FAQ
Common questions for your planning
Here you will find answers to the most common questions about your stay with us – from noise levels and breakfast to parking and getting here. So you can plan your trip to Vienna without a worry!
Is the hotel noisy, being so central?
You are staying right in the middle of Vienna’s lively city life! That brings a certain background noise with it. For guests who are sensitive to noise we are happy to offer our quieter rooms facing the courtyard on request (subject to availability).
Do you offer a large breakfast buffet?
We serve a classic continental breakfast so you can start the day well fed. Our tip for a real Viennese experience: discover one of the countless bakeries or traditional coffee houses just a few steps away. We are happy to share our favourites!
Is there parking at the hotel?
As a city-centre hotel we have no parking of our own – but we do have a partner rate: in the Otto Wagner garage, only a few minutes on foot from the door, a space costs our guests €25 instead of €39.90 per night. You can add it directly when you book, and we are happy to describe the way. If you arrive without a car, the tram and underground are faster anyway.
How do I best reach you from the airport or main station?
Thanks to our central location in Josefstadt you are well connected. The easiest way to reach us is the Schottentor/Universität stop (U2) – from there it is a good ten-minute walk. Alternatively you can travel to the Rathaus stop and walk the rest. From the main station we recommend the underground; for the exact connection the Wiener Linien app is the best guide. From the airport we recommend the City Airport Train (CAT) or the S-Bahn combined with the underground.
