Excellent location

Excellent location in the centre of Vienna. Beautiful old building with lots of character, room was small but modern and was ideal for a few days. We had a problem with safe, which was attended to swiftly.

This was the most spacious room we had in all of our travels around Europe. It is centrally located, beautiful, and clean. Since this is a self-checkin property, it isn’t immediately obvious where the entry is and the number of doors to go through to get to the apartment is ‘unique’ but that all added to the charm.

I stayed at Pension Central in Vienna and was disappointed. The check-in process was straightforward and the room itself was decent, but the experience went downhill. The air conditioning was turned off due to some “seasonality” policy the hotel follows. No problem if it was in bold in the booking engine. Because of this, I had no choice but to open the windows, and the street noise was unbearably loud all night long. Sleeping was nearly impossible till 3:15 am. If they would simply leave the AC running, guests could keep the windows closed and rest peacefully. I sent a message through the travel agency to inform them of the issue. They acknowledged receiving it but never offered any solution or response before I departed. For the price, this place is not worth the no sleep or the headaches. I strongly recommend staying elsewhere in Vienna. They were kind and opened the safe the night before when I could not get it to open before departing early AM. Mixed feelings primarily because of the noise and no solution at all to remedy.

Loved the room and location. Clean, has a safty box, confortable, could make tea and coffee in the room. Easy check in. Did not like that the room was not completely dark at night, and you could hear the cars and people in the street, but it was not very disturbing for us.

Perfect location for sightseeing on foot and by public transport. Nice bakery opposite for brekkie though not open sundays or public holidays. The office stored our luggage. But the room was very hot even with radiator off and windows open all day in december. Too much traffic noise to have them fully open at night but we had to leave them open.

Harika bir konaklama

Otelin konumu çok güzel. Schwedenplatz'a çok yakın.U-bahn ile hemen her yere ulaşabiliyorsunuz. Etrafında, restoranlar, cafeler çok iyi seçenekler var. Odalar çok temizdi. İstediğiniz sıklıkta havlularınız değişiyor. Su ısıtıcısı, temel tabak, bardak gibi servis eşyaları da var.Kahve ve çay eksildikçe yeniliyorlar.Genel olarak çok memnun kaldık.Bir dahaki gelişimizde yine burada kalmak isteyeceğiz.
