets 24 hours a day. DO NOT STAY HERE! The walls are paper thin and YOU WILL be woken at least once during the night by the sounds of the maid making up one of the rooms on your floor, guests checking in at ridiculous hours, their wine arriving and then an hour or so of screaming and laughing coming from at least one of the rooms on your floor. Vienna is a beautiful city and staying here is guaranteed to ruin your trip. I cannot emphasise enough how thin the walls are - you can hear EVERYTHING! It will make you sick! The rooms are clean but the hotel is set out for 'it's purpose' with one toilet on each floor (4 floors with about 6 rooms per floor) and not every floor has a shower. The location is excellent - so if you are happy to stay somewhere that feels like a brothel go ahead - but I would recommend to look elsewhere! I think sites like Hostel World should really consider removing this hotel from their site!close

A cosy room and a great breakfast close to Wien Mitte station. A good choice for travellers or couples who want to treat themselves to some privacy after all those dorm rooms, but don´t want to pay a fortune. Turn down the heating though!

No character and no private toilets. Its a HOTEL, not a hoStel. There are showers, but there is no opportunity to meet anyone. The consiege is very decent thought.
