The Base was not hard to find but do your homework before you leave home. Convenient if you arrive Vienna at Westbarnhof. From Westbarnhof the Base is a 15 minute walk. Take care with wheeled-luggage as the cobbles take no prisoners. We stayed in a ensuite room. It was adequate base from which to expore the city centre. The trams... More

the drawback to this Hostel is that you have to walk quite awhile to reach Vienna's main attractions, but all in all it was simply great! it was clean, affordable (especially since we were travelling on a budget) and friendly. the room had the bare essentials which was fine by us and the hostel taxi service was brilliant too. close...

The hostel is quite big. The rooms are clean and in good condition. There is a nar with a good atmosphere during late afternoon. The only bad thing is it is a bit far away the center, not too well situated but it only takes 10 min to get the metro to the ring. More

It is in a minor red light district and you do have to walk down a long semi dark side street to get the base unlike the lounge located just down the street. However we were two young girls, first night... More

We had a great stay at the Wombat's The Base hostel. The rooms (we had a 6 bed room) are spacious and have their own shower + wc Staff were extraordinarily friendly and helpful. The hostel is situated close to the rail station and you have the opportunity to store your luggage in a seperate room if you arrive before... More

They don't have a parking place so we parked the car 2 streets away. :) Next time we will try the other 2... More

Stayed here 2 nights with my partner and were unable to get a private room. We didn't book, so was no fault of the hostel. The hostel was clean, and liked the fact they enforced noise policies it the evening. Great place to drink cheap. Breakfast is not included, and there are pay only computers unless you have your own... More
