Hotel Schloss Wilhelminenberg Aus - Vienna, Austria 

We (me and my husband) absolutely loved staying at this hotel. The staff was friendly and helpful, the hotel is beautiful, with an amazing view over the city of Vienna. Best part: - Big, beautiful room (we had an executive room). - Breakfast was very good (but not included, as we had thought). - Easy access to the city, with a bus stop just outside the Hotel. What we liked least: - There were some renovations going on, which made it difficult sleeping-in in the morning. - The rooms are not that well insonoritated. - The internet is not free and not cheap. All this said, I would definitely re-book at the Hotel Schloss Wilhelminenberg any time. In fact, at the end of our trip in Austria, we were back in Vienna and decided to try another hotel for its location downtown and regreted it. Sophie, Canada

We arrived late at night at the Wilhelminenberg hotel, after alittle confusion finding it, to no problems at check in, the front desk men were of great help, and offered maps and the subway card to purchase, i believe it is called the vienna card, or something like this, its a 3 day pass, and its fantastic. After you rest, and get up to go into town, go out front, and take either the 46b or the 146b bus in either direction to get down to the subway stop, it sounds long, but the bus comes every 10 min. or so, and it doesnt really matter which direction you take, so take the first bus that comes along, there is a bank on the bottom of the hill if you take the 146b that will change your money. The best thing about the Wilhelminenberg is the view, man was it great, especially in the winter, the hotel sits on a huge game park, with tons of trials for hiking, and walking also. There was a skating rink set up and they had there own version of the christmas markets that was really fun to go and look around. Some quick perks of the hotel, free internet, free ironing of our cloths, A GREAT breakfast buffet in the morning, very, very, quiet on the hill at all hours, easy access to the bus, which gets you to the metro. Staff (all) went above duty with being concerned that we didnt show up for a dinner reservation we made and forgotten about, and we ate in town, and they saved some meals for us in any event, and were looking for us to arrive back, to make sure we were save. The only thing i would tell you to make sure to bring with you is bar's of soap if you dont like the push button kind, there was was wall containers and shower containers with soap in it, but no soap bars. The bathroom was very nice, and hot water through out. I booked over the internet and didnt pay too much over 100 euros a night, and was a great bargain. At check out, no problems, and just so yo uknow, there is a youth hostel right next door, seems pretty nice, but i didnt check it out.
