"You’d think you couldn’t beat the view – it overlooks the Gothic spires of Stephansdom – yet its interior almost tops its location." Full review
Rough Guide
"Newly refurbished rooms are modern, comfortable and spacious, and it’s just about as central as you can get without actually being inside the Stephansdom. Doubles from €180."
