Pasamos una sola noche en este hotel por ajustes en nuestro itinerario. Llegando de Praga, en la misma estación sudbanhof nos hizo la reserva una agencia. En 5 minutos caminando ya estábamos a las puertas del hotel. Una excelente ubicación, cerca del tren, transporte público, y caminando de los jardines Belvedere, y de Karlsplatz. En la esquina hay un buen restaurante de comida local. La habitación limpia y amplio espacio para el equipaje. El desayuno suficiente para un día, pero si estarán ahí por varios acabarán pasando hambre. Desde mi habitación la vista era al patio interior, y a todas horas se podía escuchar a los otros huéspedes entrar y salir, al hijo de los vecinos llorando, al personal de la cocina moviendo platos . . . Otro detalle, no tienen aire acondicionado ni ventilador (pero es lo común en Vienna), lo que es terrible en verano. En mi opinión cumplió su función para pasar una noche sin reserva previa, pero con tiempo se puede encontrar mejores condiciones por la mitad de precio. Eso sí, el personal de lo más agradable y servicial.

I chose this hotel for a business trip because of the convenient location relative to the premises I was to visit, despite the rather unsavoury neighbourhood.
Unfortunately, after checking in I discovered that the room I was booked in was abysmal. Cracks in the wall, large patches of moisture on the walls, absurdly hard beds. Also, the only source of light above the bed was a naked halogen lamp (!) (I wondered about the danger of ignition from that, so I turned it on as little as possible).
The bathroom was tolerably furnished and cleaned, though.
Overall, despite the rather friendly management this hotel is not fit for human habitation and ought to have been renovated years ago.
