Garten- und Kunsthotel Gabriel City

This was the best value hotel we found on Booking.com. It was clean and had the facilities we wanted. The rooms were a good size with traditional furniture and comfortable beds and a bathroom with a big bath and shower. Our room was serviced every day. The breakfast consisted of plenty of meat, cheese and bread with cereal and yogurt and coffee from an automatic machine - just one machine for everyone, which did cause some queues. There is a delightful and quiet garden out the back, however the garden lights were not working when we sat out there after dark. Reception is open 24 hours. The hotel is 5 minutes from from St. Marx station which has a direct connection to the airport and also a tram stop which takes you into the city. Alternatively, there is a U3 station about 10 minutes walk away which will take you to the city centre. There is an ALDI store next door (not open on Sundays!) and a kebab house and grill just down the street. The area around the hotel is peasant and quiet and a number of good restaurants are less than ten minutes walk away.

Good location (near bus, tram and metro stop), about 2 km from the Old Town. The staff was very helpful. Breakfast had plenty of choices, coffee was very good. The hotel looked nice and was clean. We arrived earlier, and since the room was ready, we got it earlier. When we left, we were able to store our luggage until our departure at the hotel reception.

Very nice hotel for the money with a very friendly and helpful reception/staff. We also liked the breakfast quite a lot. The hotel can easily we reached by the normal OBB train from the airport, get out at station St Marx. From there it is 7 minutes walk to the hotel. Train trip takes about 20 minutes. If you like a walk you can easily walk from the hotel to the center of Vienna, takes about 45 minutes, we really enjoyed the walk.

- More spacious showers in the Superior room. One could turn around and take a shower in peace and still have room. - Breakfast buffet - to choose from a lot of things that everyone, even picky people, has chosen. - In the end, my friend had a room in a different building than ours, but he had a classic room with a couch. - The rooms had tables and chairs. - bathrooms spacious and clean. We had everything close to the accommodation and I see no reason why we should not stay here again the next time we visit Vienna. :)

Thing that I liked: Is easy to get to the hotel from the airport. Has plenty of supermarkets/shops/restaurants nearby. The room was on the back on the hotel so super quiet, perfect to rest. Even the tiles in the bathroom were heated which is nice. Room was comfortable. Breakfast was really good, a lot of variety.
