Arthotel ANA Katharina

We visited Vienna for a birthday treat for my husband. The Arthotel Ana Katharina was ideal. The rooms were warm and comfortable with amenities such as a good hairdryer, hair and body wash and hand wash in the bathroom. We had a comfortable king size bed and although the pillows were a little unusual they were still comfy. The reception staff were polite, helpful and spoke good English. There is a safe for your passport and other valuablesin a room off the reception area but not all staff knew it was there so do ask if you need this. They will put your things into the safe and give you a numbered key for when you want anything out. The breakfast was very good, with scrambled and boiled eggs and bacon and a great variety of cold items such as meats, cheese, salads along with fruit, cereals, breads, cake and croissants. They even have warm waffles. There is a coffe machine in the dining area which is available free of charge until 10pm and has coffees and teas available. There are a couple of restaurants and bars nearby but we did not use them. There is a tram line (Tram D) just outside the hotel which takes you into Vienna city centre (get off at the opera) and takes around ten minutes so is ideal. If you walk to Frank Joseph train station ( about 10 minutes). There are shops and food kiosks, and the station where you can buy tickets for all transport around Vienna. We bought a three day ticket which was perfect for our short trip and used it every day.

Good location for tram and metro so could get into the centre of Vienna fairly quickly. Very warm bedroom. Wonderful breakfast. Nice staff.

Hotel is located a few minutes tram ride from the main city attractions and close to metro (line 4 and 6). Rooms are a bit old dated, especially the bathroom and the toilet, that need renovation. Breakfast was quite good, with a variety of choices.

Bathroom was a little run down. Room was spacious and clean. Great breakfast options. Amazing customer service.

Visit to Vienna with friends. first time for majority of us to city. Visits to imperial palaces, shopping and Christmas market experiences. Hotel was just far enough out of city to be quiet but with excellent access to tram line, just a few yards away, and underground, just a few hundred yards away. Really easy. Staff at hotel throughout were excellent, especially Noemi on reception who was pleasant and could not do enough for us! Breakfast was adequate and staff there excellent. Nice touch at this hotel I see a coffee machine just off of the reception where you can help yourself to coffee hot chocolate etc free of additional charge all day until 10pm. Rooms and bed were very comfortable. Bathrooms were a little dated but again acceptable. Will definitely return as long a star the price is right.
