I really enjoyed my stay here. The location is great, near many public transit lines, restaurants, and stores. The room was beautiful, and the bed was divinely comfy. Stayed 3 nights with my mom, and we have no complaints.
This hotel is a little gem. Attentive staff, clean property, the rooms are perfect size for 2 people.
There’s 2 restaurants and 2 bars on property, one being on their rooftop. Will definitely recommend this hotel!
This was a beautiful hotel in a great location. Our room was spacious and well equipped to make for comfortable stay. From the hotel we could walk to many great attractions and explore this amazing city. The staff were very helpful and friendly. We will stay here again!
Very beautiful hotel. My wife and I enjoyed our stay and would go back for sure. Train station is right outside the hotel. Patisserie on the ground level, nice rooftop patio and restaurant with a beautiful dining room. Great area. Hard to find things to complain about.
What a gem of a hotel this is! While the room was fairly small, it was absolutely beautifully appointed with extremely comfortable beds. The attention to detail was outstanding and had great storage so even though a bit small, we were able to unpack what we needed and store our luggage out of the way. In fact, the sink/shower room was so spacious I kept one of my bags in there! And it's literally 10 steps away from the entrance to the subway and two stops from Stepansplatz. Everyone we had contact with on staff were friendly and helpful.
Extra bonus, the weather was great so we were able to enjoy the rooftop terrace bar and by chance decided to have dinner in the hotel at Chez Bernard. It was so good we dined there again for dinner and for breakfast. I would definitely book here again and recommend to friends.
Hotel Motto is an incredible boutique hotel, and the spot you’re looking for if you’re an independent traveler that wants a beautiful home base. It’s a little further from most tourist sights but conveniently next to a metro train station. The Michelin Bib Gourmand rated restaurant and roof top bar were tasty and their cafe a perfect breakfast spot. While I wouldn’t consider this a “luxurious hotel”, it’s certainly one of the trendiest boutique hotels I’ve stayed in and I would certainly stay again.

Beautiful, fun and functionally designed hotel with a great restaurant!
Small luxurious Boutique hotel that provides excellent service. Rooms were amazing. Staff were amazing. My only gripe, not that I needed it, was that there was no desk upon which to write or use my laptop. Otherwise, everything else was amazing.
Loved everything about this place. Great location for shopping and museum with easy access to public transportation. Or you could just walk as it is very centrally located in Vienna. Still, there was no street noise when I went to bed.
Lovely staff all the way through. Very welcoming and helpful. Loved my room. The decor and the amenities are so well thought out. And it is great to have both restaurant, bar and spa on site if you want a slow day. Do remember to book a table in the restaurant as it is quite popular with both guests and locals.
This hotel was amazing! He loved every part of it from the friendly and helpful staff to the room and the restaurant! The rooms were good size and the bed was comfortable! We loved our stay!
The rooms were very nice and the restaurant in the hotel was amazing. Staff were great and location couldn’t have been better. Very convenient to shopping and everything was outside of the doorstep.
We had a wonderful stay at the Hotel Motto Vienna and felt very welcomed from check in. The hotel lived up to its boutique description and we found the location incredible with a shopping mall and Neubaugasse subway just outside the front door. Bus transport was also easily walkable.
Definitely recommend this hotel as an alternative to central Vienna with it’s excellent transport links.
Excellent lokation for exploring the beautiful city of Vienna. Walking distance to Old Town Centre and hundreds of restaurants. Beautiful rooms and cozy atmosphere with a delicious restaurant on the top floor. Try the J’taime breakfast!
