"Le Méridien Vienna feels palatial because, surprise, it is! This design hotel comprises four former palaces just off the Ringstraße in Vienna’s city center, and accordingly feels vast in scale. These storied, beautiful bones serve as a sophisticated canvas for some mod design, especially in the lobby and the onsite Restaurant You. This place has the dim, sexy lighting of a hotel cocktail bar, plush velvet chairs of a deep green (with even deeper seats), and a killer schnitzel to tide over picky eaters should your reservations be a little more adventurous. The gym facilities are also incredible, with a huge subterranean pool and a sauna perfect for a post-flight schvitz."

I am currently staying at Le Meridien Hotel in Vienna and my experience has been outstanding. From the moment I arrived, I was warmly welcomed by the staff. The reception was inviting and efficient, making the check-in process smooth. The room is beautifully prepared, creating a welcoming atmosphere that makes me feel right at home. The location is top-notch, allowing easy access to all the major attractions in Vienna. I highly recommend Le Meridien for its excellent hospitality and prime location.

Where do I start , from the moment we arrived until the minute we left all of the staff were amazing and really made us feel welcome and valued as a customer.|The reception staff were so helpful and every answer to a question was "yes " we can do that - so refreshing in this day and age.|We had a beautiful room on the top (8th ) floor with amazing views over the city skyline. The room was very large and spotlessly clean. Very large bed which was so comfortable . There was a large desk and chair , chaise longue , coffee tables and an additional armchair. The tea and coffee tray was well stocked and had bottled water and a very quick boiling kettle !|My only comment was the Air Conditioning struggled to keep the room cool during the high temperatures we had.|There was a safe in the wardrobe, along with slippers and " waffle " robes the wardrobe was huge with plenty of hanging space and lots of shelves, an iron , ironing board and very efficient hairdryer.|The bathroom was also quite large with a claw foot bath and separate wet room which had multiple shower jets . The bathroom was also spotless with beautiful fluffy " waffle " towels.|We had breakfast every morning which was a real treat , super friendly and helpful staff along with a bewildering choice of hot and cold food. The breakfast was quite incredible and we spent over an hour each morning relaxing and sampling lots of delicious goodies.|The hotel is beautifully presented and decorated , the multiple lifts were quick and efficient.|We used the swimming pool every day , a real bonus given the extreme temperatures we experienced during our stay , 35 degrees ! The pool was open until 21.30 which meant you could be out sightseeing all day and then relax when back at the hotel. The pool was not heated and was quite " fresh " but fine once you were in , we didn't use the gym but it seemed very busy .|The hotel is very centrally placed a few minutes walk from the Eschenbach Palace where we enjoyed several classical concerts , about 15 minutes walk to the main square and 20 minutes to the Danube where we took a river cruise. The airport is approximately 20/25minute Taxi ride away.|An amazing hotel , we will definitely be back.

Respond to the hotel feedback: Thank you for answering to the initial review. We appreciate the acknowledging and recognizing our needs and high expectations over our stay at Le Meridien Hotel. The review was not meant to be a harm nor to create tensions but mostly a feedback to attract your attention and to elevate the experience for the future guest of Le Meridien. Despite all our family or myself does not have any negative feelings towards anyone from the staff personally or such intentions. It was just a snap photo of our day there. I am glad the manager that day approached the situation in a professional manner and took time to meet.I hope an honest even not 100% positive feedback is better than flattering but not reflecting the reality. Best regards and we wish succsess to the Hotel and the staff.

Very good hotel and for the five star hotel with such an amazing location almost in the center and it wasn’t expensive. 190€ per night. Of course it depends on when you book. Tasty restaurant, I really like the Schnitzel there. Perfect location as I said. Some rooms has nice views, but they are already expensive. Good service. Also offered a free drink instead of cleaning, which was great as I always reject cleaning when I’m staying 2 days only. So free drink is a really great idea.

We booked a terrace room which was great, and the terrace was a great size with sofa & chairs. Weather was great so outside space a real bonus. Room was really clean, bed comfortable but shower was a bit weak. Hotel seemed full of coach tours, which meant breakfast was quite chaotic. Buffet area for breakfast is just a narrow corridor, way too small for a busy restaurant as you just can’t see what is on offer. Hotel in a great place & a short walk to main attractions as well as underground.

