This is the second time I have stayed at this wonderful hotel. I spent six days there two years ago and this time I was there for 10. It’s a beautiful building, and the hotel has amazing service, friendly staff, and a lovely breakfast buffet, and beautiful garden to enjoy it in. I will definitely be back. it’s definitely worth paying a bit extra to have the Gustav Klimt-themed art nouveau room!

Great location and a well-run, clean comfortable hotel. Our room on the 5th floor was rather smaller than expected and the steps in the corridor on that floor made moving heavu suitcases very arduous

Good hotel, service slightly lacking

The hotel is well-located, right next to the Rathaus tram and subway station, which puts it a mere 10 minutes walk from the museumsquartier or the parliament. It's well kept and clean, beds are comfortable, the showers are good. But the service is not up to par. On our first night, we had a door hanger opting to give up having the room cleaned the next day in exchange for a beverage or donation. Quite nice, but after the first night, it never showed up again. The shower soap ran out on the second night, something else that we never saw again. And once during the stay, we got no bathroom mat. These are all small, easily corrected mistakes: I could certainly ask for a floor mat or soap in the reception. It's just a bad look for an otherwise great hotel. All things considered, I'd probably return.

I can't wait to come back.

the location is in a nice part of town. it is an extremely quiet part of town, having the window open while we slept was never a problem for noise. the hotel is spotless. the staff were terrific. the breakfast was exceptional. I was thankful we paid for it. we did not need to figure out where to go eat. I have never seen a better breakfast served.

We enjoyed this little cozy boutique hotel so much. After busy days sightseeing we loved having a drink in the bar or living room which were festively decorated for Christmas. I wish the breakfast were more reasonably priced. Rooms and beds were comfortable. Great location with terrific restaurants just a block away.
