Hotel City is ideal for a short or extended stay in Villach. Courteous and friendly staff, comfortable rooms and excellent staff. A great breakfast is included in price. Location couldn’t be better-across square from railway station, beside bus terminal and convenient to centre of town which is only a few minutes stroll. Highly recommended

A nice comfortable and relaxing stay in Villach.

Hotel was ideally situated for both the train and bus station. The hotel common area and room were in good condition. All of the staff I encountered were friendly and helpful. The allocated room was a good size, comfortable and clean. Although the room had a kettle I would have liked to have seen a bottle of complementary water. The breakfast provided was very nice with hot and cold options available. Thank you for a comfortable and relaxing stay

It was very hot the days we were there. We had only one small window, looking out at a black flat roof radiating heat, and no AC.

There were no amenities. So, we went to the store and bought conditioner, as there was
liquid soap in the shower.

The second day, my husband mentioned to the desk that the room was very hot.
She said we could have air-conditioning for another 9 euros a day. In a hotel where the rate was very high, that was really unbelievable .

On the third day, I read the hotel booklet, and it said, if you need amenities, you can ask the hotel desk, and they will give you some. At these hotel rates, we thought the price for
electricity, and trying to avoid amenities was out of character.

The only high point was a fabulous breakfast, possibly the best we have ever had.

Hotel City, Villach!

Loved this hotel! Perfect location, right across from the train station. Multiple cafes, a market, and restaurants within the block where the hotel is located. It is an easy walk into the village, which is BEAUTIFUL, and to the running/biking trails next to the Drava River. The hotel was clean, efficient (use of space), the air con worked GREAT (a must for us), and the breakfast was delicious and substantial. The beds were super comfortable. The staff was amazing - so helpful and cheerful and GENUINE. We initially viewed this trip as merely a \"stopover\" with little expectations, but now want to return because the hotel was just perfectly situated and we became enchanted with the town itself.

A very comfortable and convenient city hotel

I stayed in Hotel City for a week in early February. Different people look for different things in a hotel. My three measures would be comfort (not luxury), friendly staff and (in town) location. Hotel City measured up very well, actually beyond my expectations when I first booked.
I had a single room which was perfectly good and which, in a compact space, provided not only the basics but also a sofa (which was great to watch the high definition TV). The room faced into the busy square around the railway station. My first thought was that it might be noisy. No. My stay was remarkably quiet, night and morning. I was very impressed by the extensive breakfast, included in the room price. There was an excellent choice and the atmosphere was relaxed. First class.
The staff was also first class. The front desk was welcoming and helpful. The breakfast staff equally so. The cleaning staff too. It may have been because I was staying longer than most but I began to feel like I was one of the hotel 'family'. Not a perfect analogy but I did develop a sense of the hotel as 'home'.
Location is great. I had had a very long and complicated journey and it was a relief to exit the railway station, look across the road and think 'finally, I've made it'. Most of what Villach has to offer is within a short walk. Bus and rail for exploring further is right beside you.
In short, Hotel City ticked all the boxes.

\"Too small/ no air\"

I knew I had reserved twin beds, but didn't realize how small the room would be. Reminded my of my dorm room in college. Also, they didn't have air conditioning, which is not unusual in Austria. The problem is the hotel is right next to very busy bus stop. So, when we opened the window, the noise made it hard to sleep. On the plus side, the breakfast was very good.

Acceptable business oriented hotel in city center

Architecturally uninspiring, this 1960s era hotel is acceptable value: It is well located (across from main train station), there's free parking in front of the hotel, Rooms facing away from the square are quieter and have fewer bright lights shining in the windows.
Architecture is uninspiring, room furniture is functional but hardly stylish. WiFi worked well.
Breakfast is a generous buffet, and includes hot and cold dishes, lots of breads, good choices of fruit, and is served early. Austrian (German-language) newspapers are available free.

Connecting Trains

We needed an over night stop in Villach to connect with a morning train to Venice - we had a late arrival into Villach and left early the next morning. Hotel City Villach was ideally placed as it's right across the road from the main train station. i never expect a lot from hotels located right next to railway stations, however this hotel was neat and well presented, and the staff were very friendly. The room was quite small for two people, however the breakfast buffet was great. We were mainly looking for convenience for our train connections, and Hotel City Villach more than met our needs.

Excellent value.

This is a wonderful hotel. I just needed a place to stay overnight because I couldn't catch a train to Lienz till the next morning, so I got the economy room and loved it. Everything about this hotel is great - very friendly and helpful staff, wonderful free breakfast, immaculate rooms, and a great location. The only reason why I would have given them 4 stars is because the economy room is not air-conditioned, and that should have been made clear before booking it (nowadays I would expect all rooms to have A/C). When I asked about it, I was told that I would have to upgrade my room for it. I thought that was kind of petty. Fortunately, it was a cool night.

Nice hotel spacious rooms and good disabled access

This is the second time that I have stayed at this hotel and I would not hesitate to stay there again. As I have only used it as an overnight stop when driving through Austria, I cannot comment on all the facilities. The hotel is modern and clean and the rooms are spacious and very comfortable. The staff cannot be faulted, very courteous and very friendly. There was free parking in front of the hotel and for the disabled there is a lift from reception up to the bedrooms and restaurant. The breakfast buffet has virtually everything you could want for breakfast. The hotel is quite easy to find as it is opposite the train station but you can't hear the trains so they won't keep you awake during the night. All in all I look forward to using this hotel again next year and for many years to come.

Room was simple but very clean, desk clerks were nice. Wifi is extra, but relatively cheap- 2 euro for 30 minutes covered all I needed.

The real surprise was the continental breakfast. The BEST one we have ever had in years of staying in hotels, an astounding selection and variety of healthy choices. I'd go back there just for the breakfast.
