Hotel is in a great location, less than 100 meters from UBahn stop, lots of restaurants near by, city center is only a few stops away or you can walk to it in 30 minutes or less. I slept very well. Bed was comfortable and it was perfectly quiet in the room. Breakfast was nice, there are options for yoghurt, cold cuts, eggs/bacon/sausage, fruit, vegetables, bread, sweets. Staff is friendly and helpful. Overall excellent hotel and if possible I will try to stay at Johan Strauss next time I am in Vienna.

OK for a night or two when traveling for business. Nothing to complain about, but there’s other 4 star hotels that offer way more. Standard breakfast buffet, no restaurant, small bar and lobby. No gym and comparably small rooms. Clean and tidy, staff always friendly. A bit noisy - but that’s the price you pay for the convenient location.

Clean, wonderful breakfast. Super nice staff. They packed a breakfast when I had 7 am busses to catch. Not one complaint.

The room is clean and the staff are friendly. Food is nice too. The only thing is i would prefer to stay on higher floors than the first floor as the view is a blocked. When i off the aircon as it is too cold, didnt realise that i didnt have oxygen and was suffering from a bad headache the whole of the following day.

I spent week here in November. The hotel was charming with modern ammeties and some old-time touches. I loved the big brass room key! I hit a really cold spell and appreciated that my spacious room was warm. The bed was cozy and comfortable. Breakfast had a good variety. Location is great - within walking distance of most places I wanted to go, but with a subway stop on the block. The staff were friendly and accomodating.

My wwife and I had a wonderful stay at this hotel in December. We stayed for 6 nights and loved the location, the room, the breakfast, and the front desk service. The room was the largest and most comfortable we had in our 2 week trip through Germany and Austria. Lots of space to move around and a very nice washroom. The cappuccino the gentleman at the front desk made for us was one of the best I've ever had. I tried to replicate it with the coffee machine in the breakfast room but it wasn't the same. Breakfast was amazing. The hot food was mostly the same every day with some small variations, but the cold cheese, meat, and smoked salmon (and other treats) in the cold section changed often and it was always a delight to see what was available. The selection of pastries, crepes and breads was something else. So much to chose from. Sachertorte for breakfast? Why not? The hotel was situated right next to a very convenient subway stop and not far from tram stops, restaurants, shopping, and Karlskirche. Overall a delightful stay. Thank you.

Got a room for three people, and it worked out beautifully. Great size - it was not crowded at all - with a lovely bed + a sofa that turned into a bed. The hotel is centrally located and within easy walking distance of lots of Christmas markets, which was the main object of this trip. Breakfast was good, staff was friendly, accommodating, and approachable, they kept our luggage before check-in and after check-out, and got us a car to the airport. I would not hesitate to stay here again on another trip.

This hotel was perfect for our 3 day city trip to Vienna. The hotel was conveniently located next to the U-bahn. The bigger Karlsplatz U-bahn station with more connections, including to Schönbrunn, was in 10 to 15 minutes walking distance. The Vienna Hauptbahnhof was within 20 minute walking distance or 1 stop removed by U-bahn. The hotel staff spoke both German and English. Our room and bathroom were both very clean. The rooms were well isolated, I didn't hear any noise from outside or from other guests, and slept very well. But note that our room was on the top floor at the end of the corridor, and didn't face the street side. 2 Pillows were provided per person so you could choose your preferred pillow height. Minibar was available for additional payment. The bathroom has a two-combined-in-one shampoo & body wash in a big dispenser, hand wash & lotion in big dispenser, and hair conditioner in a small bottle available. There also was a hair dryer, two glasses and a sewing kit. The only very minor downside of the room was that the water temperature in the bath/shower was hard to regulate and not very consistent. The hotel offers breakfast, but plenty of breakfast options are available outside too.

Where can I eat near Hotel Johann Strauss?

The hotel itself has a restaurant, bar, and lobby bar. The Vienna Naschmarkt is a nearby food market where you can find countless stalls with fresh produce, street food, and small eateries. For a proper sit-down meal, the hotel's own restaurant serves traditional Viennese cuisine. Several of the hotel group's other restaurants, like Ristorante Firenze Enoteca and Trattoria Santo Stefano, are located in the city center, a short walk or quick metro ride away. Denn's Biomarkt Store is also close by if you want to pick up snacks or a picnic.

The Vienna Naschmarkt is nearby for a stroll or a bite, and a Spar supermarket is a short walk away for everyday needs. The neighborhood is calm and residential, yet the U1 line puts the city center and main train station within easy reach. It's a convenient, walkable spot for sightseeing and daily errands alike.

How do I get to Hotel Johann Strauss from the airport or main train station?

From Vienna Airport, take the S7 train to Wien Mitte, then switch to the U1 subway and get off at Taubstummengasse; take the Floragasse exit and the hotel is directly ahead on the left. From the main train station, take the U1 toward Leopoldau, get off at Taubstummengasse, use the Floragasse exit, and the hotel is right there. The hotel is also a one-minute walk from Taubstummengasse subway station. A private transfer can be arranged from the airport, and taxis are available at both the airport and the main station.

The Vienna State Opera is a 12-minute walk away, a classic spot for an evening performance. If you're up for more, Belvedere Palace is within a 12-minute walk, and the historic center, including St. Stephen's Cathedral, is a pleasant 19-minute walk from the hotel. The hotel's lobby bar is another convenient option for a nightcap.

Is Hotel Johann Strauss a good base for exploring Vienna?

Yes, Hotel Johann Strauss is an excellent base for exploring Vienna.
