Great for the Price

Although it wasn't exactly in the city center it was a great hotel considering what we paid. The day we arrived our sink was backed up and the hotel immediately gave us a new room. The views are excellent with western light and a beautiful view of the Belvedere Botanical Gardens.

Needs Improvement

Although this hotel not within the "ring" it is conveniently located within a ten minute walk from both the Sudbanhof train station and trhe ring. From the train station one can walk through the beautiful Belvedere Palace grounds to reach it. As requested, our room overlooked the palace. The rooms on the other side of the hotel had no view to speak of. Our first impression was that the decor and furnishings were absolutely top class - very modern and rather striking. The front desk, elevators and bedrooms are a sight to behold. The headboard on our bed was illuminated with a spectacular picture of an iris and the linens were of a very high quality. The hotel was spotless throughout. On the downside, the dining room menu was somewhat lacklustre, our room had a nice shower and infra red heat lamp but did not have a bath tub (However, other roms MAY have had one and we didn't specifically request a bath tub) and, although wake-up service was available, we did not have an alarm clock which, when traveling, makes one's life a lot easier. We ordered breakfast (17.5 Euros per person plus 3 Euros service fee) through room service. It arrived exactly on time. However, it was not what we ordered and, apart from the bread and butter, none of it was eaten. The room service menu was limited. Most of it was comprised of dishes with which only Europeans would be familiar. Therefore, I would recommend that they add some selections which would appeal to non-European visitors (e.g. cornflakes, bacon and eggs, etc.). Finally, there were no in-room tea/coffee-making facilities. Once again, tea and coffee were probably avaiable through room service(although they were not on the room service menu) but, when it is 10 below zero outside and you get back to your room craving a hot cup of tea, the thought of calling room service, waiting for 30 minutes to have it delivered and paying 4 or 5 Euros a cup is not what guests want. They just was a cup of tea and they want it now! We found all th
