K+K Hotel Maria Theresia - Vienna, Austria     

My wife and i stayed one night in this hotel on a short sight seeing trip.I have to say that i couldn't fault the place -The location was excellent literally around the corner from the museum quarter where you are treated to some incredible history and architecture -the staff on the front desk provided the best service i've encountered.We initially were given a twin room so i immediately rang down and requested a double.Within two minutes the key to a double room was delivered to our door.They also provided us with a phone charger and an adapter for my wife's hair dryer. Believe me when i say this was a treat after the"customer service" we recieved in slovakia(kip) -the rooms were lovely,modern and comfortable and with plenty of space for the two of us -the cost was probably a little more than we would normally pay but in my opinion it was worth every penny -the included buffet breakfast was superb smoked salmon,fresh croissants,baked breads etc... stay there you won't be disappointed

The Maria Theresia is a real gem, a true find! It's a boutique-style hotel, very tastefully decorated (in a style that recalls Scandinavian design), in a great location--just a few blocks from the subway (metro) and bus and trolley lines, the Museum Quarter, and it's in the Spittelberg area, which I gather used to be a red light district but has been gentrified with art galleries, small shops, cafes, restaurants which reminded us of Tribeca-SoHo in NYC. There's no official "concierge" but all the women (no men?) at the front desk were super-helpful! Example: I had left my digital camera in Budapest, and the Maria Theresia staff made phone calls to the concierge in Budapest to arrange for him to send the camera back to me in the U.S. I wasn't charged for long-distance calls or faxes the Maria Theresia staff made; and, which other tripadvisor contributors haven't all mentioned, the hotel has four computer terminals with free Internet access, so I was able to keep in contact with the Budapest concierge without running up big Internet charges. The Maria Theresia is on a quiet cobblestone sidestreet, and there are good cafes and restaurants within just a block of the place. Go...you'll love it!
