Queens Apartments

Great location

We had a fantastic couple of days.

We stayed in two apartments. The one on the 5th floor was very nice, the one on the 3rd floor had a very small bedroom and a window looking straight into the neighbour's. But the biggest issue with the flat is the location. While it has easy access to the centre via the underground train line, the neighbourhood is quite poor: there are drug addicts and drunks in the park (even at 4pm on a Sunday!) and a few sex shops nearby. The fact you have to leave a deposit for the towels makes the place feel cheap.

Comfort and cleanliness was great. They also allowed an early and quick check in. The apartment is located on a main road, so the noise outside was quite loud throughout the night. We were given a large room but it had no air conditioner, so we had to keep the windows open throughout the night.

We booked the two-bedroom apartment for a family of 5 adults. This provided five single beds, three in one room set up as a double and a single and a double in a second room. There were two shower rooms, one attached to each bedroom and a separate kitchen / eating room. The kitchen room was not huge but it had two electric hot plates, a microwave, sink, fridge, a bit of a worktop and a washing machine. We only spoke to the owners on the first and last day, we found them very nice and polite. The area is not brilliant, there are a couple of decent restaurants and a park full of drunk people but it does have good U-bahn and tram connections. We took the railjet from the airport to Hauptbahnhof and then tram 18 to the hotel. Check-in was nice and simple, we were given a set of keys and left to it. The accommodation was smaller than we were expecting, it would have been nice to have more communal area, the hotel doesn't have a lounge and neither does the room. We had to use one of the bedrooms as a lounge. The apartment was always warm as the air does not flow very well through it, I think there is little the management can do about this apart from install air conditioning, as it was they only provided one fan for the two bedrooms. Overall, I would recommend this hotel to a family looking for no-frills accommodation near the heart of Vienna.