I don't know why there are so many bad reviews lately! We loved this hotel! :-) We were there last week (may 2024). We loved our room, we loved the staff, we loved the restaurant, we loved the breakfast, we loved the location. It was a perfect stay for us! If this is your first time in Vienna don't hesistate to stay here! It's walking distance from everything you need to visit! And around the corner you will find the subway (Karlsplatz) that takes you to Schönbrunn in minutes. We booked a superior room with a view over the park. Very quiet and pretty! Breakfast was delicious and bubbles/mimosa for breakfast was a plus. The hotel was full cause it was a holiday weekend but the staff at the breakfast were always smiling adn effective despite the rush! Very proffesional! We tried the restaurant one evening and the food was delicious. It seemed to very popular cause there were a lot of local people there. Unlike many others, I would definitely recommend you to stay at Le Meridien in Vienna.

The hotel is in a very good location and the room is very nice, well-designed, and spacious. It should have been a good hotel but I have to say I was very disappointed.||At the check-in, although the staff was polite and helpful, they seemed to not paying attention to the fact that I am a member of the hotel loyalty program. They didn't offer any privilege or any upgrade or even mentioned baout it. Other hotels always paid attention and tried their best to offer something special but not here.||We were a family of 3 so they charged for the extra person which was totally fine with me although prior to that other hotels that we stayed for our trip in Gern=many and Austria didn't charge us this as we always book the room with a capacity of 3 already. But then when we got to the room, they only prepared 2 sets of towels. This showed how careless they were, charging us but not preparing anything for the 3rd person.||The climax would be thebottle of drinking water was already opened !!!!!! and only had a drop of water at the bottom of the bottle. How could they make such a big mistake? it was not a 5-star not le meridien standard at all !!!!!! at first the reception didn't care much. I had to tell them how disappointed and upset I was so they came up to apologize and gave us nice bakery. It was a good gesture but they should have done it in the first place witout me complaining hard about it.||The heater in the room was also too hot that we couldn't breath. At other hotels, we could switched the heater to the air con mode or at least to a not-too-hot mode but here it was too hot.||It should have been a good hotel but in the future when I visit Vienna again, I really doubt if I would choose this hotel.

Spacious rooms, very comfortable bed, great shower. The breakfast was excellent, I enjoyed the cherries. A first class experience, very conviently located near the opera. A different experience than the nearby Sacher Hotel, more in tune with the times I would say.

Love the atmosphere and the service. Staff were friendly and accommodating. The hotel had a sauna, pool and jacuzzi. The breakfast setup was very appealing. Location was not too far from some of the historic sites and fairly close to the subway. Definitely enjoyed our stay here.

Amazing hotel. Exceptional amenities and services. Our suite was SO spacious and with modern and highly relaxing ambiance. Breakfast buffet had a variety of items to choose from - pretty much anything you could ask for, it was there. Located close to several Vienna attractions, this hotel was a great choice for our stay. I would definitely keep this hotel in my mind next time I'm in Vienna.

Le Méridien is a great hotel in an upscale quarter of the beautiful vast city of Vienna. We were lucky to have a massive room with high ceilings and a city view. My sweetheart was quite pleased that we were across from Steinway Haus and just a 5 minutes walk from Bösendorfer Piano Salon, as he is in the music industry, a talented pianist, drummer, and also very skilled piano technician. How lucky is that!! :) Le Méridien is now a part of the Marriott Bonvoy Brand thus again comfortable beds, plush towels and good service. The staff was accommodating, plus we had a chance to enjoy their brasserie lounge restaurant off the lobby serving southeast Asian cuisine, and the breakfast buffet in another section on the main floor serving all types of hot and cold breakfast choices. Vienna is another beautiful city!

