Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Limited facilities — The Facilities rating is notably low at 6.0, and the hotel does not list amenities like a restaurant, gym, or bar.
  • No pets allowed — The property does not accept pets, which may be a drawback for travellers with animals.
  • Check-in window is not round-the-clock — Check-in is only from 13:00 to 23:00, so late arrivals after 11 PM would need to plan accordingly.
  • Basic room amenities — Rooms come with showers but no mention of extras like minibars, coffee makers, or in-room Wi-Fi, which may be expected at this price point.

“Our room was kept spotless thanks to daily housekeeping, and the location couldn't be better – the metro is right downstairs and the train station is a short walk. The staff were friendly and helpful.”

7.7Verified guest

“Being next to a train station meant we could get anywhere in Vienna easily. The location alone made it worth it.”

7.7Verified guest

“The location is fantastic – there's a subway station right in front of the building.”

7.7Verified guest

“The location is outstanding, with an ornate brick facade on the corner. The metro entrance is literally outside the property, which is great for guests with mobility issues. The smart key system was handy, and there was plenty of storage – a big wardrobe and two chests of drawers. The bathroom was spacious, new, and very clean, with a hairdryer.”

7.7Verified guest

“The rooms are great – I loved the spacious bathroom, which made moving around in my wheelchair much easier. The private shower had plenty of room, and the hairdryer was a nice extra. Watching TV in bed was a plus.”

7.7Verified guest

“The location is a game-changer – right next to the subway, so you can zip to the railway station or Stephansplatz in no time. The breakfast buffet is delicious and has everything you need. Reception staff go above and beyond. The rooms are clean and cozy, the bathroom is good, and despite being so close to the metro, it's surprisingly quiet. Free Wi-Fi in public areas, a lift, and non-smoking rooms – I'd definitely recommend this place for a young adult's stay.”
