We booked this hotel at short notice for a 1 night stay - myself and wife and my parents, 2 double rooms.
We arrived early but were allowed to check-in to the rooms. Reception staff were extremely helpful and friendly with advice, maps etc.
We paid just 59 euros a room which is unbelievable value for this hotel - breakfast (hot and cold buffet - well stocked) was an additional 15.50 euros each.
The hotel is obviously very new, clean and modern.
WIFI only really worked properly in one room but that was good enough for our needs.
We booked two double rooms, one came with just a shower, the other with bath and shower. I'm sure if it bothered my parents, they could have moved to another room but it was not an issue for them as they prefer showers.
Walking to town is not a problem - less than 20 minutes, although taxis, tram and metro are all an option very close to the hotel.
The location around the hotel is very quiet. We stayed on a Saturday night. The immediate area houses a large exhibition centre and a number of other hotels. We thought we would eat local and not knowing the area well and having a fruitless 10 minute stroll, opted for the hotel restaurant.
Turned out to be an excellent choice. On offer was a hot buffet or full choice a la carte. Both excellent value.
We opted for the a la carte and everything ordered was very well presented and cooked perfectly. Being a hotel, international cusine was on offer as well as specialist Austrian dishes (due to the hotel chain origins). We had a mixture of both between us with no complaints at all.
Parking cost us 27 euros for approx 25 hours - although we did notice after pulling into the hotel car park there are free spaces available in surrounding street - if you are lucky therefore it can be free.
The wife used the gym on Sunday morning and had it to herself. It was pretty small but had the usual equipment and, of course, due to the newness of the hotel, everything was working and clean.
Overall, we found the staff, cleanliness and location (as it didn't rain and we like a stroll) excellent. Brilliant for our quick trip to view this lively city and it's famous christmas markets.