DO NOT STAY HERE. I admit I was fooled by the reviews. And it is in a great location. But that's where it stops. Rooms are supposed to be ready at 3 PM but I was made to wait at least half an hour while they were cleaning. As a Gold Elite member this was the only Marriott property in my three-city vacation where I didn't get upgraded. That's fine and all but the check-in associate basically went and asked a manager and came back and said no. And the standard rooms here are tiny. Not sure if COVID changed things but there's no free mini-bar as some of the other reviews have stated and the only thing offered free downstairs was the mulled wine and punch (which they always ran out of cups for). There's a gym in the basement but - guess what - it's also tiny. As in one treadmill and limited space to move around. My biggest piece of advice though is to double-check the papers they are making you sign upon check-in. I should have had an inkling as they tried to run my credit card more than twice but I assumed as a Marriott property they would have their shit together. Much to my chagrin I found out (later on my credit card statement as they did not send me a folio) that they charged me almost double the rates on my booking confirmation. I've never had this problem before and let me tell you, trying to resolve it afterwards is a pain in the ass. To add insult to injury, the doorman didn't even hold the door open as we were leaving with our luggage. I know Austrians are not known for being friendly but good riddance. There are much better options in Vienna.

Great experience at Le Méridien on our recent stay! Convenient location by the city center, Naschmarkt, and other restaurants and sites. A large room with plenty of space and the largest bathroom I've had in Europe. Two sinks and a rainfall shower head + 2 side jets. I loved the closet with iron and board + hair dryer and mirror. So many European hotels make you plug in the hair dryer in some random part of the room with no mirror. Nice included breakfast with traditional meats and cheeses along with omelette etc. you won't go hungry! We had a terrible taxi one night who tried to scam us and they dealt with him for us and apol

This hotel is over the top with service, location, and other features. The restaurant (YOU) was delicious but could have been better. We loved being about to talk to the city center, the other buildings, and the hop-o and hop-off bus,

This is my second time at at Le Meridien property. And though I did not write about my time in Barcelona, both properties were top notch. The property in Vienna is really quite nicely located. Close enough to the middle of the city center without the crazy noise and masses of people. We paid for a larger room and got upgraded to a suite based on status. The rooms are very large even by normal standards- but massive when you consider them by European standards. Service was excellent from front staff to bell staff to housekeeping. We opted not to eat breakfast but saw a pretty large line for it every morning. The best feature for my husband was the double bathrooms in the suite. Convenient for sure! I personally loved the three way shower head lol. Over all lovely property that is well looked after and maintained. We would definitely stay here again.

Excellent place to stay in Vienna! Centrally located, a block away from the Opera House, right off of Opernring. We stayed there right up until Christmas Eve. Great place, well maintained, super friendly staff. For any Starwood Preferred Guests, they definitely extend their appreciation for your membership, much better than in the United States. The room was contemporary, good decor, and well kept. We had a view of a park. Not the place if you are expecting to get eye-popping skyline views. I would definitely stay there again. The one negative I do have to say is this, GET IRONS WITH STEAM! Yes the room had irons but not with steam, seems petty but since I iron everything its a big deal to me. Still a 5 star place and service. PS. Also apparently the hotel hosts a happy hour party once a month. Its huge with the locals, literally a line around the corner to get in. We had an absolutely amazing time there, everyone, staff and visitors were super nice and everyone was having fun. Don't worry, like I said, this hotel takes care of you. If you are a hotel guest, no lines, admission, etc. Which made it even better.

Nice high end hotel located very close to tons of sights and shopping and restaurants. Walking distance to everything. Very nicely located. There's a park right behind the hotel and across the street too. Lobby area is pretty small but very nice and plush. Bar and lounge in the lobby area as well. There was a fitness club as well downstairs. The rooms were very nice all around. Lights where you needed them, nice and modern decor. Beautiful stained glass as the head board. Nice bathroom with bathtub and seperate shower. Bath robes included. The mini bar is free too! There's a few sodas and juice and water. Nice touch. Comfortable beds and outlets where you need them.

Le Méridien was great and very welcoming. I've received welcoming emails even prior to arrival asking whether there would be anything I may need. I asked for suggestions on places to eat and was given a variety to choose from. I stayed in an Executive Suite in a corner that had a decent view. The room was great. Very modern and nicely decorated room. There are 2 bathrooms. One full and one half. The full has a deep soaking tub big enough for 2 people and an awesome shower. The shower is large and has 3 adjustable shower heads that can be used simultaneously. The room also includes a complimentary minibar. The breakfast buffet is great. There is quite a bit of variety to choose from and had pretty much exactly what I'd want. One of my favorite things that they have that others don't are smoothies. I've been to SPG hotels around the world and the first that I've noticed to have smoothies. One of the things I liked and disliked at the same time is that they give you their messaging number whether it be via What's App, iMessage or blackberry. It's convenient to just send a text and make a request than to stand in line. Especially if you're not even within proximity to the property. That is what I liked. What I didn't like was noncompliance to my respectful request. I don't really drink alcohol nor sodas. So I requested that they replace the sodas and beer with juice instead and the mineral water for still water. They said that they would be more than happy to via iMessage. This was in the morning around 08:00, upon return was their default mini bar selection. I then in person asked again of course politely the same request around 16:00. I return around 21:00 and still nothing. Everyone is nice, as are the rooms. So, that is my only major complaint. My complements to the experience specialist Nicole Kirchbaumer, there at Le Méridien deserves recognition for making my wife and I feel most welcome there. More so than most properties I've stayed at at SPG properties world wide.

