On arrival the receptionist was really friendly and engaging. We arrived an hour before check in but noticing it was one of our birthdays that week she worked her magic and managed to find us a room early. She gave us lots of recommendations for bars and restaurants nearby.
The room (whilst not to our usual style) was comfortable. Lots of dark wood with a hint of a modern/chic. Only real complaint about the room was that the air con wasn’t that powerful but was ok. If it hadn’t been 35 degrees outside it probably wouldn’t have bothered us in the slightest.
Really central location, just a few minutes walk to restaurants, bars, shopping and all the main sites of central Vienna (St Stephen’s cathedral, the opera house etc).
Just a warning about breakfast, if you don’t book direct it is €29 each. That was somewhat of a shock when we had only ordered omelettes with bacon and sausage. We did try claw some money back with several pastries and fruit, but it’s still steep.
