Ibis budget Wien Messe

I stayed at Ibis budget wien messe from March 28th until April 2nd. I have to say that the entire process was quite delightful; getting to the hotel is quite easy as it is a 7-10 minute walk for the metro. The check in process was also very smooth; I arrived around 9AM and was even granted early check in, which was very helpful. All the staff that I interacted with was pleasant and helpful; they even gave me good Vienna recommendations. Two things about the rooms you might want to keep in mind: there is no hair drier in the room and you have to ask for it at the front desk (I read somewhere that there is a 20 euro deposit, not sure cause I didn’t ask for a hair drier) and that there is no fridge in the room. This one is quite uncomfortable as anything you buy that need a fridge will go bad in a day; but it is what it is. Overall, with the given budget, I think it’s a good stay. Getting around the city is super easy, again due to the metro nearby. Also, getting to the airport is also easy- there is a train station nearby and you can take REX7 or S7 nearby. Overall would definitely recommend.

By entering the hotel the first impression you get- it looks just as a hospital. However, the longer you stay, you basically realize that the bathing cabin just in a room is pretty convenient to use. What I liked mostly: everyday cleaning , supportive personnel, decent price and great location. Breakfast could be better served (eg, with fried eggs or omelet). Wifi connection is stable.

This is a hotel that does exactly what it says on the tin... Pre arrival communication was good and check in was swift at the 24/7 manned reception. Our double room was located on the 1st floor and was spacious, clean and well presented, cleaned daily and fresh towels provided, more than adequate for the needs of this married couple. Not sure the in-room shower, and unlockable toilet door would suit friends though. Room also had a small wall mounted TV with multilingual channels available (German/English/Russian/French/Arabic). Our Bed was firm yet comfortable (how we like it), the shower was hot, and the water was plentiful. To get into Vienna (Wein) city center just go out of the hotel and turn left for approx. 500m on the same side of the road to the U-Bahn station called Vorgartenstrasse. a ticket costs 2.5 Euro per person if you buy a single trip and is only a few stops on Line U1 (red) to either Schwedenplatz (3 stops & 3 mins) or Stephansplatz (4 stops & 4 mins).

The room was clean and nice. Good value for money. It was basic but spacious and had everything I needed. The staff was really nice and were especially kind when I wanted to checkout late, and was a few minutes late for the time they approved. I think that each time we spoke they were very nice and helpful. There were always people walking in the street even at night and it was very close to U1 metro so it was easy to get into the center of town

The hotel is very close to Praterstern Station, very useful to move around the city. If you are planning to walk to the main parts of the city, it’s a nice pleasant walk around 35mins. The breakfast was good and there was a good selection of coffee, tea, pastries etc. Housekeeping is excellent. Reception staff very helpful and extremely friendly.