We loved everything about this hotel. The room, the service and the location are ideal. You are literally in the heart of this amazing city and the rooms are spacious & beautifully appointed. Two very important people made this visit extra special. Daniel who provided both top-notch front desk and concierge services, and David who can make one very tasty cosmopolitan for a person who tends to be a little picky about her cocktails. Thank you for a great stay!

A beautifully remodeled hotel and part of Sheraton. 2 blocks from the opera house and a 20 minute walk from the Vienna mitte train station. The rooms are gorgeously fixtured with modern design including a multi-head shower. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable. A complimentary mini bar helped recover from jet lag.

Am I in A Clockwork Orange? Is this The Rocky Horror Picture Show? No. This is my hotel. Le Meridien Vienna is a great hotel overall, about what you might expect or slightly better from a Le Meridien property, the location gives it a big boost. I'm sorry, its a nice hotel, but the lobby and the room decorations are weird. I embrace weird usually, but this was not what I was expecting at a nice hotel. I confirmed the weirdness with an American couple that was also staying there. In the lobby there are very bright lights, mannequins (that change positions throughout the day!), plastic red leather couches and very strange art all around. The rooms had mannequin hands holding apples and there were little window cases in the desks with colored peppers (yes, peppers). I thought I might be in some kind of modern art museum, but alas no, it was my hotel. Now on to the serious part of the review......The hotel is conveniently located in central Vienna close to many of the tourist spots and a big plus to being nearly on top of the subway (lines 1 2 and 4 at the Karlplatz station). Getting there: one can take a number of different routes to the hotel, the obvious being a taxi (approximately €45-50), the bargain basement (but clearly not the quickest) is the subway which comes into the basement of the Airport and for a bargain basement price of €2.20 you can buy a ticket and take the S7 train to town, connect to any one of the lines that will take you to Karlplatz. The alternative in between these two extremes is the "higher speed" (about 1/2 the time of the S7) CAT train (I think it is about €16 but don't quote me) that will get you to Landstrasse station and from there you can hop the subway or taxi. The minibar, is included which is a nice touch, but it isn't a "normal" minibar - you get one water, one regular coke, one coke light, one apple juice, one orange juice and one beer. Additional drinks need to be "phoned in" and will hit your bill. You cannot easily "trade" for drinks that you might want. It would be a nice option that the hotel stocks the minibar like a normal one and you can have say, 6 drinks out if for free -- of course, this defeats the labor saving current system where nobody needs to check it and there aren't billing issues when you leave. It does get restocked every day that you are there so it is a daily service, not just once for your entire stay. Since it is essentially baked into your room rate, I would recommend that you take advantage of it. The breakfast is much better than average at a (much?) higher price than average. If it isn't in your room rate, it will set you back a "mere" €32 (or about $41 USD at current exchange rates), making it one of the more expensive breakfasts that you will find in a hotel. It is a comprehensive selection of foods and on average, of higher quality - but at this pricing it should be! I had an upgraded room and it had one of the nicer bathrooms I've been in, despite the other weirdness. No problems sleeping even though my window was facing the street. Free Wifi.

One of the absolutely best hotel stays ever! Great staff all around - from the bar, to the cafe, reception, room service, bell desk and concierge!!! Great rooms, good food, good drinks, amazing service, awesome location!!

