A Gem of a hotel in the heart of Vienna
Pros:

We loved the whole experience. The hotel was beautiful, the staff couldn't do enough for us. Breakfast was a feast, served from 7.00 -12.00, and was excellent value for money A special shout out to Thomas on Reception and Nathan in the Bar, both were extremely friendly & helpful with suggestions for places to visit. We loved our stay at Josefshof and will hopefully return some day.

Cons:

Nothing negative from our experience.

Boa localização e recepção
Pros:

Boa recepção no hotel, entregaram guias com dicas e restaurantes de sugestão. Quarto bem organizado. Boa localização

Cons:

Abertura e fechamento da persiana da cortina era meio difícil. Banheiro, principalmente box, meio apertado. Shampoo, condicionador e sabonete eram todos a mesma coisa, não eram muito bons. Cobertor individual ao invés de casal meio desconfortável

Pros:

Welcome chocolate on arrival in room.

Cons:

One of the rooms was meant to be a twin and we were told to pay extra for that. That is poor - in most hotels a room for two can have a double or twin bed for the same cost.
