The hotel was okay for what we needed. All staff with the exception of one were excellent. The younger guy on the desk on arrival perhaps could have been a bit more welcoming and given a bit more information about our stay.
Would have been really nice to have a kettle in the room or access to the coffee machine available throughout the day. At times it was so cold and wanted to just come back to the room and relax but a hot drink would be nice.
The rooms were generally clean.
Location was good for the Christmas market and not too far from the airport.
Lots of coffee shops, noodle bars, kebabs and pharmacies but choices of restaurants were limited..

Reception staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast was okay but the bread wasn’t always fresh. The room attendant didn’t always provide clean towels but hung the used ones back up if they weren’t dirty. The room attendant didn’t always provide new toilet rolls even when there were none left. The safe didn’t have instructions in English and after making the reception aware, nothing happened. I found it difficult to get to sleep as the trams ran right outside my bedroom window. I was woken up earlier than I would have liked because of this. The WI-FI was poor and I ended up using my data as a work-around.

Although not in the centre of Vienna, the hotel is within easy walking distance of the Hofburg and other sites. The restaurants around the hotel are a little cheaper also because they aren’t on the tourist radar. The staff were very accommodating and pleasant to talk to.
The hotel itself is very nice, the dining area in particular is well decorated. The breakfast was good, with muesli, fruit, hams and cheeses on offer as well as cooked eggs.
My room was modern and clean, the bathroom had a slightly odd layout and the shower was a little grotty (not dirty but just typical discolouration in older showers).
I really enjoyed my stay and would visit again if in Vienna.

Room 7

We had room 7, which is on the roadside so you can hear the trams. A little loud, but bearable. Main issue was the bathroom fan would come on with the light switch and would squeak rather high pitched for 3-5 minutes afterwards, even after turning the light off.

Decent for price

Best part of this hotel are the employees, very friendly and helpful. The hotel is actually on a second floor of an apartment building, which is kind of odd. The rooms were tight but OK. Our room had a lot of spider webs and towels were ripped and old. Also, the TV had no channels so it was a bit boring at night. However, the location is decent - 20min walk to center and there are few shops and fast food restaurants near the property. Overall, the rooms are OK for the price.

The Hotel was ok and close to city center. I was thinking it would be a positive experience - until checkout - the person was saying i had 2 kids and should pay up for the breakfast. Thankfully i had the printout and showed them - i booked with 2 kids and Breakfast Included - in the email. Finally the guy agreed.

Anyways - be careful when you book

Nice little hotel near centre

We have decided to go to Wienna on advent weekend and we wanted to be situated near center so we could walk arround, but also looked for not-to-expensive place to stay. In pension excellence we got everything we looked for - affordable accomodation near centre with breakfast included.
Employees are all very kind, not much of them but they tend to do everything and are pretty well organized. Hotel has free wifi which works well, rooms are solid in size, with soft an comfortable bed and solid bathroom with shower. Rooms were cleared every day and towels changed. Room also has minibar in which we had two bottles of water and used it to cold our drinks. There is also a safe with key which is quite usefull (everything free of charge), and breakfast was included in price.
Only downsize was small dining room with relatively small serving place (although, it is a small hotel, so it is quite understandable), which was a bit too crowded during breakfast on our last day when there was a bit more guests - since plates with food and place for serving are relatively small, there was a time now and then in which you did not have everything avilable, but staff was bringing new plates rather quickly.

A convenient stay in Vienna

Excellent location with easy access to the 43 and 44 Vienna tram and connecting U-Bahn lines. Easy walk to the center of the city. Many reasonably-priced shops and restaurants nearby.

Outstanding service from the hotel's front desk clerks. Knowledgable, friendly, and helpful.

Lift was very helpful for bringing luggable from the street entrance to the 4th floor hotel lobby. Shower and bathroom were simple but clean. Could use a shelf to set down a toiletry case though. Bed was small, but adequate and comfortable.

Morning breakfast was simple but quite adequate, although you might be more satisfied stepping out to Aida's or one of the other nearby cafes on Alser Strasse for a coffee and a pastry.

The non-smoking room and the bed, linens, etc. wreaked of cigarette smoke. The noise from the street trams was very noticeable and would be disturbing to a light sleeper.

Overall a good value and a good location.

In one word: excellence

This hotel truly lives up to its name. Friendly staff who went out of their way to make sure all my needs for comfort and service were met, and to accommodate all my requests. High quality, spacious room. Super clean. Modern, with furniture and linens in excellent condition. Breakfast included a wide variety of food for every taste. Wifi was fast and stable throughout my stay. Hotel is centrally located and within walking distance to main sights. A pleasant 10-minute ride on tram 5 takes you from the hotel doorstep to the Westbanhof train station. Spar supermarket is a 2-minute walk away. All this for a very reasonable and comparatively low price. Highly recommended. Thank you for an excellent experience.

Lever ikke op til, at være et 4 stjernet hotel.

Smukt hotel med flot indretning, dog noget mindre end forventet. Specielt parkeringspladsen, der som havde 5 pladser! Rengøringen kunne gøres meget bedre, der blev ikke skiftet sengetøj eller lagn én eneste gang! Trods der blev sat rengøringsskilt op foran døren til værelset. Så blev der kun støvsuget og tømt skraldespande. Hverken toilet eller vask samt spejl blev rengjort, hvilket er for ringe! Ligeledes manglede der opfyldning af både toiletpapir og håndsæbe som vi selv måtte påpege manglede.
Morgenmaden var fin, men meget lidt udvalg og dårlig kvalitet af juice.

Så alt i alt ikke den størreste begejstring, som man forventede af et 4 stjernet hotel.

Das Hotel macht den Eindruck, auf Verschleiß gefahren zu werden: Lose Handtuch- und Toilettenpapierhalter, der WLAN-AP hängt am LAN-Kabel von der Decke, mit der Tischplatte des einbeingen Tisches im Frühstücksraum kann man Kinderwippe spielen, der Duschkopf ist verkalkt und verschimmelt, der Aufzug defekt...

If new going guest think hotel is close to city as hotel menion, don't trust on them it's far and old hotel and even they say 4 star hotel, but hotel condition and service is like 2 or 3 star hotel.
