Great location with friendly staff. Hotel is charming but slightly dated. Curtains and some of the furniture need replacing. Keycards need replacing, we always had trouble opening our room doors, and had to run down to reception several times to sort it out. Nevertheless, wifi is stable and water pressure is stronger here than in many newer hotels.
The breakfast was something I looked forward to every morning. The breakfast room was cozy.
Overall, it was a comfortable stay.

Perfect location, very quiet and charming rooms, wonderful staff, with nice treats in the lobby everyday.
07.12.2025 Ian
Wonderful old hotel which has been maintained to a very high standard. Staff superb- friendly, helpful and attentive. The manager is a great ambassador for the hotel - a really nice person.
This was our 8th time at the hotel and we will be returning.
Breakfast is amazing.
Hotel in a beautiful street and so central.
05.12.2025 Neil
An amazing hotel. The staff were so friendly and helpful. The breakfast with fizz was a touch above the norm. Our room was superb and huge, albeit the floorboards did creak a bit. I would definitely want to return to this hotel if we were to go back to Vienna.
02.12.2025 Gregory
Lovely hotel. Perfect location on a quiet street. Friendly staff and a super clean room. Breakfast was great with "British" options too. Most sites within walking distance but U bahn so easy to use. Thoroughly enjoyed our city break and would certainly go back.
13.11.2025 David
Excellent location, cozy small, elegant hotel. Clean, good beds, linen, quiet. Excellent staff.
09.11.2025 Sarah
This trip was a 60th birthday surprise from my husband. The front desk Xiu (sorry if I misspelled your name) made it extra special for us. Thank you.
The boutique hotel is perfect. It has the amenities of a 5 star hotel. Quite, clean, all the extra amenities provided i.e. bathrobe, slippers, all amenities including a sewing kit. Front desk is so friendly. Hotel so clean. Thank you housekeeping. We have traveled worldwide and I will recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Vienna. Location is perfect. Right in the city centre & yet very quite.

This hotel provided us with a wonderful lodging place for a first visit to Vienna over a relaxing six day stay. Its location could not be better... near to all major attractions by walk or by public transit. Especially convenient if you are attending a concert at the Musikverein (Vienna Philharmonic) or performance at the Vienna Opera. Staff are super helpful and friendly. Many nearby restaurant options. The room was well kept and decorated beautifully in wood paneling, with a historical feel.
22.10.2025 Fred
Wonderful Hotel ideally situated within the Ringstrasse with great shopping and restaurants close by. Also within easy walking distance to most of the major attractions in Vienna i.e. Sisi Museum, Spanish Riding School, Opera, St. Stephen’s Cathedral and the National Museum. Very accommodating staff, great breakfast and large and very comfortable rooms. Would definitely look forward to staying there the next visit to Vienna.
22.07.2025 Javier
Extraordinary experience at the center of Vienna.

I got a problem on the property I booked (my fault) and I had no place to sleep and by coincidence I discover this place.

Very easy check -in and very kind receptionist, the hotel has a lot of history and you can see it on every corner, if you like new, morden and soulless properties this is definitely not for you, but if you value history this is definitely a must.

Everything was working perfectly and the breakfast is one of the best well presented breakfasts I have ever seen.

Overall, I would repeat for sure.
Share your experiences, help others make the right choice!
Think about what you would like to know if you were looking for a review about a place to relax. Please describe in detail what you liked and what you didn't. What would you advise to other guests and to the hotel owner. The more fully you tell about the hotel, the easier it will be for other people to make a choice and they will be very grateful to you!

Great location. Walking distance to almost key tourist attractions. Though the rooms are slightly dated but it didnt really bother us too much as bed is rather comfortable, amneties are sufficient. Size of room is acceptable for 2.
15.12.2025 Yuval
Room 306 was a corner room and very spacias!!
I have been to this hotel several times before. Housekeeping used to be better. Still is one of the top hotels on Vienna. Staff is friendly and location is great.
30.11.2025 Jyothish
Old and tired hotel which definitely needs to be demolished and rebuilt. Cupboards in the room are falling apart. Carpets are worn and threadbare with bald patches in the carpet. Rooms are very noisy as street facing and no noise dampening curtains. No slippers provided and no drinking bottled water in the rooms provided and was told to drink tap water as it is safe! Rude staff at the front desk especially the mature looking lady not at all helpful. Bath products appalling quality for a 4 star hote. They should STOP TAKING ANY MORE BOOKINGS before the hotel is refurbished. Only plus point is the location which is central. Defintly NOT A FOUR STAR HOTEL.
14.10.2025 Siddeeq
The hotel was great – the reception staff were amazing and efficient. Despite arriving at 9 a.m., our room was already ready. The bathroom was spacious, and everything went smoothly throughout our stay. The location is perfect – right in the heart of Vienna, with everything within walking distance. The only thing I’d suggest is bringing your own shampoo and body wash, as the provided 2-in-1 gel just doesn’t quite cut it.
12.10.2025 Cem
Best thing with the hotel is the location. It is clean enough but a bit outdated. The feeling is not much of a full 4star. There are limited toiletries in the room. Small mini bar with limited choice. If you have a lower floor room and looking towards the main street, mind you that there will be noise until late night. I had a window that was not closing properly so the noise was even worse. The beds are ok but not the most comfortable. I ran out of Kleenex which was not replace on the next morning, only the following day. For shorter stays and by being in the center you may want to consider. There is an ironing room and also had a shoe polishing machine on my floor, which was a nice found. There is complimentary tea and, instant coffee in the room.

Good location, good price and very nice interior design. Would have given 5 stars had we not had a bad experience with the bellhop who put us in the wrong taxi after we paid for a limo with the hotel to take us to the airport, and after the limo driver presented himself at checkout - IN FRONT OF THE BELLHOP.
18.11.2021 T.J.
Had an outstanding time at this boutique hotel in August of 2021. The room was amazing and the hotel staff was able to get us last minute dinner reservations at choice restaurants. Fantastic service and couldn’t ask for anything more.
05.11.2021 Lady
Best place to stay in Vienna, overlooking the Albertina and walking distance to nearly everything. The restaurant is amazing and the dedicated reading nook in the window was the perfect touch. A lot of thought went into this hotel and it shows!
11.10.2021 Mika
In our leisure evening we had some special desserts 🥰 from @the_guesthouse_vienna and drinks 🍹. It was just a quite pleasant time with friends there, cozy and comfortable.☺️✌️✌🏽✌🏻
14.11.2020 James
This is a lovely hotel and the free wine is a great touch, just thought the photo art work around the hotel was a little bit of a strange choice. Some of it was a little disturbing. Would stay there again though.
