“ideal place to stay for Vienna sightseeing”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 February 2012

This was an excellent hotel for seeing Vienna. Just a short walk over the river to the Inner Stadt-where one can find most of the main attractions.
Reception staff courteous and helpful.Breakfast top notch-including free champagne! What a way to start a days hard sightseeing!
Room warm and bed comfortable---and a deep bath to wallow in before sampling the many Viennese restaurants and bars.
We look forward to returning.

Room Tip: Upper floor facing the inner courtyard ensures a quiet night

Good location, only a short walk to attractions. Pleasant staff and good breakfast selection. We travelled with our three children and they had a room close by. Clean rooms and good bathroom.

I really enjoyed been in this hotel, all was very clean and the receptionist very kind to book for me the taxi and the tiket for the concert!
Airport is very close to the central area, and also there is a bus connection for only 7 euro.

The hotel is really in the central area, and all was very close on walking distance.
Thank you very much dears, I will came again soon!

“great hotel, lovely area and amazing breakfast”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 December 2011
1
person found this review helpful

Hotel City Central is a great deal! The location is wonderful, just a short walk to the inner stradt, in a new "boho" area with great access to the sights of vienna. The breakfast selection is great, a huge assortment of cheeses, meats, breads, juice, cereal, yogurt, and fruit and is one of the best selections i have seen! While the rooms are a bit old/ on the tired side and smallish, they were however VERY clean and the bed is extremely comfortable. The staff was very helpful, accommodating and pleasant. A grocery store is literally next door, and therefore easy access to pick up a quick snack. Overall i had a great stay and would highly recommend hotel city central!!
