Hotel Altwienerhof - Vienna

Very good atmosphere of old Vienna. Lobby was full of flowers with spring smell. Breakfast was quite good. Personnel was very kind and helpful. Thank you. Not far from metro and Westbahnhof, and the most important - very good shopping area in neighborhood. I'll recommend your hotel to my friends.

A super, clean hotel with highly welcoming and competent staff. The rooms are spatious, the bathroom was enourmous, with giant mirrors, yes, it was not cheap but it was definitely worth it. Excellent breakfast, too, close to the metro station.

Hotel was very beautiful in inside and we liked our room, even it was very cold. Decorating was very romantic. Only showercurtain was very ugly and didn't macht at all on the othes style. Breakfast was good and breakfast room was very comfortable. Hotelperson was friendly.

Travelling with family . excellent ospitality

I found the hotel very good in every respect;breakfast and location were excellent:few minutes to both subway and trams to downtown,main train station (Westbahnhof) and the bus terminal for travel to south,west and east, which for me was most important as I also visited Hungary(by train)and Lower Austria (by bus); service, assistance rendered by staff were excellent nothing was too much trouble(needed help in understanding mobile 'phone bought in Austria which was painstakingly explained by one of the staff !).

I had a single room for one night, the helpful staff let me check in early and held my luggage after I checked out. There is a really good kebab shop around the corner. The hotel is one minute walk from the U-Bahn.

Excellent breakfast, large room, friendly staff... A bit seedy neighborhood but just a few paces from the U-bahn station. If on private visit, will come again.

The first time we got a quad room and that was really spacious and value for money. But in our next visit we got a smaller room which was more expensive though. But nevertheless, this hotel is very good, excellent staff and located just opposite the train station Grumpondor (U6 line). I would recommend this hotel to all without any hesitation. They have lovely staff especially Mellanie who helped us with the direcations and suggestions.

The room was clean and very spacious. Breakfast was generous, with diffente kind of dishes. The hotel is very close to subway station so you can reach every destination in few minutes

The positive points are: position really very near the underground station and at the same time very silent, competence and kindness of the staff (it has been a facility for us that one of them speaks italian), the excellent breakfast; the negative ones are furniture and textiles, definitely old, and curtains that seem to need a wash up. More, it is not possible by the web site to understand that breakfast isn't included in the price; as a compensation, children pay half price for it.

As a family who travels extensively the family room provided was huge compared to many other hotels. Although an issue arose the staff quickly handled the problem in a professional manner in order to sort it out. The buffet breakfast was extensive and was a great way to start the day. Well located to the subway it was within easy commute to most of the major attractions. I would not hesitate to use this hotel again.

A very nice stay in a fancy hotel. Personal very pleasant and helpfull. The rooms were charming but no air conditioning nor fan wich can be a bit hard in summer.

Hotel was comfortable-breakfasts were excellent room was comfortable and access to downtown convenient as the manager was very helpfull in describing bus routes. Make sure you book parking if you are driving in as the posting did not let you know that the parking is limited

3 of us had more than a huge room (apartment with 3 rooms), tiny bathroom though. Excellent breakfast, more than friendly staff. I fully recommend this hotel! :-)

Although a little out of the center the underground was just yards away from the hotel We stayed in one of the suites which was excellent plenty of space,seating and tables. Very clean and with unobtrusive service. The breakfast was excellent We would reccomend and certainly use again if we return to Vienna. Only two small negative points 1.Not enough English language channels on the TV,s. 2. No In room drink making facilities.

This Hotel is between old Wiener Zentrum and Schônbrun Casttle. You need to use underground (5 mn) or Bus each time you want to visit Vienna. The Underground station is 150m of Hôtel. I warmly recommand this Hôtel.

We had a lovely time here. The staff were welcoming and helpful. The location was fantastic with ready access to the underground train system and other forms of transport, which made it easy to access all of the city and travel to other destinations.

