Less than a five minute walk (I timed it) from the airport bus stop at Schwedenplatz and on the doorstep of all that Vienna has to offer, the hotel is in a great location.
On arrving I was a little concerned as the entrance is down an (albeit clean) alleyway, but there were no problems either with noise or dodgy people hanging around. The reception team were very welcoming and professional. The hotel is spotlessly clean, rooms were comfortable and the breakfast was a lovely fresh spread (their website pics are true!). No other meals are available here, but staff can offer good suggestions and there is a Spar Gourmet round the corner selling lovely fresh salads, fruit salads and other groceries should you fancy a picnic. It's quite a good sized supermarket by city centre standards. There are plenty of cafes, pubs and restaurants only two minutes walk (if that) from the hotel.
I've chalked a point off as, unlike at the Atlantis in Vienna, the staff did not offer to contact the airport when I mentioned BA lost my luggage, but the service was still superb.

Location is very good. 5 minutes walk from the Airport Shuttle Bus Stop. 2 minutes from the subway and tram station. Rooms are large and comfortable. Staffs are helpful, polite, and friendly.

Great hotel. Central location. Nicely appointed rooms. Very helpful staff. Good recommendations for dinner, restaurants that were not touristy. Would stay again.

After having browsed the net - and especially Trip Advisor - my husband, mother and myself selected the Hotel Austria mainly for its location. While my husband was worried that this is a 3 star hotel and might not be up to the standard we expect, he was definitely most pleasantly surprised. First of all, the hotel's location is simply unbeatable. Within minutes you are able to reach - on foot - most of the major attractions and hot spots. If you are too tired to walk, the hotel again is very close to the underground system, the metro and the bus stations. The staff is extremely friendly and pleasant and the hotel is spotless. Our rooms were spacious and very nicely and comfortably decorated. Right across from the hotel, you have a main supermarket outlet which is also very handy. We definitely recommend the hotel and will be going back on our future trips.
