"The Guesthouse Vienna Since opening in October 2013, the Guesthouse has filled a niche in Innere Stadt, or the first district: a classy boutique hotel that allows guests to live like a temporary and incredibly stylish resident. Architect Arkan Zeytinoglu transformed this former 1950s student hostel into an upscale hotel noted for its pop-out windows. Sir Terence Conran brought a timeless, fuss-free Viennese design to the interior for a home-away-from-home feel. All rooms have exquisitely built Wittmann sofas atop the wood floors, and rooms facing the Albertina feature Friedrich Kiesler’s cantilever chairs designed in the 1930s. The sleek bathroom includes clear glass rainforest showers and bathtubs, as well as amenities like handmade soaps from Viennese maker Wolfgang Lederhaas and other bath products by Molton Brown."

Our experience at The Guesthouse was very lovely from start to finish. Not only was the service impeccable (which made us feel warmly welcomed at the start of our trip), we managed to get an upgrade to a really lovely suite loft unit at the very top of the hotel! ||The view was really amazing. Being able to drink some wine (there are 4 complimentary bottles of wine in their wine fridge) by the windows overlooking the Albertina and State Opera House was a sublime experience! ||The hotel also has a decent ala carte breakfast which was not included as part of the room package, but for which we gladly paid for. We could even bring our wine down to drink with the breakfast. ||All in all, the Guesthouse was a lovely start to our trip and a home away from home!

I Highly recommend this hotel. The hotel deserves 5 stars just for the in room espresso maker. The complimentary wine and soft drinks were a welcome bonus. Even the smaller room was well appointed and comfortable. The location is very convenient and the staff are very helpful. Thank you for a wonderful stay..

The Guesthouse is in a great location and only a short walk to many museums, art galleries, concert venues, shops, restaurant and major tourist attractions. Our room was very spacious with large bathroom and good size sitting area. Hotel staff were helpful and provided useful suggestions and assistance as it was our first time in Vienna. The Guesthouse restaurant provides very good food options for any time of the day but also a great place to just sit and have a coffee or drink. I look forward to returning in the future.

My favourite hotel on Vienna. Beautiful design, amazing comfort, impeccably clean and such a hip restaurant! If you want to be able to take the pulse of the city just by opening the hotel room window, this is the place for you!

I rarely recommend hotels but this one deserves five stars. It's really central, about 4 minutes walk from the U2 train line and opposite the state opera so dead easy to find. Even though we were over 3 hours early we were able to check in and go to our room. "Courtyard view" from the higher floors is a bit of an optimistic description as all we could see was the building opposite us but at least we had a view of the sky! Bed was very comfy, everywhere was spotlessly clean and the coffee maker made good coffee (once we'd Googled how to work it). The really nice touches are the complimentary wines beers and soft drinks you can help yourself to and the delicious little chocolate cakes on the first day. We had one of the two bottles of white wine one night and they replenished the bottle for the following day. Our package also gave us a €30 voucher to use at the cafe/breakfast area, and we ended up having breakfast there both days. Not cheap but similar to other places and the food was very nice. Can recommend the granola and the eggs benedict. We saw some comments on TA about travellers being charged for the mini bar but they make it clear what is and isn't free. The one thing that was not so good was the way the heating / air con worked. There were instructions but we still couldn't work out how to have a decent lower temperature. But overall, an excellent hotel and would stay here again.

This hotel is amazing. We had a suite. The room was huge and very clean. Fresh flowers were a nice touch. The staff here, particularly in the restaurant, are amazing. Very helpful and great service. The food in the restaurant is top notch. Great location, too. I would definitely stay here again. Bravo!

The Guesthouse is the perfect location for an art themed mini break in Vienna, situated just opposite the lovely Albertina and all other museums in walking distance. Splash out on a fabulous deluxe room and relish the view from the window seat: the perfect spot for diary writing, reading or just watching the world go by with a glass of complementary wine in hand. The adjoining restaurant is excellent with super friendly staff. In fact, my only complaint I have with the Guesthouse is that it's so inviting that motivating yourself to go out and explore Vienna can be a challenge!

This Sir Terence Conran designed boutique hotel was a joy to return to every night for a week in Vienna. The glass enclosed window balconies, where one can read a book or just gaze out, looked out at the Albertina Museum and it was an added design that really made the room special. The restaurant had great quality food and the staff couldn’t be more helpful. I liked the walk in shower also or there was a big bathtub to have a soak in. Would return in a heartbeat!

This front desk is awesome--friendly and helpful. They do everything with a smile and go above and beyond their duties. We received 4 bottles of wine, complimentary, a day!! The room was very clean and comfortable and the location is awesome. Thanks for a perfect, 5 Star, stay!

We had breakfast here after getting tipped off by Trip Advisor. It was nice. Very nice, comfortable ambiance. It had free wifi as well. And the place was quite busy. The servers seemed a bit overwhelmed as the place probably could have used a few more waitstaff. The food was quite tasty. I got the eggs amelie and sacher sausage. They were beautifully presented and pretty good! An enjoyable meal overall.

Very nice hotel, stylish and with great location. Small rooms, breakfast a la carte. Located at the back of the opera house, it is hard to imagine more central location, tourist wise of course. The rooms are in the 70s style with every detail, from lamp to armchair. Of course this comes at a price of 200+ Euro a night or more. But it was quite a unique experience.

We had dinner at the Brasserie at the Guesthouse this past sunday, sad to say, the meal fell short of expectations in every regard. Starting off with the pumpkin soup (w/o the smoked trout crostini), the flavor was overpowering on paprika to the point that one could hardly tell that the base was pumpkin. The consistency was also too thin and unlike any pumpkin soup I've had before. For main course we ordered the pumpkin ravioli (pumpkin crazy) and the veal stew. Firstly the veal stew - not only did the taste not quite live up to expectations in any regard, there was also barely any meat to be found in the soup. My dining companion reminisced on middle school cafeteria food in scotland when having the stew.. The pumpkin ravioli was watery and overcooked, with blanched apple bits scattered all around the dish. None of the ingredients worked together creating a salty/sweet mess. The saving grace was the St. Laurant red wine, which tasted quite nice and was priced well. For a EUR100+ meal this was unacceptable as a whole. For a hotel restaurant the ambience is quite nice, unfortunately the food is near in-edible.

This place was great! The concierge were polite and extremely informative. The rooms were very clean and the bathroom in our room was large. I was shocked but they provided 4 bottles of wine in our room complimentary. Good local wine I think. There was also an espresso machine in the room. My husband and I are breakfast one morning in the cafe. The prices were average. I think is paid 8,50 for eggs Benedict and it was delicious. Also A+ for location. Mid way between st Stephens cathedral and the museum district. Easy walking to the nearest Ubahn too.

Bad coffee. This review needs to be longer. Even longer. Ever more words to say the exact same thing: bad coffee.

We had a great experience in this hotel. The staff are super polite and helpful. The room were comfy and the four complimentary wine per night and the complimentary soft drinks were just a great add on.
