Hotel Details

Location

3 minutes from U2 Messe-Prater station, 4 minutes by underground to the city centre, and directly opposite a supermarket.
The property sits in a quiet, tree-lined district on the banks of the Danube River, yet is highly practical for access: Messe-Prater station on the U2 line is a 3-minute walk, and Vorgartenstraße on the U1 line is about 7 minutes away, so the city centre, Stephansplatz, and the main train station are reachable within 15 minutes. The Messezentrum exhibition centre, the Prater amusement park, and the WU campus are only a few minutes away on foot, making the location particularly suitable for conference visitors, marathon runners, and business travellers. A supermarket (Eurospar, Lidl) is directly across the street, and casual restaurants such as Stuwer - Neues Wiener Beisl are within a 5-minute walk. The VAL3 bus stop to Vienna Airport is also nearby, and the Danube bike and jogging trails start right outside the door.

Dining

No on-site restaurant or breakfast service; guests cook in their private kitchen or use the supermarket and local eateries directly opposite.
Each apartment has a fully equipped kitchen with a stovetop, microwave, dishwasher, and fridge-freezer, making it easy to prepare your own meals. A Eurospar and Lidl are literally across the street, so buying ingredients is simple. There is no restaurant, bar, or communal dining area on the property. For evening meals, casual options such as Stuwer - Neues Wiener Beisl (Viennese cuisine, 0.5 km) or dezentral (0.5 km) are a short walk away. The kitchen does not come with oil, salt, pepper, tea or coffee - you will need to bring or buy your own. The property has no breakfast offerings, and no in-room dining service.

Leisure

No pool, spa, or gym on site, but jogging and cycling trails start right outside, and the Prater park is within a 5-minute walk.
The property does not have its own pool, spa, or fitness room. However, the Danube River bike and jogging paths are immediately accessible, and the Prater (a large public park with the famous ferris wheel and amusement park) is less than 5 minutes away on foot. For green space and jogging, the area offers excellent options. An 18-hole golf course is 1 km away. Hiking and fishing (additional charge) are available nearby. The quiet inner-courtyard setting is also ideal for relaxing after a day of sightseeing.

Amenities

Free Wi-Fi, paid airport shuttle (€60 one way), private parking €25/day, express self-check-in, and a minimarket on site.
Wi-Fi is free in all areas (shared with the building; connection strength can vary). A paid airport shuttle costs €60 one way for 1-6 people and includes a personal check-in plus help with luggage up the stairs. Parking is available at an off-site location for €25 per day and must be reserved by email in advance. Check-in is self-service using codes sent 2 days before arrival, with express check-in/out available. A minimarket is located on the property. Pets are not allowed. The building has no elevator but offers the option to request a lower floor. The host can issue an invoice for business travellers after checkout. CCTV and key access are in place for security.

Critical Operational Notes

  • Check-in is from 15:00 to 21:00; late self-check-in is possible using codes sent 2 days before arrival.
  • Luggage cannot be stored before check-in or after check-out due to insurance policies.
  • Private parking costs €25 per day, must be reserved via email, and is located off-site.
  • No elevator is available; apartments are on floors 3 through 9, with each local 'etage' equating to half a normal floor.
  • Housekeeping during the stay is not included; towels and trash are not replaced or removed unless specifically requested.

Top Strategic Tips

  • 01

    Arrive fit to climb stairs: the property is on the 3rd to 9th floor without an elevator, and each local 'etage' is half a normal floor.

  • 02

    Book private parking for €25 per day well in advance via email, as spots are limited and located nearby.

  • 03

    Use the paid airport shuttle (€60 one way for 1-6 people) for a personal check-in plus help with luggage, avoiding the stairs with heavy bags.

  • 04

    Plan to buy basics such as cooking oil, salt, pepper, dishwasher tablets, and toilet paper, as the apartment supplies only core kitchenware and a few towels.
