Pros:

The hotel is simple but overall good. The problem was that in the middle of the day I was called because apparently there was a leak from my room to the floor downstairs. When I arrived back at the hotel hours after they still haven't resolved the issue and claimed to not have other rooms, so I had to go look for another hotel after a long day of meetings. I asked for them to at least get me somewhere to take a shower and they claimed not to have any options for me.

Warm nights near train station
Pros:

Hotel was in great location. Near train station. Didnt realize no AC and it was very warm. They did supply a fan and its fine if only one person in room. Windows had to stay open but bus stop and bar downstairs made early night too noisy. Checkin only till 5pm so had to be done electronically via a machine. Difficult for a less techy visitor. Still a good stay. Nice rooms.

Pros:

I loved the view from the bedroom and overall the room was comfortable. The bathroom was tight and a bit small but we made it work. My main issue is with the reception. The guy at the welcome desk was extremely unwelcoming and unkind. I asked about parking when I overheard him tell another guest it was free. I asked where exactly we were allowed to park for free so I made sure I followed any rules. He looked at me like I was stupid, rolled his eyes and said my question made no sense. Then he said yes, you can park on the street by the hotel for free. So we did what he said we could and found a nice ticket the morning of our departure. Only because of him I will never stay at this location again. He was horrible at his job and very unprofessional.

Pros:

Really enjoyed my stay, I'd emailed to say I'd be there before check in and they said I could possibly check in early or there was a luggage store. When I arrived my room wasn't available which was to be expected but then there seemed to be a problem as lots of phone calls and the word overbooking was used. Was all resolved (sorry if you were the booking that got moved). Room was lovely, just incredibly warm. Brilliant location, as close enough to the centre but not overwhelmingly so. Public transport is the dream in Vienna. Would absolutely stay here again

Pros:

Although this happens often in Germany, the entrance is closed, if you arrive after 19:00. They offer a key in the locker, but you need to call them to get the number to open it. It would be nicer, when they leave a notice beforehand thru email.

Pros:

Più che un hotel è un affittacamere.
Hanno preso camere in un bel palazzo antico ed elegante e l'hanno trasformate in camere di hotel.
La camera era molto grande incluso il bagno, ma un hotel non può avere la reception aperta con personale in presenza solo dalle 10 alle 19.
Il secondo e il terzo giorno hanno pulito la camera ma non hanno cambiato i teli nonostante il secondo giorno l'avevo richiesti.
Molto disponibile e gentile Maria la ragazza russa alla reception

Pros:

Loved the chandelier in my room! Great view of the Votive Church - which is beautiful at night. Floodlit.
Few too many stairs for this old lady - but there is a lift eventually.
Handy having access to a jug for a cuppa.

Disaster in Vienna
Pros:

I had prepaid the first nite at $ 109 and was informed this was only the price for the first nite, the second and third nite would be $ 140 and $ 139 respectively. When you come, you have to carry your suitcase up 2 flites of stairs, then take an elevator up another flight to the reception and the carry your suitcase up another floor to your tiny, tiny room. The shower is great but the entry to the shower is so small that an slightly overweight person cannot access the shower.

Pros:

Zimmer klein, aber sauber, riecht allerdings fürchterlich nach Zigarettenrauch, obwohl das wohl ein Nichtraucher-Zimmer ist. Fenster direkt oberhalb einer sehr befahrenen Straße schlechte bis keine Isolierung der Fenster-> durchgehend lauter sehr störender Lärm.

Pros:

The room category I booked on hotels.com does not exist (Standard individual), I just got a single bed instead of a double bed. The pictures were also wrong. I didnt get an invoice, even tho I asked for it a day before booking. The room didnt have air condition. Price/Value-ratio really bad.

Personnel trying to be helpful though, not their fault.
