Beyond the call of duty
Breakfast was great! The front desk staff were awesome as at a time when we were there the rain and wind was intense and causing many flooding problems. We couldn’t get a train or bus to our next destination of Salzburg and the hotel did there utmost best to accommodate and help us.

This hotel has been the best!
The staff have gone out of their way to help us. Unfortunately, the weather wasn’t good while we were here at our train to Salzburg was canceled. They helped us explain to our hotel in Salzburg why we weren’t coming and manage to get us a room for another night. I would definitely come back here.

We loved our stay in July 2024. Christian was an excellent manager, and made us feel welcome. The hotel is conveniently located in the middle of many tourist destinations. The area next to the hotel was a little too busy for our liking, but the hotel is situated on a quiet side street. The bed was comfortable, and the breakfast was enjoyable.

Great little hotel! Super staff. Hard to find so be prepared and parking is tricky. However, they have a staff member ride with you after checkin to show you where to park. Rooms were clean, air conditioner worked great and bathrooms were also clean. We would definitely go back!

Little gem in inner city
Very friendly service, receptionist went out of his way to print train tickets. Wonderful breakfast. Rooms are rather small but very clean. Perfect location with major sights within walking distance. Great restaurant with Austrian delicatessen right next to hotel. Highly recommend.

First of all, as a solo traveler, I VERY much appreciate that the hotel offered a room with a single bed at a much lower price. A standard sized room would have been out of my budget. The room was tiny for sure but adequate for my needs. The location was perfect. Within walking distance of St. Stephen's, the Hofburg, the Mozart Haus and within a 5 minute walk to two different U-bahn stations. Lots of dining options near the hotel. However, it is on a very quiet side street -- no traffic noise at all. The hotel staff was very helpful. Would highly recommend.

I liked to stay this hotel. I felt I was in the old era. Also I liked the morning breakfast because I sat next European travelers, by the way I am Asian :) One thing I didn’t like the attached small mirror inside the bathroom. It might be moved to right side instead of left side- depends on preference-I was stayed in twin bedroom. It was fantastic and thank you for staff.

Excellent hotel BUT air conditioning was not available to regulate the room temperature. They claimed the first week of April was not the season to operate it and no control remote was provided, so the room was hot overnight with the need to open windows before going to sleep.
Otherwise excellent place, buffet breakfast very good.

Hotel Kärntnerhof is a wonderful place to stay in Vienna. The staff is so welcoming and helpful. The building is very old but well maintained and pristine. I highly recommend staying at Hotel Kärntnerhof.
