Hotéis em Josefstadt, Viena

Prós: The concept was interesting

Contras: The sommelier left us all alone after 5 min when we had just started the wine discussion and all we needed was another 15 minutes and he referred us to his assistant who knew nothing

Contras: The mattress seems to be old as it sank when I slept on it. I have had back pains because of it. Also, I wish the staff give more detailed info/direction on how to get to the hotel. There is no info after exit from Volkstheatre. I was lost for 10-15 min before finding the right direction.

Prós: The hotel was quaint and at walking distance from nearby attractions.

Contras: Option of food

Prós: Very friendly staff, that were ready to help in any small thing needed. Stay full of details.

Prós: The room. The bathroom . The breakfast. Very quiet and the stuff were very kind.

Prós: The beds, linens and pillows were excellent

Contras: Front desk staff (Toola not sure of spelling) he needs much, much more hospitality training. Other staff members were more accommodating.

Prós: Great rooms with a wine theme for each. Very clean and well appointed. Just a few blocks away from all the Vienna city center sites and attractions. Loved our stay here, and do a wine tasting in the bar if you can!

Prós: Location , large room

Contras: Noise from extractor systems in adjacent rooms every time someone used the toilet - which seemed every two hours during the night

Prós: Great hotel. Highly recommend

Contras: Nothing, was great!

Prós: Great location, youthful vibe

Prós: Fantastic rooms, really comfortable , helpful staff, amazing food and wine. Outstanding hotel, would recommend to all.

Contras: Nothing!

Prós: All good.

Contras: Location fab.

Prós: Comfortable rooms and excellent breakfast. Perfect location for galleries etc. Two minuets from underground. Lots of eateries and bars, yet quiet.

Prós: The location is excellent. So was the crew at the hotel. Comfortable room. Very well served breakfast.

Prós: Quiet but close to the museums and rose garden. Wonderful Breakfast Very accommodating and thoughtful staff. We will return.

Prós: The quality in employee depends person by person. Very nice breakfast Clean and beautiful room

Contras: There are some Unfriendly employees.

Prós: Location was great, staff were friendly & most helpful. Excellent breakfast buffet

Prós: Friendly staff and location very good well serviced by public transport . Very comfortable accommodation

Contras: Signage to the hotel . Viewed from either end of Josefstrasse the hotel is stepped back in from the road and is tucked away and not readily visible, would benefit from a sign at either end of the street pointing to the direction of the hotel. Mobile phoned died on my way to hotel so google maps was not available to direct me and josefstrasse is a very narrow street and I missed the hotel when I looked down the road it was nightime and raining heavily. Friendly local came to my assistance and redirected me. Otherwise everything we experienced was first class.

Prós: Comfortable beds,spacey room,very good breakfast.

Prós: Really helpful staff. Comfortable bed and room and great location.

Contras: Only 1 iron for the whole building. Located in a special room on the first floor.

Contras: My room was on the ground floor and was like a basement.To get in and get out of the room I must pass through the restaurant area.In the reception said that the hotel was fully booked and they didn't have other options.

Prós: The location is just off the beaten track in the 8th district (a real gem), much quieter than some other places we have stayed in yet within easy walking distance of the major attractions and a tram stop.

Contras: Nothing - enjoyed it all

Prós: Location!

Contras: Had to leave

Prós: In our opinion, this hotel is in an absolutely ideal location. We enjoy seeing a city by foot and we were within walking distance from every district, attraction and Christmas market that we wanted to visit. Minutes from Rathaus, Museum Quartiet, Naschmarkt, Hofburg Palace/Old Town, even Schönbrunn Palace was possible. The hotel was also surprisingly quiet and the beds were really comfortable - especially for this affordable price range.

Contras: The biggest downside was the the room itself did not actually smell particularly fresh or clean. It wasn't bad enough to complain, but it definitely didn't have a feeling of being spotless. They also charge a ridiculous 17€ per person for breakfast . I'm fine with paying for good food, but when you're in a city like Vienna, you can get incredible breakfasts at local cafes for less than half that price. We almost wondered if it was intentionally high to discourage people from eating there!

Prós: The location is good..

Contras: Expensive hotel, not up to five star standards... Decent breakfast, but not excellent... Poor pillows..

Prós: Location near subway , quite

Contras: Air conditionar a bit hot

Prós: The Room is nice and clean

Contras: Bathroom is all open without blinds ..

Prós: Location was perfect for us and the Vienna is a beautiful city.

Prós: Lovely friendly and helpful staff. Great breakfast .

Prós: The location is great, the rooms are very spacious and clean. Highly recommended!

Contras: Everything was okay.

