This area is very convenient to the train station, shopping stores, and eateries. However, it is not good for families that want peace and quiet. We experienced no hot water in the morning of our last day stay and the staff on duty were not very helpful.
The room was clean but hotel is very hectic. Lots of school groups and noisy hallways. Bit far from the sights but overall if looking for a cheap option staff was nice and it was clean.
The location was excellent, walkable to the train station, city bus, trams and tourist area.

Cheap stay
Hotel is ok if you really want a cheap hotel near Vienna’s central train station. Somewhat unclean, check in took a long time, bed and especially the pillows were very uncomfortable, towels were awful, and loud noises could be heard in the room. Location is ideal near the train station.

Nice and Comfortable Stay
I stayed at a&o Wien and had a great time. The room was clean and comfortable. The staff were friendly and helpful. The location is good and close to public transport. Everything was easy and well organized. I would stay here again.
Needs more staff and proper check in service. Waited an hour because they never provided the right booking number and in the evening had to wait 45 minutes for a drink. Manager and other employee just stood there watching while one girl that was working to help. Never offered to help anyone. Washer and dryers were broken. Wouldn’t recommend even with the great location.
The room was very good. It was clean, spacious and washrooms were also good with necessary amenities. But, the checkin took so long that we had to be in a que for almost an hour or more. I think it's because of the new year but still they shoukd have done necessary arrangements. Later at night, the heater for room was not working and that too in winter and snow. We asked them if they could do anything about it, but their reply was that there are no rooms available, so they can't do anything. I felt like it was not at all right.
The location was excellent and the place itself was comfortable, but the coffee was terrible. The customer service was also very poor. It feels like the hotel is run by people who don’t want to be there. I understand the self-service concept, but sometimes their own system doesn’t work and someone needs to assist. The least you expect is a friendly attitude, not to be treated as if you’re a burden. On top of that, my plan included breakfast, but it didn’t show in their system, so I had to pay extra.
Was very near to central station which made it easy to get to Vienna airport. Didnt like the check in process. Couldnt find a booking reference, one member of staff didnt want to help. Second member of staff found my booking reference then sent me back to the self check.in which was long winded when it was late with two tired kids.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
No microwave no refrigerator
Good location and public transportation
All shops in the train station nearby for food and drinks
It is not a hotel it’s a hostel. If you are travelling with family please don’t stay at this property. Staff is like robots. No fans and air circulation in the room. It’s like a jail room. Furniture is so tightly placed there is no circulation space at all. Only one plus point is that it is near to the Wein central train station that’s it.
Thank you.
Clean property, w quick check-in. BUT... We couldn't sleep all night because the group of highschoolers on their class trip kept smashing doors, knocking on doors, and brawling all night in the corridor. Despite asking staff to have a word with them, nothing was done. Be aware that this is used predominantly by students who show no respect to other guests. I will certainly not return.

We stayed only one night and left early (missed breakfast). The location is very close to central train station so it's convenient to take morning train.

We will definitely book again if come back next time
