This place is a nice, comfortable and convenient location with n accommodating staff.
Pros:

The room was spacious with a separate bedroom, a pull out sofa in the living room and a kitchen. The staff were excellent. They went out of their way to accommodate.

Cons:

There were stairs (not a lot) and a very small elevator that made it inconvenient to get luggage to and from the room. Although we did not like this, the staff always came to the rescue to help us out. Eddy even stacked our luggage in the elevator pushed the floor level button and ran up the stairs in time to meet the luggage on the other side!

The property is older and, as expected, not everything is perfect. The shower gave us grief as we found we needed to aim the lower water stream towards the wall so that we wouldn’t have to clean up a big water mess all over the floor.

Nice hotel with plenty of amenities.
Pros:

The location was vey appealing. There were stores and restaurants all around the property. The staff were above and beyond any staff I have encountered. They went out of their way to try to help you with your needs.

Cons:

Breakfast was alright but I have seen a lot better for the price of 24€ per person. The food offered was fresh but the variety needs improvement. The bathroom was in an awkward place. It was closest to the kitchen and farthest from the bedroom. We had only rented this room for one night. Otherwise I would have considered requesting a different room.

Dieptepunt van onze reis
Pros:

Locatie

Cons:

Onze laatste stop in Wenen had het hoogtepunt van onze reis moeten zijn. We kozen bewust voor Living, een hotel van ruim €250 per nacht, vanwege de ligging dicht bij de Musikverein en het centrum. Helaas bleek het verblijf een dieptepunt.

1. Aanhoudend mechanisch geluid in de kamer
In onze kamer klonk elke 10–15 minuten een brommend mechanisch geluid, dag en nacht. Slapen was hierdoor bijna onmogelijk. In de badkamer hoorden we een ander, door de vloer galmend geluid. Toen we hulp zochten, was er geen personeel aanwezig. Een achtergelaten briefje leverde geen reactie op. Later werd onze klacht bij de receptie afgedaan met “de technicus is er niet”. We voelden ons niet serieus genomen.

2. Overal kleine zwarte vliegjes
In de slaapkamer, badkamer, ontbijtruimte, koffiekamer én receptie waren overal kleine zwarte vliegjes. Dit werd door de receptie bevestigd: “Er komt elke 14 dagen een bestrijdingsbedrijf.” Het blijft echter zeer onhygiënisch.

3. Een veel te smal bed
Voor een kamer van deze prijsklasse verwacht je een volwaardig tweepersoonsbed. Dit bed was hooguit 140–160 cm breed, waardoor comfortabel slapen onmogelijk was.

4. Karig ontbijt
Bij een overnachtingstarief van €250+ verwacht je een rijkelijk ontbijt. Het aanbod was beperkt en het personeel wilde geen omelet bereiden.

Conclusie
Dit verblijf was helaas het dieptepunt van onze reis. Door de geluidsoverlast, de vliegjes en de matige voorzieningen vinden wij de prijs–kwaliteitverhouding volledig scheef. Het hotel was het geld absoluut niet waard.

Wij vinden een verontschuldiging en een refund van één nacht op zijn plaats en zullen hierover een klacht indienen bij zowel het hotel als Booking.

Pros:

A Wonderful Stay and Exceptional Hospitality
We had a truly lovely experience at Living Hotel an der Oper. The hotel has a wonderful location, but what made our stay especially memorable was the kindness and professionalism of the staff.
A very special thank you to Andrea, Mariam, and Mazen for their outstanding cooperation, positive energy, warm smiles, and genuine care. They were always friendly, attentive, professional, and ready to help with anything we needed. Their kindness and enthusiasm made us feel truly welcomed and well taken care of throughout our stay.
People like Andrea, Mariam, and Mazen are what make a hotel feel truly special — their warmth, genuine smiles, and dedication turn a stay into a memorable experience.
Thank you for making our stay so comfortable and enjoyable. Your hospitality made a real difference, and we will remember your kindness with great appreciation.

ゆったり過ごせた
Pros:

ホテルの建物自体は重厚なつくりで、博物館あるいは美術館のように感じた。私の滞在中に接したスタッフは3人だったが、いずれも親切かつ丁寧であった。そのうちの一人は片言の日本語を話したので緊張感が和らいだ。部屋は予想したより広く感じた。床面積が広いことに加え、天井が高かったからだと思う。ベッドや調度品も満足できたし、何といってもバスルームがゆったりとしており、バスタブつきであったことが良かった。コーヒーと水が無料でいただけるのがありがたかった。朝食は取っていないのでわからない。

Cons:

場所は極めて分かりやすいところにあるはずなのに、ホテル名が書かれた表示板が見にくいところにあるため、最初、素通りしてオペラまで行ってしまった。ホットドッグ屋のお兄さんに訊いてわかった次第です。

Loved it!
Pros:

Location, location, location! Coffee service, sparkling water ad lib.

Cons:

Our apt had a bathtub elevated about15 cm over the bathroom floor. A potential risk for the seniors among us.
