Are you looking for a quaint hotel in the city center of Vienna within walking distance of the city’s many attractions? Look no further!
This lovely Bed & Breakfast is across the street from the Vienna State Opera House and the Hotel Sacher, home of the famous Sacher Torte. Located in the major shopping district it is close to Albertina, and St. Stephen’s Cathedral, Austrian National Library, Cici Museum and the Hofburg Imperial Palace.
We were happily greeted by Markus, the owner, who answered all our questions and then made us coffee as we sat and chatted with him about the sites we wanted to visit. He was very helpful as he asked us if we would like him to arrange opera or concert tickets. 
We didn’t but we sure did want to go to the Casino Wein, which was right next door!!! He even told us what to expect when we went there, telling us we needed to take our passports and the process they go through to ‘check you in’. His English is perfect. The property has been newly renovated and expanded to 12 rooms so guests receive top notch service.
The rooms were beautifully furnished and decorated in the style of old Vienna that made us feel as if we had stepped back into the time of Mozart, Chopin and Haydn. In addition to very comfortable bedding, the room has flat front television, coffee tea self service, mini bar, a wonderful bathroom with a rain shower-head and hair dryer. There was even two bathrobes! I always want a bathrobe when I get out of the shower and with the airlines being such assholios about luggage weight, packing my own bathrobe is out of the question. So thank you Markus for going the extra step to make my bath experience comfortable!
The value, price versus service, we received at this boutique hotel was stellar! We would happily recommend this hotel to anyone traveling to Vienna for holiday or business.