We are a family of five--this room was large --two big rooms. The bathroom was beautiful--looked completely new and spacious. We were about a one minute walk to the subway which took us to the central part of Vienna (which took about 10 minutes). There were also restaurants to choose from in the area--we would recommend this to others.

The room we stayed was very spacious and nicely decorated. Excellent breakfast. Only 10 mins train ride away from the city center (ring). The train station is only 1 min walk. Overall, very good quality for the price.

Excellent family room and lovely breakfast (including bucks fizz or sparkling cider to go with the smoked salmon and cream cheese + cook your own bacon and eggs. We stayed two extra nights. Easy access to U-bahn and trams. Staff helpful in recommending local restaurants. Cost was Eu119 for 3 adults - more than we usually pay but well worth it.

We booked the suite,which turned out to be just a large bedroom, king bed, two arm chairs and table, desk with chair. Attached was a small single bedroom with a couch in it. The couch needed to be in the large bedroom where the TV was. Bathroom was new and nice. Rooms were spotless. But the floors creaked, squeaked and crumbled with every step, there was absolutely no place to step that didn't squeaked. They put the thin carpet right over the broken wood floor. Funny at first, terribly annoying within an hour or so. Maddening by the time we checked out. Staff was friendly and helpful. Computer available in lobby, no internet in rooms.

We had an excellent stay. Best value considering the price. I am sure that I know where to stay next time.

First time in wien for me and my family (husband, son 14 and dauther 15). we spent 1 night in hotel. it was confortable and nice, but sorry for noisy traffic during the night and bees during breakfast.

Probably the best deal in Vienna for the price. The rooms were HUGE, the bathrooms brand new, the staff extremely helpful. Easy access to the city from the nearby (50 meters) U-bahn station. I know where I would stay the next time I visit Vienna!

Very hospitable staff. Subway station nearby. Good price in hotel. Very easy to find by car. It is an old hotel and you do not have to expect some luxury, but if you need a descent place to sleep for reasonble price and not to far away from the downtown, this hotel can be your choice.

Not exactly in the middle of the city, but very accessible by public transport. Spacious clean rooms and facilities. Helpful staff, nice restaurant. We were in a 3 bed suite, but the 3rd bed was basically a rolled out sofa. But good deal for the < 100 euros

Ottima qualita'/prezzo! Personale gentile, colazione abbondante e di qualita'/scelta elevata. Due piccole note: la camera, pur spaziosissima, pulita e elegante, non disponeva di aria condizionata; questo potrebbe essere un problema nei mesi estivi. Inoltre, la TV era di dimensioni veramente piccole rispetto alla distanza dal letto e con programmi esclusivamente in lingua tedesca (a parte un canale in inglese...). Ritorneremo comunque in futuro...

The hotel's restaurant is now closed, permanently. Only the breakfast room is open (and only for breakfast). The neighborhood is not good at night, although it's fine in the daytime. At night, there were far too many streetwalkers to suit me. I feel sorry for the hotel, actually. The rooms are huge and the building is beautiful. It will either find someone to operate the restaurant, again, and get back on track, or it could succumb to the neighborhood and turn into a place that rents rooms by the hour. In this economy, anything could happen.

Very pleased by the size of the room.

Nice hotel, located very close to a metro station and within some 10 minutes' walk to the Westbahnhof. A bit far, though, if one takes a walk to the Mariahilfestrasse (which was crucial to my wife) - some 20 minutes' walk to reach the main shopping area.

The floor was very noisy, which is a fault of renovation.

Very convenient for Westbahnhof, U-Bahn and trams. My room was surprisingly quiet in view of proximity to busy ring road and overlooked a pleasant garden. The street entrance gives no idea how nice it is inside. Not particularly close to landmarks, but the Vienna public transport system is so good that this doesn't matter.

