The environment is great, and the rooftop bar is a nice touch. I had a very pleasant stay in Vienna. I was attending a conference at Hofburg Palace, which is about a one-kilometer walk from the hotel. The hotel is also within two kilometers of the city's core area.

To catch an early flight the next day, I stayed at this hotel a day in advance. It's super convenient as it's within walking distance. I didn't have high expectations for the hotel's environment, but it exceeded them – highly recommend! Facilities: The hotel lobby even has real-time flight information, which is a great touch.

Location of hotel was easy to find and very near the U-Bahn station. However, the station has no elevator/escalator, so you have to bring your luggage up and down the stairs. Check-in and check-out are quick and simple. There are multiple entry and exit points so do see which is nearer to your door; we mostly used the 2nd elevator nearer to the mall. Room is cosy and spacious; fits luggages very comfortably with space to spare. Toilet is clean and big but the water does come out of the shower doors quite abit. Room service is polite and timely; keeps room tidy. For heater/aircon, please ask the reception about the setting before heading up; it has a peculiar setup but works well after setting it up properly. Best part is the hotel has a trinkwasser fountain within 1 minute’s walk; so we have a free water refill every night and day.

The value for money here is truly excellent. The room had external roller shutters and an easy-to-control air conditioning system, which was a real lifesaver on the warm days. The hotel is located in a quiet area, which was lovely after a busy day exploring the city. Plus, with the 'Praterstern' station nearby, you can be back in the heart of the action in no time. I can genuinely recommend this hotel and would definitely book it again.

True to the Ibis standard worldwide, the rooms here are compact and equipped with all the essentials you need, though keep in mind they do not include a refrigerator or a kettle. The location is excellent, with a tram stop right in front of the hotel, making it incredibly easy to head into the city center. A short 10-minute walk will take you to the main train station, providing convenient access to various destinations. The station itself features a supermarket and several restaurants that stay open late. You’ll also find plenty of dining options in the immediate area surrounding the hotel. One of the highlights is the breakfast, which is impressive and offers a great variety of choices. However, the best surprise was opening the window to find a stunning view of a Gothic church—absolutely breathtaking!

The Garner Vienna Hotel - Prinz Eugen (an IHG hotel) is a very good hotel (in our experience) with a very convenient location, right near the Wien Hauptbahnhof station, close to Wien Bus Station, and also right next to Belvedere Castle and a number of other attractions. The hotel is long-established, with a classic design, very cozy, well-organized, comfortable and quiet. My room had a window overlooking the city with its old rooftops and church bell tower, which was beautiful and striking both in the morning and at sunset. The breakfast buffet was excellent with a variety of delicious food. The staff were friendly, very helpful and warm. I will definitely return to this hotel!

Location: Super close to Vienna's main train station, just a 3-5 minute walk. Since it's not in the old town, the surrounding area is a bit average, but there are still a few restaurants. Plus, Vienna Main Station itself is a great spot for foodies. Facilities: For a budget hotel, the facilities are decent. The room size is quite large for European standards, and the amenities feel relatively new. I'd like to give a special shout-out to the breakfast – an automatic cheese slicer and a waffle maker are pretty high-end for a budget place, and the breakfast itself was good, perfect for those who enjoy a Western-style spread. Service: The hotel service was quite good. The front desk even provided two glass cups, which were handy for drinking water and brushing teeth. They also offer luggage storage. Overall: It's conveniently located with easy access to transportation. It's very close to Belvedere Palace and Schönbrunn Palace isn't too far either, making it ideal for travelers arriving or departing Vienna by train. However, if you're looking to experience the city's culture, staying in the old town would be a better choice.

I stayed in Vienna for 3 nights and booked a hotel right by the station, so the location was excellent and very convenient. I even managed a day trip to Budapest and Prague, starting early in the morning, which was comfortable! The hotel is very clean and has a water dispenser. I personally loved having laundry facilities... However, there was no air conditioning in the room, and since the temperature was over 30 degrees during my stay, it was too hot to sleep. They really should install AC. It was much cooler outside. Also, the check-in process, as many reviews mentioned, was quite complicated. I think they should have at least one staff member dedicated to assisting guests. Everyone seemed to be struggling with it.

The transportation is incredibly convenient, with bus stops and a subway station right outside. The room was quite clean and offered excellent value for money. However, the room lighting was a bit dim, and the bedside lamp was quite harsh. Although there's an elevator, you still have to carry your luggage up a short flight of stairs because the elevator stops on a half-landing.

A little bit worn down, but very spacious room and bathroom. View. Somewhat more serious was the air-condition , and difficulties setting right temp. Ended up with opening window for several hours , to lower the temp. Friendly and helpful service employees in reception. Near public transport of several kinds ( bus,tram,u-bahn,and train.) To rent city bike and e-bike , very easy and cost next to nothing. You find them every where. Shops, cafes, restaurants and post office near by.
