Frommer's

Concierge

"An Art Nouveau building dating from 1884 providing a bit more cosiness than many other five-star hotels."
Travel + Leisure

EuroCheapo
"A four-star option in the gentrified neighborhood of Leopoldstadt, the Hotel Stefanie is closer to the Schwedenplatz—just over the bridge crossing the Donau Canal—than many Innere Stadt hotels." Full review

The staff's attitude still reflects the old Leopoldstadt: ask for a restaurant recommendation in Leopoldstadt, and the concierge is likely to reply "There really isn't much of anything."
