B&B Near Castle

Great location - walking distance from HBF (main railway station in Vienna) as well from few other stops of Vienna public transport system; across the street from Belvedere castle; having supermarkets in the same street. Nice and friendly hosts. Very helpful and friendly cleaning lady. Clean and comfortable property (I was accommodated in the apartment with balcony - pity it was winter time and not possible to fully enjoy that cute terrace). Interesting and unusual interior design (exactly as in photos). Good value for money. Recommendable.

Wi-Fi could be of higher quality. Not problem for me, but may be an issue for somebody else - second floor without elevator.

This was my second visit to this unique B&B. The place is in short walking distance from Vienna central train station and just few steps from Belvedere castle, means excellent location with many stores around in a colorful area with amazing buildings and many cafes and restaurants for every taste and budget, from traditional to exotic ones!!! They offer three rooms, each one decorated in a unique way that make you feel as you are staying in a palace! In my room, among amazing furniture, mirrors and paintings, there was an antique pink Venetian murano chandelier hanging from the ceiling and a cabinet with amazing items each one with it's own story, even a miniature painting from 14 century. The old couple of owners were friendly, helpful and ...oh! so charming!!! The lady was from Austria and her husband an archaeologist, art expert and a collector from Italy, he patiently explained me during my first stay, everything about the rooms, the breakfast, the coffee machine in the lobby with the stylish dinning table, and of course information about some of the items they display in the rooms. We had a delightful conversation about art, history and books as they have a big library in the property! During my second stay he explained about TV (which was working through HDMI) and his awesome wife helped me out through the phone when I decide to stay one more day, but later I had to cancel due to ticket problem. I had the room with private external bathroom (only the specific room guests have the key) but truth is I never met anyone in the dinning room outside my room when I was going to the bathroom, place is very quite and private. Room was warm during winter, the radiator was working perfectly, and cool during summer!!! All in all was a fantastic and completely different experience from all the hotels I've stay in the past and that's why I am looking forward to visit again!

If I have to say a "negative" thing is that the property is on the second floor and there is no elevator but that is something very common in old buildings in most European cities so i want give a lesser score cause of this.