Prós: Leaving the hotel

Contras: Without any doubt, the worst 5* hotel I visited in my life (200+). At arrival, I was tired and jumped directly into the bed to relax : Quantity of hairs on the bed (not mine), which means they didn’t change the bed linen, but just made the bed and covered properly and nicely with the blanket. Are you kidding me ? Disgusting. Then I became paranoid and started to check everything. Results of the study : Nasty underwear (not mine) next to the bed behind the curtain. They let the toilet paper roll with 1 sheet last. Beautiful brown traces in the toilet from the previous visitor as welcome gift. (Thank you my friend, you did it well !) Dispensers in the room were nasty, sticky, empty (not enough to take a shower). Did they clean the room ????? What a shame for such an incredible and inspiring city. I did complain. No excuses, nothing. Nobody came to change the bed or to see this disaster. I slept with my pants and jacket. Horrible feeling. Breakfast = disgraceful.

Prós: ארוחת בוקר מצוינת. חדרים גדולים ומרווחים מיטות נוחות. צוות אדיב ונחמד

Contras: חדר כושר מיושן מעט מתקנים .

Prós: Room was very modern, though the toilet and sink are on separate sides of the room. There is an all glass shower, so make sure you only room with people who don't mind seeing you naked in the shower. Location was walk-able to many of the sites in Vienna as well as several convenient locations.

Contras: The SPA must work 6:30 too 10:30

Prós: Breakfast and relatively close to the downtown. Good staff. Tea / coffee/ water at the lobby are available any time and for free.

Contras: Our room was too old, especially shower, and may be because of this it it seemed to be not clean. In the night we got troubles to get into the room as something went wrong with our cards, we tried to renew them for several times but it hadn’t helped till the receptionist came with physical keys as plastic did not served any longer. It was too noisy from 6 a.m. and cigarettes smoke got into our bathroom.

Prós: The hotel had secure parking which we pre-booked underneath the hotel. It only had 6 spaces so it needs to be booked ahead. It was central to the old city so walking to sights was easy. Many restaurants and shops were nearby.

Prós: The staff was great , all of them are very polite cooperative helpful and always a smile on their faces

Contras: Don’t book the attic rooms it’s horrible

Prós: Great location, friendly staff, good breakfast and nice lounge area where free tea no coffee are available at all times

Contras: The room and linen was clean however the shower head and the trim around the shower needed replacing. This made it not as clean as it should have been.

Prós: Beds were very comfy . Staff were all lovely and very helpful

Prós: Beds clean and comfortable......central location.....staff very friendly and helpful

Contras: It couldn't have been better

Prós: Plenty of choice at breakfast, food always fresh and appetising. Also tea, coffee, nuts and fruit available through the day. The hotel is quietly situated, not in the centre, but very near the metro and quite handy for the Hop-on Hop-off bus. Pleasant eating places nearby.

Contras: No real storage space for cases in the bedroom.

Prós: Comfortable beds, good location to downtown. Plenty of restaurants around the hotel.

Contras: Shower stall was small and shower door did not close properly.

Prós: The bed was comfy and a good selection at breakfast. Lots of good restaurants within walking distance.

Contras: Very small room with the smallest shower room I've ever seen. Sink at right angle in front of toilet.

Prós: The hotel was good, staff was very friendly and helpful and breakfast was good

Prós: Everything. No need to say moret

Contras: Everything is quite fine at the Zipser. Great location, very competent and attentive staff, very clean room and great breakfast. Actually, this was the second time I stayed at the Zipser this year

Prós: Great reception staff Excellent breakfast Goot location

Prós: Perfectly located hotel. Clean enough. Nice service. Attentive staff.

Prós: Excellent breakfast. Great location for a good price. Quiet.

Contras: Our room was a bit dated. But I sense that it’s one of the last rooms due to be renovated. Still quiet and comfortable and clean.

Prós: I did like the room and the calm atmosphere and the staff hard working at the Breakfast.

Contras: Get one more coffee-machine at breakfast. And please do something to the bad acoustic environment in Breakfast rooms.

Prós: place

Contras: old

Prós: Excellent location, clean and comfortable hotel. Nice room and goodbreakfast

Prós: Locality. Value for money

Contras: Nothing

Prós: Singe room is recently renovated, facilities are new and clean, bed is comfortable

Contras: Everything was ok, soundproofing in the room might be better, a bit far from main city center attractions

Prós: Great breakfast. Nice and helpful receptionists. Quiet neighborhood, but close to the centre and restaurants. Comfortable bed.

Contras: Room, reception and the hall look old fashioned and need refurbishment. It looks rather like a hostel or corridor in the block of flats than at the hotel. I was staying in premium room, but it was small and looked different than on the photos. Room was very dark, even during shiny day. Window with the "overlooking the courtyard" was small and it was impossible to see something outside. Also you have to be careful with the possibility of blocking funds on your credit card after reservation (they blocked me 99 euros, although reservation was free of charge and I choose paying on site). I was also cheated by a taxi-driver ordered via reception. On the reception receptionist told me that trip to the airport will be cost 40 euros, driver demanded 45 and give me receipt for 40 euros. I reported it on the reception, but probably nothing will happen with it, so be careful!
