Hotel Review

A superb hotel in both idea and execution. Contemporary, minimalist, design throughout gives a young hip feel. Rooms are light and airy with large windows, soft hues and modern artworks donated from the Academy of Fine Arts. The majority of staff were refugees; find 23 different languages spoken and wonderful diversity. The salon perfectly reflects the hotel's ethos with an array of world foods offered for breakfast, social interaction encouraged, a trendy feel and rotating art exhibits. Close to the city centre, this hotel is a complete gem and superb value to boot!

The Vienna hotel where refugees welcome the guests

"With individual design touches in each of its 78 rooms, its retro style, including knitted lampshades and sassy murals, have been charming guests since it opened near the city’s Prater park in February."
