I loved this hotel and would return without hesitation. It’s nicely situated just outside the main tourist area but within an easy walk of major attractions. It’s also very close to a subway stop. The room was beautifully decorated, roomy, bright and airy. It had really high ceilings. And the shower was very good, though it did routinely leak onto the floor. That was the only problem and it was relatively minor. Breakfast was good though the service there was inconsistent. The first day a server told me the specials and took my order. The second day I had to chase someone down. I skipped breakfast the third day. Otherwise the service was excellent. The afternoon tea and cake in the salon was nice too.

We really enjoyed our 5 night stay in this beautiful hotel which aims to be, and certainly provides, a home from home. The staff were friendly and helpful from the moment we arrived. Breakfast was superb - we really enjoyed the special daily shot and hot choice - and afternoon tea delicious. Our room was beautifully styled, the bed was comfortable and the bath a bonus. Finally the location was great for exploring the city by foot or using the very efficient and affordable public transport system. We would love to return to this hotel one day and look forward to discovering another of the very individual rooms.

The staff at Alstadt is incredible. Service is friendly, prompt and anticipitory. They offer a complimentary breakfast and absoloutely lovely Afternoon Tea complete with pianist. There is wonderful art installed throughout the property and a rooftop terrace for relaxation outdoors. A nice amenity in a city hotel. The hotel is quiet and the housekeeping staff remembers what guests like (extra coffee for the in-room Nespresso) and provide same. Would stay again without hesitation.

Enjoyed the location close to the Museum Quarter. We parked our car in the MQ garage about a 15 minute walk from hotel. It was about a 10 minute walk to the Ringstrasse. Staff was very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was delightful. Room is small and sink was in the room instead of bathroom. Street noise is loud so had to keep windows closed at night.

The Altstadt is truly special and one of a kind. It’s like staying in your own private art museum. But it isn’t stuffy, not one bit. They serve a cake and candy tea each afternoon to their guests! There’s a secret roof terrace with snacks! The staff is absolutely top notch, the warmest and most helpful folks ever. They will give you fantastic recommendations for local restaurants and shops. And it’s remarkably quiet given that the hotel is less than a half mile west of the Museums Quartier and the Hofburg. PS the beds are perfect. Not too firm and not too soft. PPS Seriously the place is a treasure. The schatz kammer should be jealous.

Logo quando você entra o hall do hotel não passa assim uma boa impressão pois fica num prédio mais antigo. Porém ao subir na recepção você já fica encantada. O quarto muito espaço, banheiro enorme e com lugar para acomodar tudo. A calefação ficava ligada o dia todo então o quarto estava sempre quentinho. O time super atencioso, café com muitas variedades e a tarde serviam chá e doces. Adorei !

We booked a Large Double Room. The first room we were allocated was awful. Tiny shower room and was not decorated at all. As we said at the time, it felt like a room in a mental asylum. We were then given Room 23 which was marginally better but looked nothing like any of the rooms on the website. I had a look in other rooms when housekeeping were in and I think we got one of the worst rooms in the hotel. The restaurant recommendation we were given was not great. Overall, fine if you need to be in that part of Vienna, but not a destination hotel by any means. Short on style and certainly not luxurious.
