No checking in until 3pm but luggage can be stored,receptionist was initially friendly but very short on local info...|Having gone to a small christmas market about 20 mins walk from hotel, we arrived back at 4pm to go to our room. We found out we had been allocated a comfy retro room, which suited us perfectly apart from not having any view apart from the back carpark! Being a " dark" room with only 1 smallish window I did ask myself why the decor wasn't a bit brighter?. The hallways are also very dark....anyway, our room did have a kettle ( only 1 tea bag each with sugar) and a safe ( contrary to what other reviews I'd read.) I had bought drink sachets with me along with my travel kettle so we can have a drink whenever wanted. The bed was super comfy and our bathroom had a bath and shower.showergel,hand soap and shampoo were in the bathroom too. We had heating on demand ( hot air not under floor - as I'd also read)|Hotel itself had a great breakfast choice, cereal, toast, eggs, bacon, salmon , salad choice, croissants, bread, cakes, jams, honey, chocolate spread..and any drink possible from 2 machines ! Plenty for us to choose.|Hotel is about 30-45 mins walk from all the main attractions, opera house, bigger and better Christmas markets, horse and carriage rides...too many buildings to name.but we did find the hop on hop off bus great to get our bearings, and make the most of all the sights. |The hotel decor itself is a bit different to what we had seen and experienced before on our travels, not very bright and welcoming but a bit dark and commercial feeling. |But that said we were only there for 3 nights which was more than enough for us to see all the great sights on offer around and in vienna.