We were thrilled to be in a spacious suite decorated with antique furniture. The bathroom was amazing - jetted shower and biggest tub I've seen (hot water didn't last to fill it up. Breakfast was nice - including bacon and eggs you could cook yourself, juices, sparkling wine in nice garden-like inner courtyard. It was close to Westbanhof station and we mastered the subway quickly to get around to the sights.

We had a great stay at the Altwienerhof. The hotel is very individual and charming. Our family room was absolutely huge, well furnished and very clean, with a nice spacious bathroom with both shower and bath. The reception staff were exceptionally helpful and pleasant, able to answer (in perfect English) all our queries about public transport, sightseeing etc. The buffet breakfast offered lots of choice, from continental to bacon and eggs (cook your own) and even Bucks Fizz and smoked salmon. The pretty little courtyard garden is great for an evening glass of wine, or for breakfast outside if you prefer. The hotel is not in the nicest part of town (although it is fine) but is incredibly convenient with a bus stop and tube station (Gumperdorfstrasse) very close to take you into the historic centre very quickly. A very nice hotel which I would definitely recommend.

We had a pleasant stay at Altwienerhoff Hotel. All the staff was professional and very friendly. We appreciated they didn't spare any efforts in order to assist all of our requests. Room and amenities were clean and well maintained, the food was great and the location very convenient. It was a very suitable place to stay while visiting this wonderful city.

Hotel is charming but obsolete in furnishing and ambience generally, it needs a general renewing. rooms are quite wide and generous, but mine had a very little and poor bath, pay attention when youn choose.personal are not more than professional.breakfast is pretty good.i found a better relationship price/quality in other hotels abroad and even in italy, i suggest to try before bed and breakfast soluton in wien, i am sure it will success.

Excellent breakfast

Camera molto grande,con bagno enorme e doppio affaccio.Colazione ottima e abbondante.La metro è vicina,in 3 fermate (con 1 cambio) si è in centro.Noi eravamo in 4 con figli grandi e ci siamo trovati benissimo.Internet gratuito.Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo.Lo consigliamo

Is very good for family we stay here very well

Perhaps the breakfast isn't the best in the world, but the location and the room are great according with the price.

Most comfortable and pleasing experience all round

The hotel was very good in anything, even though we needed to change to metro stations to reach the center!

Value for money, really very spacious. Must mention its excellent breakfast, it is delicious and elegant

We stayed here for 3 nights and would strongly recommend it as a good base to explore Vienna. We had a 4 person room which was massive, clean and well furnished. The breakfast was good and the staff helpful.While not in the centre it is near an underground station

Excellent place - both warm and professionally run. Ideally located within 2 minutes walk to subway. Very good breakfast. They were very helpful about giving us us an early breakfast before our flight. Spacious room. Highly recommended.

Qualified, friendly and helpful staff. Fabulous breakfast and what a lovely garden to enjoy our meal in! Won't hesitate to use your services again or hesitate to recommend this hotel to others. Thanks for a lovely stay in Vienna.

Indeed a great place, despite some ongoing reservation works we felt extremely comfortable there

The staff was very helpful in arranging tours, calling taxis and giving us directions to public transportation. The room was very large but the bathroom is small.

Great Location, clean and quiet hotel. Nice breakfast.

We had a wonderful stay at Altwienerhof. The hotel staff were so friendly and hospitable. The rooms were a bit dated, but clean and welcoming. The hotel is a stone's throw from the metro and is in a convenient area to access the main parts of Vienna. There is a wonderful breakfast in the morning as well. A great value!

We had a wonderful stay at Altienerhof Hotel. The staff members were very friendly and incredibly helpful in assisting us with booking concerts and providing information on the surrounding area. The breakfast is fantastic and served in the most elegant of rooms. The rooms are a bit dated, but are clean and well-kept. They are a stone's throw from the Gumpendorfer metro stop, very well-situated. Highly recommended to others staying in Vienna looking for well-priced, clean rooms, and great hospitality.

