It was excellent hotel, very friendly staff. There was cookies to welcome us in the room. Hotel transfer was a taxi service that you pay separately. They also give us a spice jar as a gift. Definitely will come back when we’re in Vienna.

The Josefshof hotel was exceptional (and I’m an avid traveller with high standards). It is a wonderful boutique hotel on an idyllic quiet street in the centre of all the best historic sites but away from any chaos and tourists. The rooms were very clean and well-appointed, staff was lovely, and the feel in the hotel was calming and charming. The breakfast is fantastic and the attention to detail is impressive (a honeycomb?!). I loved having breakfast in the courtyard garden and returning there later in the day for some down time. I will not look anywhere else to stay for my next visit to Wien. I love everything about this hotel.

The Hotel Josefhof is in a great location for all the Vienna sights, close enough to be walkable, but far enough away as not to be noisy. Our room was very quiet, comfortable and well appointed. The staff members were very helpful. The bar and lounges are on the small side.

Wonderful Stay in Vienna – Impeccable Hospitality & Outstanding Detail! We recently stayed at Hotel Josefshof am Rathaus and had an absolute 5-star experience from start to finish! Here is why we loved it: Warm Hospitality: The staff was incredible—warm, helpful, and attentive to our every need. They gave us great tips on how to navigate Vienna and get around the city smoothly. Spacious Room: Our room was bright, spacious, facing the street, and equipped with a very comfortable extra bed that made our stay super relaxed. Incredible Breakfast: A rich international breakfast spread featuring a great variety of local sweet and savory delicacies. A huge bonus was the option to extend breakfast until 12:00 PM—perfect for a relaxed start to the day! Great Location: Located in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood, yet just steps away from public transport, making it very easy to explore the city. Thoughtful Touch: Upon checking out, we received a lovely parting gift. It’s small details like this that show true customer care and thoughtfulness. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Vienna. We would definitely stay here again!
