Expert reviews

Fodors review:

“Smack behind the Albertina and the Staatoper, this authentically Austrian boutique hotel is an absolutely delightful addition to the Vienna lodging scene, with fabulous views of the heart of the Innere Stadt.”

Featured as Fodor’s Choice in Vienna.

New York Times review:

“A prime location, generous space and an extremely livable atmosphere make this an excellent option in one of the most colorful capitals in the Old World. The Guesthouse brings modern yet comfortable interior design by Terence Conran to one of Vienna’s most attractive neighborhoods.”

Telegraph review:

“Sharing the same square as the Albertina, Opera House and Sacher Hotel, this property is a favourite among the hotel offerings in the city centre. It is remarkable what happens to a youth hostel in the hands of Sir Terence Conran. The transformation has succeeded on every level.”

Very good boutique hotel. I will definitely stay again.

Very nice boutique hotel. Large and well equipped room. Perfect location. Nice staff. The mini bar is included in the room price and is well stocked including a good selection of Austrian wines.

The lack of lobby. Very narrow space for the reception.

Would absolutely come back and stay here!

We absolutely loved our stay- the staff were so welcoming, friendly and helpful. The room was beautiful, pristine and a great size. We loved the amenities and the drinks/snacks included that got replenished each day. The location was incredible! We walked everywhere and didn’t touch public transport the entire time. Right in the heart of everything without it feeling crowded or loud.

My only complaint is that the pillows were very flat - it would have been nice to have some extras in the room (in the wardrobe or something) or an option of something a bit firmer.

I would like to go back to Vienna and would definitely go back to The Guesthouse without hesitation

Guesthouse is in a perfect location for transport, shopping and sight seeing. The room was spacious and clean with additional items provided including a free minibar restocked every day!

The lay-out of the shower and sink could have been better but this was a minor issue.

Excellent hotel! Perfect location right in the heart of the city’s main attractions, making it easy to explore everything on foot. The staff is extremely friendly and attentive, always ready to help. The accommodations are new, comfortable, and beautifully decorated. We received welcome chocolates, which was a very special touch. Another highlight is the delicious café attached to the hotel. Without a doubt, a great choice that made all the difference in our stay in Vienna. Highly recommended

Excellent location. Good cafe/restaurant on site. Staff vey helpful. Rooms comfortable and spacious

Location was excellent. Staff were very helpful. Rooms were clean and spacious. Breakfast and dinner selections were excellent. Four free bottles of wine in each room which can also be used when taking dinner in their restaurant.

We were twice squeezed onto a table for 4 for breakfast, when we were 6 people. Would have preferred a dressing table rather than the couch in our rooms.

Highly Recommended: Exceptional Hospitality and Attention to Detail

Upon arriving at the hotel, we were greeted by a prompt and friendly staff, making us feel comfortable immediately. We received all the necessary information and guidance about the surrounding area, attractions, and restaurants. We were pleasantly surprised with Austrian wines, water, and other complimentary beverages in our room, along with a dessert and a handwritten welcome card from the hotel management—this already confirmed that our choice was the right one. The breakfast at the restaurant was excellent; we enjoyed it every day of our stay. The staff also assisted us with reservations at the restaurants they recommended, even securing a special table at a Michelin Guide restaurant, which impressed us even more. In short, highly recommended. Congratulations to the hotel team—you are doing an outstanding job!

Nothing major that detracts from the hotel overall, but the bathroom has a glass partition separating the toilet from the bed area. Currently, the toilet light is linked to the sink and shower lights, which can be disturbing at night for someone who is trying to sleep. I recommend separating the toilet light from the sink and shower lights.

Fabulous location, very close to all the best sites and easy walk to the underground, giving you access to the whole city. Room was modern, spacious and comfortable and most of the mini bar, including the great wine, was included.

We would have liked help with our luggage at arrival and departure, as there was no ramp and we had to lift heavy cases into the property.

A gem of a hotel in a great location

The room was very nice, the largest non-suite I could have expected. Very comfortable and spacious bed. Great coffee machine and complimentary wine and beverages! Fantastic location, right next to the Opera house and the main pedestrian street, and within walking distance of most inner city attractions. Very friendly and helpful front desk staff.

The bathroom fixtures are nice and modern but it lacks shelf room and towel hangers.

First class. Central location, attentive staff and lovely little touches.

Absolutely superb. Staff very friendly and wrre quick to attend to anything you needed. Location is incredible, right in the heart of district one. Little touches like the book nook and the complimentary wine/beer made a big difference. Loved it. Will be back.

Rooms were cleaned a little late around 4.30pm which was a little disruptive when trying to get ready for dinner.

Great location and the best staff of any hotel. A few improvements to the aircon are needed.

Great location and amazing staff where no task is too small for. The room was clean and well appointed. The breakfast was reasonable prices and delicious. 24 hour room service too :)

The aircon is terrible on the 7th floor and needs to go much cooler in summer (yes I read the instructions and asked the staff too) we gave up halfway through the night being so hot and sweaty and were lucky the windows opened on a cool night. The TV setup is also quite small and old with no streaming - considering they make a point of saying “Bang and Olufsen TV” in the listing you would think it should have been great.

A very pleasant base to start our exploration of Austria

Located just a very short walk from the Opera House, the hotel is in a great position to reach both the sights of central Vienna and transport to places like Schönbrunn Palace. The room was very comfortable and we felt that we had plenty of space. The airport pick-up as part of the package was very helpful, although reaching the hotel using public transport would be straightforward (the nearest metro station entrance is only 5-10 minutes walk). A minibar that actually contained a good selection of (free!) soft drinks was great. The wine would have been free too, but we're not drinkers. We didn't eat at the hotel but there was plenty to offer for breakfast and beyond.

Having a hotel named "The Guesthouse" slightly confused our taxi driver, with "which guesthouse?" being his immediate question! The view from the room wasn't great (an inner courtyard) but we weren't expecting anything particularly special, so that wasn't really an issue.

Utterly wonderful

The Guesthouse is superb. It is opposite the Albertina’s and in the middle of town. No detail is overlooked from providing guests with personalised cards showing the Guesthouse as their address to 4 complimentary and very tasty bottles of wine and fragrance spray for the pillows.