It was an excellent weekend. We had requested a quiet room for two persons and we got a very comfortable suite for the same price. The welcome was very friendly and we got any information we needed. The breakfast was ok, but you have to take it early, because between 9 h and 10 h sometimes it was difficult to get a place without waiting.The meal we took in the restaurant was good with an excellent service.The interieur of the hotel is romantic in "Wiener Jugendstil". In the summer it must be very fine to take the breakfast in the garden of the hotel.The Metro-Station was near by the hotel. We didn't need the car anytime.

The location is very good.Very close to metro staion.I could get to Schenbrunn in 15 min.My room didnt contained toilet.But I didnt feel that was so inconvinience.And morning buffet was fabulous!

The room was very big and comfortable, the bathroom was really beautifull. They have to change some old things, as carpets and they have to remake the part of breakfast room (the one that is for the spring and summer). All this, is a beautifull breakfast room, but it is old and abandoned. Even the garden of it. The breakfast buffet was very good and the food also was great. The location was very convinient, very close to train station.

Really nice and charming Hotel

Room was very small and I could feel the springs in the matress; very uncomfortable. The room was off of a main street and therefore quite noisy during the day and at night from passing vehicles. I ate at the hotel restaraunt my first night; the meal was relatively expensive but excellent. The hotel did have better rooms but all the singles appear to be very small and not well equiped. On my return to Vienna to catch my flight back to the US I stayed at Pension FÜNFHAUS (1150, Sperrgasse 12). The rooms were large and bright and the bedding confortable although very firm. The bathroom was well proportioned. Being a Pension there were no luxuries but all in all a much better value.

Very good position for WestBanhof and Mariahilferstrasse (Gumpendorfer station within 200mt). My single room was very very tiny, with no space at all around the bed, even if very quiet with windows on the garden. Breakfast very rich served in the nice winter garden. 89 euros for that room was really too much and no real photos about single rooms were provided on web: so, here are a couple!

The website says the hotel is located in Neubau. However, it is quite a bit north of Neubau. But that said, it is conveniently located near the U-bahn which makes travel anywhere in Vienna very quick and easy. The hotel is fabulous for the price range. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone.

Excellent hotel, very convenient, close to Westbahnhof and to U bahn.Easy access to and from airport. Close to central Vienna. Immediate areas around hotel quite mixed, but fine. Hotel very friendly and helpful, relaxed atmosphere.

Convenient to public transport.

I could mot use the shower in my room and i have been just told sorry, but use the one on the floor...i mean one could suggest 5 euros less or just a sentence (sorry we don't have another room, so would you be so kind as to use the shower on the floor) and the worst thing happened in the end. my suitcase got broken on the flight to vienna, so i bought a new one. when i checked out i left my new suitcase in the lodge and asked if it would be possible for the hotel to throw the broken one away. no problem i have been told first (i mean where should i throw my suitcase away? the ordinary litters are a bit small...;))later i returned to fetch my new suitcase and then i am told to take the old one with me or pay 10 euros...i was just shocked, i mean i stayed there 6 nights...is that service? sorry? do i expect too much!?they should have the means to throw it away a lot more easier than me!?? i would not stay there again, sorry! no way! the hotel location, the breakfast was perfect but some some small things really missed (no hair dryer, SERVICE)

Simple standard but very nice hotel, good restaurant, dinner and breakfast.

The state of the furniture is very old and family room is rather a totally untidy apartment

Parfait comme situation et tout à fait adapté en famille et probablement en groupe.Prix très raisonnables en passant par Venere. Piement possible par carte ce qui est une grande facilité. Regret de n'avoir pas eu une chambre donnant sur la cour et le jardin car la rue est tout de même bruyante en permanence(il faut dire que nous vivons habituellement dans un endroit très calme avec un grand jardin)Chambre familiale immense où nous étions 4 et aurions pu être 5. Petit déjeuner très complet. Regret qu'il n'y ait pas de possibilité de repas le Dimanche soir mais il faut bien un jour de "relache". Notre accueil a été tout à fait satisfaisant et le dernier soir seulement la personne d'accueil ce jour là était visiblement peu enthousiaste à l'idée que nous voulions souper à deux (sans nos enfants)sur place sous prétexte qu'il y avait un grand groupe de Japonais. Elle nous a demandé de venir à 21 heures et lorsque nous sommes descendus à 20 heures 40, nous avons bien cru qu'elle allait nous dire que ce n'était plus possible!!! C'est la seule fausse note...mais c'est toujours dommage d'avoir le sentiment que votre interlocuteur n'a plus envie de travailler alors qu'il est en service.

