Down a small street is this lovely hotel which can be easily missed from the main street. It is located in the old town not far from historic sites, 2 metros and good places to eat. We found the decor elegant, the room comfortable, the staff friendly and helpful and the breakfast excellent. This was a great value for the... more

We found the Hotel Austria an excellent quality hotel. It is located in the centre of the city and is close to most tourist attractions and the Fiacre (horse & carriage) rank at St Stephens church. The staff were very helpful in providing directions to local transport, directing us to tourist venues, parking and even arranging a baby sitter so... more

Location being our primary criterion, Hotel Austria has it. Add quiet rooms, friendly staff, excellent breakfast buffet and free wireless Internet and you have the best place in Vienna. For self-catering, the Spar grocery store is half a block away. The underground transit is less than a five-minute walk. We spent a week walking around downtown Vienna and didn't see... more

Hotel Austria is very comfortable, low key and has a helpful staff. Take up their offer of rental bikes, an excellent way of getting around Vienna which has well-marked bike lanes (a nice way to circulate around the Ringstrasse). Overall, the hotel is a nice blend of old world value and modern amenities. more

I would like to thank you for everything. This hotel is very nice and elegant. Vienna is lovely city. I was on exibition in Albertina - Vincent Van Gogh. Albertina and the exibition was beautiful. The hotel staff was really friendly and helpful. What I appreciated most was the professional staff who treated everybody well regardless where they came from.... more

We just returned from a 3 week trip to Europe that consisted of a steady diet of 3 star hotels. Vienna was our 4th stop so we were pretty familiar with what to expect. Thus, we were especially surprised with the quality of the Austria. It was first class in every respect. The size of the room was great. The... more

I can only echo the many positive reviews already here. For the price, we found Hotel Austria to be an excellent value in a good location (walking distance to all central sites). The breakfast offerings were above average. The rooms were pleasant and clean. We arrived early in the day and the staff kindly let us check into our room... more

I have just returned from a 4-night stay at the Hotel Austria. This was my second choice after spending 2 nights in a gloomy pension nearby. I walked into the HA quite on the chance and I was lucky as the hotel was an excellent relief. I wanted to stay 4 nights so we negotiated a room rate of €80,... more

A short walk from the U-bahn and tram stop at Schwedenplatz, this somewhat secluded hotel is nevertheless in the heart of the city - within the Ringstrasse and easy walking distance of most of the principal sights. For destinations not in walking distance, tram freaks like me will delight in the extensive (an expanding) tramway system. This is a good... more
