Hotel Atlanta

Stayed for three nights with a friend. Situated near the city centre which is easily accessible by tram. Comfortable room and friendly staff. The breakfast was excellent and great value for 12,50€ per person…we had it every day as it really set us up and didn’t need to have a substantial lunchtime meal. Would definitely stay here again.

I stayed at this hotel with my mum, while we were visiting Vienna for a week, in July 2022. There was no option to go back this far on Trip Advisor , so please bear this in mind! We had been travelling around Austria for three weeks, and stayed here for one week in July 2022. It's a grand old-fashioned high ceilinged 19th century Viennese building, which has been turned into a hotel. While it's beautiful and impressive to look at and wander around in, you realise how impractical this is once you start staying there. The rooms are spacious and comfortable - but no atmosphere to them. Just the basics provided, without any attempt to make you feel comfortable there. The bathroom was on a step down from the bedroom area, and without proper ventilation inside, so it got very hot and stuffy while using it. When we visited, temperatures hit upwards of 35 degrees - and so, in a hotel full of carpets, grand windows and high ceilings, the atmosphere was stifling! They gave us a few fans, but this really didn't help with air circulation. It's not the hotel's fault - but if they know this will a problem in the future, perhaps they can better prepare for it. However, one fault of the hotel is definitely the staff they employed - cold unfriendly, and pretentious. When we arrived, we asked if there were restaurants in the area we could go to - the clerk replied he had no idea. Later on, we discovered plenty as we wandered down the road... We also asked if we can have hot water or a kettle of some kind, to make tea and coffee in our room. The clerk looked really shocked by this request and didn't offer any help at all. I don't think it's too unreasonable to ask for that in a hotel, especially a 4 star one. I jokingly called it Hotel Atlantis, while we were there - because it felt like it was a proud, ancient hotel that had fallen into the sea, and they hadn't bothered to look after it since then!

The location of the hotel is quite nice, but the rooms were pretty old. The bathroom was making a lot of noise when turning the light on. The curtains were not filtering the lights at all. Staff was pretty nice. We did not try the breakfast. For me it is not a 4 stars hotel. Some renovations are needed.

The hotel is in a very good location, 10-12 mins walk from the Schottentor subway station and trams interchange. We stayed in the hotel for one night, the hotel met our expectations. You can park your car in the nearby streets, parking is free at the weekend. The hotel offers breakfast but we didn't use it. The room we got was on the street side with trams running so it's not perfectly quiet. However, you cannot expect from a hotel in the center of Vienna that there will be rural silence in it :-)