Excellent starting point half way between the city and Schönbrunn.100m to the underground station.the street is very noisy when sleeping with open window. but there are rooms to the garden side more quiet.nice lunch garden, friendly staff.

Pros: Very close to U-bahn, Good furnitures, Breakfast was tasty enough. Cons: Depending on the room, could not connect to the internet (I reserved two rooms, 1 room had that, but other didn't). Breakfast restaurant was a little bit narrow, we could take it at the tables outside though, but that would depend on the weather.

Perfect location in 1 min walking distance to U-Bahn and tram, though very calm place with lovely courtyard.

I visited Hotel Altwienerhof with two friends. We were very impressed with the accommodation as the rooms were very spacious, and it is within walking distance of the city. It is located beside an Underground station so it is handy, no matter where in Vienna you want to visit. The breakfast buffet was also excellent

The hotel was ok, but they had our reservation changed around to saying we had 2 adults and 2 children in their "family room" instead of the 4 adults I put down and thus had a double bed and two single beds that had no space to be adjoined- much to the dismay of my husband and myself. Overall the stay was nice, but I warn against using their parking garage because it was expensive and we couldn't even park there one night because someone had walked away with their garage door opener. Also if you want internet be sure to ask to stay in the old wing because none of the new wing has internet even though all the employees thought it was something we did wrong to not get internet. If looking for a no frills hotel that is very quick to get on the subway this is it- the breakfast is also very good.

A romantic and smart place!! The restaurant is delicious, don't miss it! Laura and Danilo

Very clean large family rooms. staff were very friendly and helpfull

I booked it just because the relative low price of a single room. General speaking, the location is good, 2 subway stations from westbahnhof. The room is clean but small. But the reception is very friendly and helpful. The breakfast is servived in the garden, so it is a plus to this hotel.If you just want to find a place to sleep, this is a good choice.

I reserved a family room and it was spacious and quiet. Good breakfast. The hotel is not in the center of Vienna but a metro station is close to the property (100m). Very easy to reach the facility by car.

Ein gutes Hotel, in dem ich gerne wieder wohnen moechte. Werde es auch allen meinen Freunden anraten, und natuerlich auch meiner Familie. Besonderer Anreiz: Die Fruehstueckraeumlichkeiten erinnen im Stil und Aussehen an die Wandelhallen in der "Josephstadt". Alle sind freundlich. Mariahilfer Guertel und Sechshauserstrasse sind eine Katastrophe in bezug auf stadtgerechte gute Atmosphaere. Wie koennen da die Wiener eigentlich existieren? Viel Schmutz und Laerm. Aber davon merkt man im Hotel eigentlich nichts.

Nice place to stay.

Ottimo hotel con eccellente sistemazione in family room.

E' stata una piacevole sorpresa, sicuramente l'hotel con il miglior rapporto qualità/prezzo di tutti quelli che ho avuto modo di frequentare in giro per l'Europa. Consigliabile, a mio giudizio, soprattutto per le famiglie.

Very nice hotel with excelent breakfast / evening meal facilities. Very good value for money being slightly further from the centre but within 50m of metro train and tram facilities with very efficient public transport facilities. Friendly and helpful staff. Quiet location with nice garden.

The bed quality was a little bad. I was in the room number 106. For the rest everything was very correct.

