The rooms are very nicely decorated. Location is great. I was pretty quiet and the bed was ok. One huge problem with this property. When the temperature falls below 56F at night the ventilation will only blow hot air. So you have to sleep with the windows open. But there is no thermastatic control on the windows. My first night I woke up in the middle of the night a puddle of sweat. My second night I woke up in the middle of the night freezing. I stayed here for a week, by then end of the week, trial and error I got it about right, then it was time to leave. But forget about sleeping in, if you want the air to circulate, you have to leave the blackout curtains open so enjoy getting up with the dawn.

Good location and very helpful and attentive staff. We didn’t like our 4th floor room with a sloping roof and they moved us to a better room. Rooms were a bit too warm for us and Airconditioning would not turn on.

I would recommend but o
The location is super good as it’s walking distance to the places that is touristy . The receptionist magdalena and tall guy are helpful and good while the rest needs training for good customer service and a smile is always good . The bald guy in bar every time I ask for drink doesn’t even look at me or recognise me , but he’s super friendly to the rest of the European customers . I’m sucker for good customer service and he failed it big time sadly :-(

Service was poor. They “cleaned” our room and didn’t leave us any towels but left a dirty coffee cup for our morning coffee the next day. Wouldn’t stay here again.

Hotel was good. Nice quiet neighborhood, 10 minute walk to city center and Hofburg. Breakfast buffet was included and excellent. Room was clean. The only negative was the young ladies working the front desk in the morning. I asked for some advice on getting to the tram and they CLEARLY did not want to be bothered. I was prepared to give a tip and gave them nothing as a result.

Lousy bathroom, lousy shower everywhere a bit scruffy. Breakfast overpriced chaotic mess. Rude lousy barman. In fairness they refunded breakfast and drinks, but still had to find alternative breakfasts. Whole place needs a makeover. Internet was good.
