Check-in time was at 2.00 pm and I arrived at 8.00 am., which was a minor complication, but I left my luggage and went out. The staff is really nice and helpful, and the room is great.
The room is extremely small and dark. The wardrobe door was broken, the shower panel door was broken and the shelf in the bathroom was broken and the TV wasn,t working. Overall I would say it was disgusting. There was no response after making a complaint and the girl in the reception didnt even attempt to make the TV work
Good street signs so it was easy to find from the tram stop. Very good breakfast. About a 40 minute walk to downtown if you like to walk and if not, there are public transit connections within meters of the front door. I would gladly stay again.
Was this the first time you stayed at Hotel Gabriel? NO
What was your general experience at Hotel Gabriel?
It's a great palce to stay. Good Access to public transports like Train, Tram & Buses. Of course well connected to all parts of Vienna.
Even though I booked the Hotel for three nights, I wanted to stay there only for two nights. When I give this information to the recptionist, I got a great welcome and he accepted it immediately. What a flexible travelling they are facilitating even at the end moment!! :) :)
The hotel in general is very nice (4 days). Still there are several issues i`d like to point out:
1. our room was near the lift, and it was rather noisy even during night time when it was being used.
2. The location is rather comfortable - near is the undeground station (even 2), and in the 10 minuts walk is the station of the speed train to the airport (it is some 20 minuts by this train to get to the airoprt). It is 20 minuts walk to the center, but still it is much more comfortable to use undeground to get there (in the evening its not very pleasant to walk that way).
Breakfast was very nice. The room was clean and the personnal was friendly.
