Hotel Royal

Fordele: Excellent location right in the center of Vienna. Substantial complimentary breakfast. Helpful staff. Rooms fairly spacious.

Ulemper: Shower tub small. Beds small.

Excellent location, spacious rooms, central yet quiet

Fordele: Just off pedestrian only area. Multitude of restaurants, cafes & shops, including grocery & apothecary. Walking distance to most tourist attractions. Steps from Underground. Despite being in a busy area and close by churches with bells regularly, we heard nothing while in our room. For the most part, the staff was very nice and helpful. Hotel even provides a "lunch box" (sandwich, fruit & water) if leaving prior to breakfast.

Ulemper: Restaurants are expensive, and menus were not that appealing to us. We did hope to have an after dinner drink or dessert at the rooftop terrace one. The night we tried to do so, half the restaurant and the bar were closed for a private party. Disappointing. There is no coffee available prior to 7 a.m., nor were we able to find anywhere near by where we could get some prior to an early departure for a tour. Seems the best option is to get a coffee drink from the refrigerated section of the grocery across the street ahead of time.
