Cannot recommend this hotel more. It was clean, great facilities, rooms spotless and the breakfast/bar setting is like no other in Vienna.
Very impressed with everything
Clean room, nice staff and customer service and good location with amazing views at breakfast. Nicko was so nice and provided excellent customer service. Rooms need a bit more lighting as can seem a bit dark at times. Stayed in a double aspect room however only 1 side has black out slides the other window has nothing.
This hotel has an excellent location,close to city centre and the train line which takes you all over the city. The hotel itself is clean and modern. The breakfast is fantastic with great views over the city as you eat! Would 100% go back to this hotel if visiting Vienna again.
Warm welcome by staff members, rooms were great with an amazing bathtub, view over Vienna, clean and the bar was amazing! Centrally located , highly recommend!
We had a fantastic stay at SO/ Vienna! The staff were friendly, welcoming, and very helpful. The room - which was unexpectedly upgraded! - was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped. The location was perfect for exploring the area. It is within short walking distance to amazing restaurants and sites and is also quite close to public transit. Everything exceeded our expectations. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it!
