Positive Reviews
positive:
Great value for money...
Travellers who do not require much in the way of "frills" rave about this hotel's value for money. The rooms are widely considered very clean and spacious "by ibis standards," with simple, modern furnishings and gleaming hardwood floors. The wi-fi is free and the parking is widely considered reasonably priced.
positive:
A good location for work or play...
The Vienna ICC and the Messe are about 15-minutes away on foot, ideal for guests who need a budget friendly stop during a trade fair, which tends to raise prices significantly. The Prater Amusement Park is within 5 min walk, and the historic old town centre, museums, and the State Opera House, are just a few u-Bahn stops away. The Praterstern station is within a short walk and also offers a direct train to the airport.
positive:
Friendly, knowledgeable staff...
The hotel's entire staff is widely described as very friendly, professional, and helpful. International travellers appreciate that the team has several languages among them, including English.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Showering "in the open"...
Few guests fail to mention that the shower and sink are "in the middle of the room", with only a little bit of frosted glass for privacy, a terribly awkward arrangement for some travelling companions.
negative:
Breakfast a bit light for the price...
Though many guests enjoy the breakfast buffet, others feel it could offer a wider array of hot or heartier options for the price.
negative:
Very firm beds...
Though guests who enjoy a firmer mattress enjoy a pleasant night, many describe the beds as just "too hard" and some are also dismayed by the lack of other creature comforts like a fridge, phone, or alarm clock.