Seeing this was a Starwood, we had our expectations relatively high. Things got off to a horrific start however and never quite recovered. Check-in was fine until we got up to the room. It was occupied. They had given us functioning keys to someone else's room. As we fled the room we got into the secondary elevator bank. Upon the doors closing, the lights turned out and we didn't move. In total darkness we finally managed to get the doors back open. Now unnerved at the security and safety of things at Le Meridian, with nothing but a brief apology they proceeded to assign us room 553 instead of 533. They do offer a modest minibar in your room for free (1 each of beer, coke, diet coke, orange juice, apple juice) There is a pool, hot tub, and steam room, although all are rather small. Room locations can also be confusing. Parts of the floorplan can split into two levels. Signs are not clear which level certain rooms are on (see the photo) Location is quite good, staff were ok.

Le Meridien Vienna is one of the best Le Meridien hotels I have ever visited. The location is very central - you will be a few minutes away from public transportation, museums and restaurants. The hotel itself is in good shape. The rooms although standard Le Meridien rooms are pretty new and you can't hear noises from your neighbors. The free mini bar is always restocked everyday - but make sure you set your expectation low since the mini bar comprises of orange juice, apple juice, beer and water. There's no club room which is rather disappointing if I have to pinpoint one weakness of this hotel. All and all, I will stay at Le Meridien Vienna again [because demel and cafe Sacher are within walking distance actually].

Great location (close to all the major tourist destination / near a lot of great eating and drinking options). Very good breakfast in the morning. Helpful staff. Modern / clean feel. Free minibar that they restock every day. Concierge was very helpful in arranging babysitter, dinner reservations, concert tickets.

Beautiful hotel and great service. Very conveniently located and central to all the sites and tons of great restaurants. Free wifi throughout the hotel and complimentary refreshment bar in the room is refilled daily. Had a small snafu with getting our luggage but overall a great stay here!

My fiance and I stayed at Le Meridien for two nights to explore Vienna, Austria. The staff were friendly, helpful and overall service was impeccable. We stayed on the Starwood Preferred Guest level on the 3rd floor, I believe. We were provided with complimentary water, coca cola, apple spritzer, and Haribo gummy bears when we entered the room. I had a fantastic experience staying at the Le Meridien and I hope to go back again. My favorite part about this place is hands down the all you can eat breakfast. There were welcome "eye opener" shots or energizing mix juices that woke us up. I posted pictures to give you a glimpse to my ultimate breakfast. Trust me, you will need to eat this amount to have energy to walk and explore Vienna.

The location is excellent, on the ring road encircling the old historic district. It is a few blocks from the major museums and nearly across the street from the State Opera House. The room was spacious and clean and they even put a few drinks in the fridge free of charge. There were a few things that left a bad taste. First was the breakfast, which we thought came with the (definitely not cheap) price of the room. We were corrected and told that the breakfast buffet was 32 Euros a day! For each of us! That is a very, very expensive breakfast. Thinking they may be serving gold encrusted toast or eggs imported from an organic farm in Scotland or something, but no... it was a fairly normal looking breakfast buffet. We decided not to partake and went out for breakfast, each excellent, at less than half the price. The other negative was the general feel of the staff's attitude. It was dismissive, to put it politely. Rarely greeted with a smile and never asked if we needed any help, the friendliest person encountered was the guy handing out towels in the spa.

If I could give Le Meridien 6 or even 10 stars, I would. We had a fantastic stay at this hotel for our honeymoon in Austria last November. From the moment that the front staff took our bags to our check out, the Le Meridien staff went out of their way to make sure that we had a comfortable stay. A special shout out to the young man who checked us in at the front desk who was incredibly polite and friendly to American guests. In other European cities (cough cough Paris), I've noticed that hotel service staff can be incredibly rude to Americans but we did not experience this at all in Vienna and at Le Meridien. If you are polite and friendly, the Austrians will do the same. Our room was a deluxe Queen with lots of built closet space. The lighting was modern and sleek with a cool cathedral glass bed headboard with low lighting. The hotel room was spacious with good sound insulation. Our bathroom was HUGE with a full-size tub and stand up shower (no door though). A complimentary mini-bar was stocked each day with a couple of beers and soda which we loved. We also had enough room to store beer and wine that we picked up at the nearby grocery stores which we took advantage of pretty quickly. I also loved the tea caddy that pulled out of one of the shelves with the berry herbal tea. There are also multiple outlets throughout the hotel room which helps in a pinch. If you plan to do any traveling around the city and beyond, this hotel is well-serviced to the Karlsplatz U-Bahn station just a block away as well as the Ringstrasse streetcars and bus system. The Staatstoper (State Opera House) is also only a block away from the hotel as well as the Hofberg, Spanish Riding School, and St. Stephen's Cathedral within short walking distance. You really cannot go wrong on the location.

