Location and ambience great. Room good for the price, very hot due to temperatures in Vienna. Breakfast great, we didn't eat dinner there but it was very popular. If you wnat to eat on Friday and Saturday night you must book.
Price was a little high.

Great location, spacious rooms, good breakfast.
Spacious rooms with high windows. Funky, furniture with a lot of history behind. Good breakfast. Really good location - minutes from city centre. Staff was friendly and helpful. Will definitely visit again.

Very Pinterest-friendly hotel with nice breakfast
Nice breakfast, where you order from a menu instead of a buffet. Very nice, well made and tasty 👌 Big room! Very nice retro interior 👌
The flickering light at the hallway bothered us a bit late at night. Our toddler had a hard time sleeping because of it.

Beautiful hotel with amazing patio. Very original with the 60ies design. Room was nice and clean. There are different options for breakfast, all very simple but delicious and totally satisfying.
Bathroom in our room was a little small.

Lovely hotel
I already reviewed this hotel from our first stay a week before. The location was good and the breakfast was good.

This was a great place to stay for our first visit to Vienna and Austria
We stayed at the hotel twice , For 4 nights and then for 3 nights a week later.The rooms were both comfortable and spacious. The breakfast was large which was fine as we were then on the go in the city. the location was good with buses and trams close (a few minutes) ant the metro a few more minutes on a long pedestrian shopping street.
there is not much we didn't like. When people were outside and talking on the ground floor while having drinks they sound reverberated up to our room.

Vienna is amazing!
courtyard is amazing good breakfast although soft boiled egg was hard three times out of four
shower has separate cold/hot taps not enough sockets in the room. only two!

very beautiful
I liked the decor and overall vibe of the place
the noises of the internal courtyard are amplified and are heard a lot from the room. This happens both early in the morning when cleaning starts on the ground floor and in the restaurant, and if someone stops to chat late in the evening in the restaurant

good stuff very viennese
good place location design inside, restaurant was very nice, it’s a hidden gem
less light and basic/small rooms, the photos look better than the place, the service sleeps (not everyone)

Botique hotels dream of being so unique!
There is a real sense of atmosphere, the hotel has a personality that makes it cozy, personable, and unique. The rooms were fine, but the decor of the facilities were amazing, using mid century furniture in the restaurant and lots of other small details and decorations in the lobby and rooms gave everything a special ambiance.
Maybe the walls are a bit thin, but it’s an older building so we don’t hold it against them!

A nice, atmospheric, informal hotel where I felt good, comfortable and happy.
The breakfast was good, tasty and nicely presented, but it was the first time, when I had to order breakfast with menu. It's actually good. I also liked the style of the hotel - vintage design, many artworks, lovely place. To sum up, a nice, atmospheric, informal hotel where I felt good, comfortable, happy and enjoyed all the meals and the lovely room.
The hotel was nice and people working there as well, although a bit impersonal feeling. Maybe because I arrived late nobody was there at the reception and also later I hardly met anyone, but in general it's also not so necessary. And to my opinion for a 3 star hotel the price was too high even for an Easter time. But maybe that is a totally normal price for a Vienna city.

Very happy I found the place. Recommended for a weekend visit.
Cute retro design in the room and the restaurant. Great selection of breakfast options. Young friendly staff. Water pressure and shower head were optimal. Courtyard was charming and quiet. Good location for feeling like a local, not a tourist paths.
The mattress and pillows were substandard. Lighting options in the room were not great. Wasn’t spending any time in the room, so it was fine, but it wasn’t a nice space to relax in.

Brilli-my favourite haunt in Vienna

Great, helpful staff all around. Strategic position to explore the city on foot, and just a stone's throw away from the buses to and from the train stations.
The soundproofing of the room was... interesting. The room gave onto the internal courtyard, so some noise from that direction was expected and not really annoying. However, the doors and walls are pretty thin, and I could hear the couple from the door across mine whenever they went to the bathroom or danced the horizontal tango. There are worse soundtracks, I guess.rr
