We booked this hotel on spec through BA; we chose it principally because it was one of the very few BA recommended hotels that included breakfast in the price (and afternoon tea and cake!) From the start we were made to feel that we were staying with friends, Altstadt is the very opposite of the impersonal city hotel, everyone was... More

We travelled with a group of 22 persons (11 rooms). There slipped a problem in the communication and, for the point of view of the hotel, we arrived a day to early. However the hotel managed this perfectly : we received immediatly 8 of the 11 booked rooms and, for one night, 3 rooms were quickly found in another nice,... More

Let me begin by saying that if you are looking for the anonymity of a chain hotel that could be in any city - this is not the place for you. If,like ourselves, you like to feel part of the city in which you are staying, then look no further. This old patricians house, close to the Museum Quarter, has... More

We arrived at the Hotel Altstadt by cab and took the elevator up to the Reception area on the second floor. The hotel is in the Spittleburg area, maybe a half mile or so from the Kunsthistorisches Museum and Hofburg complex. With the email help of the staff, I had selected Room 33, a bright and spacious room with a... More

My girlfriend and I stayed at the Hotel Alstadt for 2 nights and we both loved it! First of all, it was the only hotel in Austria that understood the twin bed concept, the room was huge, and although the bathroom did not have an American-style shower, once we got the hang of it and didn't squirt gallons of water...

"Your personal residence in Vienna" - this greeting was written by mrs. Hager at the bottom of the confirmation mail we received as we booked the Appesbach Suite for 6 nights at Alststadt Vienna. Well, this is how we felt during our stay. Wonderfully located in the old town where you just walk to the MuseumQuartier, Volkstheater and Hofburg Palace,... More

Having never been to Vienna before I consulted Trip Advisor and, based on the reviews for the Hotel Altstadt, I booked it. Great decision on my part, I miust say!

You walk into this pace and could be forgiven for wondering what you had done. The entrance is off an unremarkable side street into an anonymous hallway with a sign saying recption is up the stairs to the next floor. Reception is actually tiny and if a number of guests arrive at once far too small. The rooms are accessed... More

First off - 4 stars for being a VERY uniquely decorated hotel. My room was the FELIX room (shown in most of their website) and it looks EXACTLY like that. There REALLY is a bathtub right there in the middle of the room on a little pedestal. The colors were good and great bathroom. Closet didn't exist however -- it... More

I stay in hotels all over the world with my job and i cannot recommend this hotel highly enough. Great rooms, friendly service, a complete contrast from the stuffy standard chain hotels. If you want something a little different, then this is the place for you
