The rooms are very nicely decorated. Location is great. I was pretty quiet and the bed was ok. One huge problem with this property. When the temperature falls below 56F at night the ventilation will only blow hot air. So you have to sleep with the windows open. But there is no thermastatic control on the windows. My first night I woke up in the middle of the night a puddle of sweat. My second night I woke up in the middle of the night freezing. I stayed here for a week, by then end of the week, trial and error I got it about right, then it was time to leave. But forget about sleeping in, if you want the air to circulate, you have to leave the blackout curtains open so enjoy getting up with the dawn.

Good location and very helpful and attentive staff. We didn’t like our 4th floor room with a sloping roof and they moved us to a better room. Rooms were a bit too warm for us and Airconditioning would not turn on.

Service was poor. They “cleaned” our room and didn’t leave us any towels but left a dirty coffee cup for our morning coffee the next day. Wouldn’t stay here again.

Lousy bathroom, lousy shower everywhere a bit scruffy. Breakfast overpriced chaotic mess. Rude lousy barman. In fairness they refunded breakfast and drinks, but still had to find alternative breakfasts. Whole place needs a makeover. Internet was good.

The property was clean and maintained well. However the staff were not friendly or nice. Few were rude and walking by us without even greeting. Some were arguing right at the front desk with each other. I did not like this. The hotel did not give us any grace time (we wanted couple of hours) to do the checkout and because of that we had to check out pretty early at 8 AM before we left to see the attractions.

DEFINITELY A MUST STAY HOTEL! Larissa!!! From the moment we arrived at the reception, tired & jet-lagged, she welcomed us & made us feel right at home at this beautiful hotel. After we left our bags in our WONDERFUL room (fabulous air conditioning), Larissa showed us where to get a FANTASTIC lunch. She gave us an overview of Vienna which we followed the whole time we were there (almost one week). Every time we saw her in the hotel, she remembered us & helped with any questions. Larissa is outstanding in every way & made our stay here the best from the moment we arrived. The entire staff in the kitchen (breakfast) & reception/bar was friendly and helpful. The daily breakfast at the Josefhofs was outstanding; incredible variety & new items each day so that we still ate our favorite things but got to try new things as well. Gorgeous interior courtyard to eat our breakfast, or inside seating area if preferred. Very cool bar/eatery inside the hotel from noon (when breakfast ends) until the wee hours of the morning. Very quiet for agreat nights sleep every night. Great bed & bathroom/shower. Free drinks at the bar downstairs (1 per person) for every day you choose not to have the room cleaned. Great location; 5 minute walk to the metro (easy metro system), less than 5 minute walk to city area, 15-20 minute walk to the cathedral with city streets, shops, cafes, restaurants all along the way (all is so close by including a great grocery store). We WILL stay here next time!
