10/10 Exceptional

A fantastic place to stay during a trip to Vienna. The hotel is beautiful, well maintained, and ideally located within walking distance of many of the city's main tourist attractions. It's also conveniently close to train and tram links, making it easy to reach destinations further afield. The hotel staff were exceptional, always friendly, helpful, and attentive. The hotel itself was spotlessly clean, making for a very comfortable and enjoyable stay.

It was excellent hotel, very friendly staff. There was cookies to welcome us in the room. Hotel transfer was a taxi service that you pay separately. They also give us a spice jar as a gift. Definitely will come back when we’re in Vienna.

10/10 Exceptional

The Josefshof hotel was exceptional (and I’m an avid traveller with high standards). It is a wonderful boutique hotel on an idyllic quiet street in the centre of all the best historic sites but away from any chaos and tourists. The rooms were very clean and well-appointed, staff was lovely, and the feel in the hotel was calming and charming. The breakfast is fantastic and the attention to detail is impressive (a honeycomb?!). I loved having breakfast in the courtyard garden and returning there later in the day for some down time. I will not look anywhere else to stay for my next visit to Wien. I love everything about this hotel.

Our stay at this hotel was absolutely wonderful. The rooms are big and spacious and the beds as well, we were 3 people and it was very roomy. The hotel is clean and the staff is very professional and friendly! They made us feel very welcome. The location is great it’s not right in the innerstadt but close to it about a 10 minute walk. It is very close to major attractions and cafes close by. You can walk anywhere and everywhere. It is nice to come back to a quiet place after a long day of sight seeing and crowds. I highly recommend this place, I want to give a huge thank you ti Anna and Florian at the front desk. They were impeccable and so supportive and friendly. Amazing place, thank you for having us, you made our visit in Vienna so much better.

The hotel was amazing and had one of the best breakfasts I have ever had. Its location was excellent, just a 14-minute walk from both the Rose Garden and the Hofburg. The staff were incredibly helpful, especially Luca, Florian, and Annalena, who made our stay even more enjoyable. I would highly recommend this hotel and would gladly stay here again.

The Hotel Josefhof is in a great location for all the Vienna sights, close enough to be walkable, but far enough away as not to be noisy. Our room was very quiet, comfortable and well appointed. The staff members were very helpful. The bar and lounges are on the small side.
