I stayed at Alpha Wien during first week of December, so finding hotels was a challenge. That said, I was very close to the tram line and subway ... this was very convenient for travel to city centre and elsewhere. Breakfast was unbelievable!

The breakfast buffet was good and they also provided coffee, cappuccino, tea, hot water and cold water in the evenings and night time. They opened the breakfast buffet to us before normal opening time as we had to leave earlier to go to the airport. The staff at reception were wonderful. Very helpful with information and gave great service.

Fabulous hotel right in the city centre. Ideal for the Christmas Markets. Coffe available 24/7. Superb breakfast. Intend returning in the spring to do the city without the razzmatazz of Christmas. I can highly recommend this hotel. Staff very helpful with directions and always there to greet you when you come in.

“Very central vintage style hotel”
- • Business trip
- • Group
- • Stayed 6 nights
The shower has the glass barrier to stop the water from coming out. Well, it is short, plus there is an open space between it and the wall. The internet is not the fastest nor the most stable, but was ok. Definitely not the dream come true for streaming. Rooms are a tad bit outdated in my opinion, but they have a certain charm because of it.
WARNING - The review is for the partner hotel where I was relocated - Hotel de France Breakfast was nice, had a lot of options, it gets a tad bit boring after a few days, but really good breakfast. The eating area is also very nice, some nice window seats and it is on the first floor. The hotel is really close to everything. No need to take public transportation at all if you want to stay in the center. The room had the CRT TV, which was a surprise. The rest of the room seems to be from the same era. Even though it is a bit older, everything is clean. My room had no view, it was overlooking the inner area - read walls, but that was ok, it was very quiet, even with the wind raging everywhere else in the city. Very high ceilings, which was nice. Room size is satisfactory, not very spacious, but should be more than enough for 2 people. Bathroom is nice and big. It has bathtub, if you prefer it over the shower that's great for you. Master switch helps you kill all the power sockets (except the mini bar) and lights. I found it nice. Also, I believe you can charge appliances even while you are out, just don't hit the switch. They do not expect you to do it either, I found it on many times after the cleaning service. Very friendly staff, they speak multiple languages. Very nice interior.

I had a very nice surprise- altghough we did not stay in this hotel due to some renovations, the hotel redirected our booking to their partner, a 5* hotel, in excellent conditions. On my birthday, I was pleasantly surprised to find a nice greeting together with a delicios cupcake from the hotel.

We didn't stay at Hotel Alpha Wien but in Hotel De France ( one of the same group) but we didn't had any problems with that since they were completely honest about all the details.
Breakfast was amazing, the buffet had everything you can imagine , vegetables, fruits, eggs etc. Also the staff was very good and helpful. The room was very comfortable.

No room service during certain hours no water in room when trying to call room service no answer husband went down to concierge and told he can't help shop 20 metres up road!!! Room view was a brick wall no view of Vienna top of stairs Very noisy next to cleaning cupboard Double bed was 2 singles not zipped so kept pulling apart. Breakfast service ok but definitely not 5 star standard. Restaurant closed both nights. For a special break for us meant we never actually wanted to use hotel . Which is unusual for us.
We did not stay in this hotel alpha wien unfortunately they cancelled and put us in Hotel de France reviews based on this hotel. The only plus sides was location for a 5 star very dissapointed girls at reception very friendly. Decor if old very traditional to our taste.

Also a basic hotel it was clean and comfortable.
The location near the Rarhaus was great. Many nice cafes/restaurants in the area that Weren’t too touristy. Walking distance to the Altstadt. Breakfast was included and was quite good. Great to be able to set the heating level in the room. The foyer had great sitting area where you could make yourself tea and coffee. We were given a late checkout as our flight was at 10pm and this was much appreciated.