The perfect hotel for business or pleasure. Most helpful staff, great breakfast and very nice, clean rooms. Get yourself an SPG membership, to enjoy the extras on an SPG floor. It's really worth it.

Nice hotel. Great gym. Cool Moet bar. Modern interior. My suite was large and spacious. Wi-Fi was easy to access. Wonderful air-conditioning, especially when it's 100 degrees outside. The climate of the entire hotel is fantastic. The best part about the hotel is definintely the staff. Incredibly courteous. They were not only polite when they took my room service order, they even called back to find out if I was happy with it. When I arrived a little early for check-in and my room wasn't yet ready, there was no hesitation in inviting me to enjoy something to eat while my room was made-up. The only downside is that there is quite a bit of noise when the A/C is cranking, but I found the hum more lulling than annoying. Highly recommended!

I am sorry to go against the majority of positive comments for this hotel. I was a bit disappointed. Here's what I didn't like: 1) you book a "Superior Room" for 175 euros per night and you get a tiny double bed where there's now way two people could comfortably sleep together, well, unless they are on a honeymoon and still can't get enough of each other. I have never seen such a small double bed in this hotel category. And in fact, not even in hotels where you pay much less. The web site calls them "verführerische Queen Size Designer-Betten", but they are not verführisch at all. We moved to a "Deluxe Room" which was pretty much the same but at least it had a larger bed. We had to pay for the upgrade (50 euros) of course, but I was happy to do so. 2) I am not sure how long this place has been running, but it requires some refurbishing. This applies to common spaces but also to the rooms, which are, for me, also a bit tastelessly decorated. The "power shower" was a mess, since it was so "powerful" that it flooded the bathroom every time it was used. There were funny noises of undetectable origin both inside the room and outside. The outside doors are so thin you will hear everything happening in the hall. 3) Overall the impression I had walking down the hotel's halls, was of untidiness and disorganisation. The place was pretty messy. We always had the room service trolley positioned next to our door, day and night. It was simply stationed there (seep photo tip). 4) we had ONE tiny bottle of shampoo and ONE tiny bottle of shower gel to share between two. 5) the pool is tiny and the whole wellness area is so brightly lit that you feel you're being questioned by the police at a police station. No way to relax. 6) the dark lifts: scary! :-)) 7) there seems to be some lack of coordination at the staff level. I had explicitly requested a late check out on Sunday because we wanted to rest, but at 9:00 in the morning (on Sunday) someone started to insistently ring the (loud) doorbell. I am not sure what they wanted from us. I did not bother to go to the door and the reception could not tell me the reason why we were disturbed so early. Rather I was asked to put a do not disturb sign on the door if I don't want to be disturbed by room service. Which I think it's implicit at 9:00AM on a Sunday. If you ask me, if you are NOT in Vienna for business (this is the category of guests the hotels focuses on) and you want get a room in the 200+ euros per night range at a nice hotel, do not go to Le Meridien, There's definitely better places in town.

Stayed here September 2012 Arrived at the Meridien pretty quickly coming from the bus terminal in Vienna. We hopped on the subway and got off at Karlspatz; it's about 15 steps in the direction of traffic from the Karlspatz subway stop. Modern Elegance is how I would sum it up. The front desk staff was pleasant, inviting and enthusiastic. I'm a platinum and was upgraded to an Executive Suite which was amazing. Vaulted ceilings, lots of light and free mini bar (limited to beer, sparkling water and soda juice, but still cool) and of course, lots of space! The hotel room, although modern, is still very charming and warm. Might just be Vienna as well! It's across the street from the Vienna state opera and has just seemed like a great location, centrally located to many sites (Hofburg etc.) I used the pool and gym, very clean and small to medium sized. The pool is a very small lap pool but sufficient to get the job done. I highly recommend this hotel for your stay if you do want some of the old world charm that the others hotel might bring. They rent Bikes and Vespas for a charge.

