This hotel went over all our expectations! The service when adapting a group booking to for a prolonged stay was an excellent start. The service received when checking in was also great. Whenever we needed something, either mineral water or information - the reception was very helpful. We stayed in a junior suite, as we were staying five nights and needed space to work part time from the room. The cleaning of the room were excellent, the bathroom was equiped with a nice shower and two separate faucets and basins for efficient double use. The only minus was that the bath towels were of quite the minimum size. One would excpect full size towels lets say 150 cm long, but that was the only minus we found during our stay. The breakfast is from 07-12, very flexible in time - and you need good time to endulge in all the buffet can offer. You will found freshly squeezed orange juice, other juices, milk, oatly and soy milk for those lactoce intolerant ones - and of course all kinds of cofee and water. You can even get very nice prosecco, as we started more than one day when we did not have work to be done. There were several kinds of fresh bakery, and salad, vegetables, fresh "cut yourself" ham, Leberkäse (a must-try if you are in Wien), several aged cheeses, other cold cuts and of course bacon and eggs, both cooked and scrambled! Last, but not least, youghurt with a lot of different toppings, tea and smoothies. For a sweet finish, Apfelstrudl and other cakes and also the traditional Kaiserschmarrn - shredded sweet pancake with apple or plum jam. The bar at the reception was alsp run with great care for the guests and we stayed there after comming in from dinner for a few hours and received excellent service there also! The hotel is situated in a quite streed, but very central to several very nice cafes (as Cafe Eiles) and restaurants (as Fromme Helene) - and you can reach anywhere with the public transport available in a few minutes walk from the hotel. If you want to take a Taxi, a Bolt is never more than five minutes away :-) Enjoy your stay, I really recommend this hotel!

This excellent hotel was in a quiet street, but within easy walking distance of the historic centre of Vienna, the museum quarter as well as buses, trams and the metro. There were also some very good restaurants just a few minutes walk away. Our room was spacious and comfortable overlooking a central courtyard. Reception staff were efficient, friendly and helpful. The breakfast was superb with a huge range of options. Pity we didn't have room to try them all! Special mention must be made of the breakfast room staff who kept things moving beautifully, clearing tables, replenishing the buffet and all done with a smile. One extra advantage was the option of having a free beer or wine in the bar instead of having your room cleaned. Most welcome after a long day of sunny sightseeing! Overall a brilliant stay in a lovely city. Highly recommended.
