The location is by far the best advantage of this hotel. The combination of a hotel and a pension is strange, not exactly what I expected from a four-star facility.

The hotel is in a really good location, easy to walk around and close to the metro. The staff were all very nice.
The only issue I had was my room window curtain. My room was near the hallway, and every time someone walked past, the hallway lights would come on. My room’s window curtains weren't thick enough to block the light, so I kept getting woken up.

Liked the location but nothing else. The room looked nothing like what I booked and I specifically paid more for a larger room but got a 10x10 box with paper thin walls, with a window to a hall. The room was a no smoking room, though the hotel allows smokers to smoke just off that hallway, so I had to constantly close the window in the room, but then I would roast. The coffee maker in the room wasn’t free either and the breakfast was limited and not worth the price. They also asked that the room keys be turned in when you leave the hotel. The bed was horribly uncomfortable. I will never stay there And will likely not book with Expedia again either.

This is not a genuine 4 star hotel. 2.5 at best. The rooms in the photos do not match reality. My \"king size\" bed was probably less than a double.
The staff at the hotel were very friendly and tried their best.

The price was good for Vienna but the facility is definitely a 3 star budget accommodation. Room was basic with no tea kettle and super small shower. Did not like that the faucet runs on automatic sensors. This presents a challenge for shaving.

Convenient with exceptional warmth

I missed my train stop from the airport and managed to arrive at the hotel way past 1am on a weekday after a long detour due to the time of the day. Was welcomed by the owner who made a warm cup of coffee for me - just about what I needed after a long trip. He was very friendly and I enjoyed our chat. Was greeted a nice goodbye by his daughter the next morning. The hotel is just minutes walk from the train station. Highly recommended!

Pleasure to stay in

First of all I want to thank all the staff especially Miclosh, Zoltan and Alexandra, they are doing all the best to help you with whatever you need.
Corvinus is located 10 min. walk from Museums Quarter and near Neubaugasse metro station, there is a signboard on a building, so no problem to find him. Its a small, cozy hotel and located in just one of the floors, but despite of this my room was pretty big (single), very clean (cleaned every day). The breakfast was varied and tasty: eggs, cheese, salami, salads, olives, yogurts and many more...Also the staff is making for you coffee or tea every breakfast.
Definitely one of the best hotels I've stayed in.

Our room had an unpleasant odor as soon as we entered. It smelled like a bag of rotting onions. We found out it was coming from the toilet. We did not make a fuss about it as our stay was only for one night. We just closed the bathroom door, opened up the windows, went to sleep, and checked out first thing in the morning.

Highly Recommended

The hotel/pension is located in a good place, near a underground transportation station, in THE street of shopping and entertainment - Mariahilferstrasse - a heaven for shoppers. Good breakfast (and if you have special needs (I am on gluten free diet and the every breakfast they served me GF bread, cereals and cake with no additional charge), the family that runs the pension will provide it. The single room was a little small, but clean, and the price is fair, relatively to this area (Vienna is not a cheap place).
Last but not least - the stuff (the family who owns the pension) was very friendly and helpful.

Great property! Comfortable stay

NOTE: I may copy and paste these reviews to TripAdvisor/Yelp/Hotels.com

A great property - the owner checked us in and was so pleasant! He was really helpful and very nice.

The room was a bit small for the three of us, but we made it work. The A/C unit requires that you ask for the remote at the front desk, they just ask that you turn it off when you leave the room (which isn't a huge deal). It's definitely not a luxury property, but that didn't matter to us much.

They offer breakfast for a small fee, but we opted out.

The property was located a short walk to tours and things like that (15 min or so) but that wasn't a huge deal for us. We were able to find nice restaurants and other things to do easily.

Great property, great stay!

A homely experience

I actually stayed here quite a while back, but this place left me with such good memories I just needed to come leave a review when I finally remembered. Firstly, the location is perfect, being just down the road from a metro station, and within walking distance of many major attractions (except Schonbrunn, which isn't really near anything anyway). We were also pleasantly surprised at the decor of the room, as it was beautifully furnished at a level none of us had expected at our price point. And as an added plus, the service you enjoy at this family-run place is beyond fantastic. We had some problems with our toilet on our first night, and they not only went out of their way to try and help us fix it that very night, the issue was also promptly fixed first thing the next morning. A place I'd highly recommend, and would definitely revisit.

We were lucky...

There is major construction project taking place on the street that this hotel is on. When we arrived the noise looked like it would be a major concern. Luckily for us the following day was a national holiday, and then it was Saturday. So no more construction activity during our stay.

The hotel had a family atmosphere to it, and we felt very welcome. Location was convenient, but was outside of central 'ring' of Vienna. no problem if you get the metro pass (the metro is 2 mins. from the hotel). I would encourage anyway seeing Vienna to take advantage of the Vienna City Bikes program. A great deal.

Great location, but slightly outdated

The room was clean, but was still pretty outdated in terms of style and whatnot. I stayed in a room with a twin bed, a small table/desk and a mini-fridge. The sink was separated from the main part of the small room by a curtain, then a door revealed the toilet and shower in what felt like a bathroom from an RV. It wasn't bad, it was just not what I was expecting. The owner (or who I assume to be the owner) is friendly. He let me leave the big key for the room (not a keycard) at the front desk every day so i wouldn't have to carry it. Location across the street from the U3 on a main shopping street was really great because it made exploring other parts of the city was easier and more comfortable.

Okay for the price.

I got an en suite bathroom in a room near a super convenient metro stop for a reasonable spot, so I can't complain too much, but there were some weird things.

It's on a super busy street with tons of shopping if you're into that. And it's next door to an English language cinema that was pretty nice (there's another one that's a bit nicer called Artis Intl off the Stephansplatz metro stop if you're into that. I've been out of the US for weeks and welcomed a bit of home!). It's also only a short walk to Museumsplatz which was really convenient.

The condition of the room was fine, not too small for EU standards. The bathroom was tiny, but that's normal too. Clean and tidy. The bed have me a serious backache though, and that's the last thing you need after a long day of walking. The AC is nice to have! But you have to ask for the remote. They like you to open the windows instead, but as it was 80's/90's weather while I was there and it's the window overlooked a courtyard on a main road that was loud all night, that wasn't happening.

Also, you have to leave your room key at the front desk whenever you leave the hotel and they'll give it to you when you come back. 24hr front desk, but you still have to ring the bell to get let into the hotel and then ask for your key. I was told it's so they know when you're gone... Uh, why is that important. Once I left for dinner and had the windows closed and I came back and the windows were opened. This was after housekeeping had already been through, so they went in particularly to do that in the hour I was gone? That just seems weird to me.

All in all it was a decent stay. They let me store my luggage all day because I had a really late train, so I was really happy about that! It was a little too busy of an area for me, but if you're looking for that, then this hotel is definitely a bargain.

No frills excellent hotel in great location!

Current renovations on the shops made entry to the hotel quite bothersome (noise, dust), but these should be complete soon enough. The owner is present always and the staff is largely family and very pleasant and helpful. The hotel is located on a bustling street full of shops, restaurants, cafes and is close to museums. The rooms are small, but more than sufficient for those who plan to spend most time away from the hotel.