I stay in Marriotts always and usually have great service. This hotel is one to avoid they send you down hallways that you have to navigate through painters, ladders and buckets of paint. Then don't even care when you let them know responding we have to paint! Then close that area!! Then they have parties and have no front desk service. I made a reservation for breakfast which was required for 25E and of course that had no record of it and told me I would have to pay 32E. I left and ate breakfast at the hotel next door!! I notified corporate with no response I will be changing hotel chains and turning in my Marriott card!!! One bad apple can spoil the whole bunch!!

The hotel was centrally located to most attractions (Hofburg Palace, St Stephan's Cathedral, Opera House, museums, Naschmarkt) and restaurants (Figlmuller and Plachutta Wollzeile). Rooms are ultra modern with a frosted glass bathroom wall and floor to ceiling shower with 3 powerful jets. We also had a fully comped minibar for being Starwood members. My only complaint was the unexplained nocturnal scratching (room #434) which seemed to go from the window to the ceiling to the light fixtures.

Le Meridien is a very good hotel! Well situated next to an opera house and Kärtner straße, with nice lobby and good restaurants. People working there were very friendly and professional, which made this stay even more enjoyable. The biggest advantage of Le Meridien are rooms. I got a deluxe one on the 5th floor, which was very spacey and well arranged. Huge bed facing windows and inclusive small mini bar. Built in shower with vertical and horizontal water streams. On top of that internet has been included in the rate! So all in all very much recommended, I will happily be back :)

Terrific hotel - Excellent room/bathroom, great complimentary drinks, terrific service, good room service. I would've rated it 5 stars, but there were some complications with my room that shouldn't have happened.

Possibly the newest business chain hotel in Vienna, the Le Meridien is smart, chic, sophisticated and arty - yet costs no more than any other business hotel. Large rooms with flat-panel TVs, complimentary beers (yes, really ! At least on the few occasions when I stayed there) really good room-service food, a lovely sauna /steam room. My top business hotel in Vienna - and I've stayed in most over the years - it feels more like a boutique hotel than a chain.

Stayed here for two nights. Hotel is centrally located in a good spot. Close to museums, cultural activities and lots of good restaurants & cafes. My room was large and modern. Very comfortable and clean. I paid extra per night so it included breakfast buffet. The food was ok and the service overall good. The cleaning staff seemed a bit unorganized and not consistent; didn't clean the rooms on time. One of the bathrooms (had 2 rooms) didn't have soap upon checking in. The towels are not high quality and had to ask for extra towels everyday as they only left one bath towel in the bathroom. My room was nonsmoking but could smell someone had smoked in it previously.

We were very pleased with our recent stay at Le Meridien, Vienna. I should mention that as spg platinum we were upgraded to a spacious suite with a view. However, that doesn't always happen, so we were very appreciative. The staff was very helpful, and the atmosphere made it a good place to come back to after a day of sightseeing. One of the best things about the hotel is the ideal location -- just a few steps in any direction to the old city (St. Stephen's Cathedral, the Hofburg etc.,) the Museums Quarter, the Naschmarkt, etc. Would definitely stay there again!

This hotel reminds me of a friend you really love hanging out with, but their little quirks sometimes get on your nerves. Check-in was breeze and we were shown to our room quickly. Loved the space and it worked very well for us and our kids. We received a lovely welcome plate with sweets. The AC wasn't working well, so sleep was rather elusive (little quirk). I loved the location, the staff were very helpful to us...I don't know what other people are expecting when I read their reviews. Friendly door staff and front desk was very helpful and attentive. The location is darn near perfect for sightseeing and the breakfast was good. There are so many wonderful bakeries nearby that if you want to skip the hotel fare...there are plenty of choices outside the hotel. We ate in and everyone was pleased. I do wish they had more vegan friendly items. The veggies were slathered in butter...very tasty, but not vegan. I would stay here again. One suggestion...have some movies available to rent.

Great hotel, awesome location, air-condition which is rare in Vienna and super friendly staff. Restaurant is also very good. Above average pricing but worth it.

