Very nice hotel in the old town. Small, but clean and rather comfortable room. Breakfast was really good, with a huge variety of fresh and tasteful products. Best choice for this price! More

I stayed at this great Viennese hotel for 3 nights at the end of December, after reading the mostly positive comments from visitors here on TripAdvisor. I booked a single room online, and upon arrival at the airport I bought a 3-day transit pass. The hotel staff had previously e-mailed me directions using public transport, which directed me to the...

I stayed in this hotel during my first ever visit to Vienna and was very happy with the experience. The hotel is located approximately five minutes walk to the city centre, Opera, shopping district and museums. The surrounding streets are not of interest to tourists but there are plenty of shops, supermarkets and restaurants. It is only a short walk... More

Although I only stayed at Erzherzog Rainer with my fiancee for one night, the experience was great. On arrival, I was given a room immediately, despite checking-in rather early in the day. The rooms were adequately furnished, clean, and had comfortable beds and pillows. There was also a "heating rack" in the toilet - which was great since I could... More

This hotel was fantastic. We stayed here during a trip to Vienna. The staff was very helpful and there was no problem when we arrived into Vienna very late one night. It is a few blocks to the nearest subway stop, that is the only reason I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars. It is two blocks and at... More

We loved this hotel. It is a bit of a walk from the center square, Stephansplatz (about 30 minutes); and 15 minutes to Karlsplatz the Underground station (designed by Otto Wagner). This is not such a bad thing given the amount of Viennese pastry you will be eating, right? The front desk personnel, the bellhop, and maid service personnel all... More
