(Double Room from 293 Euros)
This traditional hotel with 72 rooms has been re-designed in the 1996 by Sir Terence Conran resulting in a contemporary, stylish but at the same time inviting place. I really like the location – even though it is only 5 minutes walk from the First Disctrict with all the monuments and sights, sleek bars and fancy shops, it is in the middle of ‘real’ Vienna, with neighbourhood bars and restaurants and odd little shops.
The rooms:
The rooms are generous and nicely designed. I hated the shower though, if you try not to get your hair wet, you end up having to balance the hand-held shower head with one hand while trying to soap your body with the other, flooding the bathroom at the same time.
Room Rates: 
Doubles from 293.00 Euros a night which includes breakfast.
Food and Drinks:
The breakfast buffet has everything an Austrian would want. Fresh semmel (Austrian rolls), a choice of home-made jams, a selection of tasty hams and cheeses as well as Apfelstrudel. My American companions enjoyed the freshly cooked eggs. I was not so keen on the buffet closing at 10:00 am sharp, and their selection of English language news papers was poor.