This was our third hotel that we had stayed on during our honeymoon through Austria. We took the train from Salzburg to Vienna and were really hoping that this place delivered especially considering all of the rave reviews. Well, first - Le Meridien did deliver especially on 1) service and 2) honoring my suite night awards. I was hoping for an amazing room in both modern features and space seeing as we had all of our snowboarding gear. When we arrived they were QUICK to help us with our snowboarding gear as that's much appreciated. It took a moment as we must've come during a busy time where everyone was checking in and out and I was just looking around at all of the artsy things they had on the walls. If it had been a little darker, more glitter, and louder music - I may have mistaken this for my favorite chain - the W. Anyways, we were told that we got a great room and that we would love it. They were right and we did. Our suite was bigger than most people's apartments in NYC. To say we had plenty of space to put our items is an understatement. It was a corner suite and we walked into the living room, dining room table to seat four, a separate bathroom off of the living/dining room, BIG bedroom of US standards, separate shower and bathtub. At that point I didn't care that there were trees blocking the window looking to the Opering. Needless to say our room was very spacious. The bed was very comfortable and more importantly there were PLENTY of OUTLETS!!! The biggest pet peeve of mine is having a lack of outlets in this day and age and thankfully my husband and I weren't fighting for an outlet! We ordered room service for breakfast the next day and everything was as ordered. I like when people pay attention to me and put light oil on my omelet. It makes my day that much better. The location of this hotel allows you to walk pretty much anywhere in the Inner Stadt. We had a tour and we weren't rushing to make sure we caught the train. Karlsplatz (u-bahn) is really close. When you exit the hotel and cross the little service road. Keep going straight and you'll be right at Karlsplatz in 3 minutes. From there you can go anywhere. If that's not your thing you could walk 8 minutes to the Albertina, or walk a bit further to the shops, maria hilferstrasse anyone? Everything is right outside of your window. It felt good to have Le Meridien as part of our honeymoon. You can't go wrong staying at this hotel for business or pleasure. When we go back to Vienna again - there's no question where we'll be staying.

Modern style hotel with a great location. Big rooms with a huge bathroom. Very quiet and clean. Friendly and helpful staff. Very nice spread for breakfast. Also had a limited but free mini bar which went a really long way. Would definitely stay here again.

Superb hotel with all the best features and services. Upgraded to suite when front desk noticed that it was my wife's birthday.

ive always stayed here when visiting vienna, as the property is more current and up to date in terms of amenity than the hotel brostol and the hotel imperial. it's located in District one where the metro lines are accessible. this is also one stop away from the vienna central station so it's easy to catch your morning train going out of Vienna. behind the property is the night market. about a 15 min walk. and then maria hilfer is adjacent to the street where shops line up from electronics, pharmacy and your standard apparel stores. there's even a sit in nespresso cafe, so skip the Starbucks and go here instead. across the opera is about 3 min walk to stephansplatz, where you can catch an original version film. these aren't subtitled but in English and the theatre is ran by artis international with reserved seating. there's also a couple of food places around the opering and a grocery across the karlsplatz station next to dm pharmacy. the rooms are well equipped and infotainment is easy to use with Bluetooth streaming on their TV. windows can be opened for ventilation and double paned so you won't have a hard time sleeping with traffic outside. they also come with blackout mechanical blinds if you feel like sleeping in the middle of the day. overall the rooms felt comfortable and everything seems to be well though out without being too complicated.

We stayed here last week. One of the best hotel experiences I had abroad. Amazingly helpful staff, great room- we stayed at the executive room which was huge, the bathroom was off the hook. The breakfast was good as well. Overall, a great hotel. Check out the champagne bar as well.

The location of this hotel is A+ and cannot be beat. I had a few issues with the staff at this hotel and our room wasn't cleaned on one occasion. Upon check in, the front desk didn't offer me an upgrade (as they should have bc I'm a SPG gold member). I found a dirty cleaning rag in my bed when I did get into my room. When the room was cleaned, it was done poorly (wouldn't you think that they should have common sense to clean away dirty plates and glasses). In addition, the dinner we had at the restaurant was pretty unappetizing. I stayed here simply because of the fact that I am a SPG member, but had I paid a lot of money to stay here I would be even more disappointed. Overall I was underwhelmed, this is the Meridien after all!

Doesn't look all that from the outside but has some funky touches on the inside. I got a good deal on Hotwire.com. Not sure it's 5 star quality.

Very nice hotel and fantastic location. Everything was in walking distance. I must also leave a very positive comment for the staff: they were always incredibly helpful and friendly.