+ Nice breakfast in really nice setting + Helpful staff - Location is not ideal, need to take bus every time to get to Innerring - Extremely small room

Hotel carino un pò vecchio stile viennese,buona la prima colazione ,location non vicinissima al ring ma se piace camminare in 20min a piede passando dalla marianhilfer strasse si arriva all'hofburg.Il ristorante dell'albergo menzionato anhe su guide turistiche famoso per le sue cantine ,personalmente non ne ho approfittato forse un pò caro per le mie tasche..

As far as European hotel rooms go, this one was very large (we had a suite) and had a large soaking tub (which was a nice surprise). The hotel is old and looks old. The neighborhood of the hotel wasn't great, but it was across the street from the subway and allowed us to travel all over without difficulty. We had no problems and there were several places to eat close by. The hotel staff was excellent and very helpful with directions, suggestions, and even made us a light breakfast for our extremely early flight, which was far earlier than they would have prepared for normally. Overall, the hotel was great. It may be just a little bit expensive for the neighborhood, but the large room, bathtub, and staff made up for any harsh feelings we had about the money.

The hotel is very old.. They say it was renovated lately.. I would like to see how it was before but now, the carpet in the halls and in the room are cut, opened old, very used. My single room was very very small, so small I could turn around with a medium size luggage. The buffet for breakfast was ok, the people serving and helping were nice and polite. In the service's description of the hotel on Venere, they say they have airport and train station shuttle... Don't try to find them.. there is none... I even called before from Prague to tell them I would arrived by train the next day but they laughed and said I had to take a taxi because there wasn't any shuttle. False publicity?? at least, wrong information.

I absolutely loved this hotel. It was soooo charming. Internet service available, Ubahn station nearby - took about three or four minutes to get downtown; staff wonderful.

I stayed at this hotel with my husband and 16-year old son in August. We had a triple room, which was very spacious, with a separate room for my son. My complaints are the beds, which were very hard and uncomfortable, with the springs poking into your body at night, no air conditioning, which meant that it was stuffy in the room, and the very noisy traffic, which could be heard from the room. The breakfast buffet was quite good, but the room was too small for the number of guests at the hotel. When I asked for cappuccino, I got espresso with whipped cream (is the the Viennese version?) I would not stay at this hotel again.

Hotel staff was exceptionally good to us. They arranged for a shuttle to take us from the airport directly to the hotel. When we arrived at night, my wife unexpectedly needed prescription medications. The front desk clerk located the nearest all-night pharmacy, gave us detailed instructions, and even offered to escort us there if necessary (it wasn't...pharmacy was only a few blocks away and his instructions were clear). Another clerk assisted us in finding the best place to change dollars to Euros. Breakfast was fine and in a charming room. We didn't try dinner at the hotel's restaurant, but the menu looked good and it looked popular...probably would have been fine. Location is on a quiet side street, but only drawback is that the hotel is outside of the main "ring" area. The neighborhood didn't have a lot of attractions, but seemed perfectly safe. We had a great first night dinner (schnitzel, ribs, dumplings) in a nearby bar. Despite this small drawback, the hotel is very close to Westbanhof (easy 5-min walk) (train and U-bahn) and less than a minute's walk from an S-bahn station so no problem getting to St. Stephan's or anywhere within a few minutes. All in all, a charming place, would certainly be more than willing to go there again. They were expecting us, had a third bed all set before our arrival (in USA, even the best hotels often fail to do this. Rate was consistent with what we paid in other cities we visited, and was exactly as agreed in Venere.

Really cool! not too far from the city center. very ceap for the quality offered.

The hotel was ok some areas. I it also might need some renovations. The staff was great. As for the location, was a little bit far from the Opera area where all the fun and night lift is. The shops are a 7 minute walk from the hotel, but was not my kind of shops. If brand names you fancy, then the opera is the place. I was shocked for the fact that they did not have a baggage handler. I think that the picutres on the website should be changed because I never saw the torn chairs arm rest. The bathroom looked nothing like the picture on the web. I think the renovations were made for the lobby only.
