Vienna

[CMK]

We are planning to go to Vienna in March and hoping to stay in an apartment which is quite central - its for four nights. Has anyone stayed in apartment whilst there? Have looked into the usual web sites but the apartments are mainly for more than 4 people so was hoping to find a one bed. Any replies would be appreciated.

thanks

Yes stayed in an apartment there for four nights 5/6 weeks ago.Have a look at this site [broken link removed]
Have used these people twice this year in Vienna and Rome and found them good.As we did not know Vienna we stayed near Westbanhof Station and apartment was only a short walk away.Apartment in Rome was excellent.The one in Vienna was clean and adequate-except it had a wandering showerhead which was annoying.It was also just a few mins from main shopping street and great transport system.Buy a Vienna Card about 18 Euro which allows u hop on/off trams and metro as much as u like.

over rated city that operates as a museum, is clogged with traffic, poor quality restaurants and too many people trying to sell you a musical night (which is not bad actually). Are you really sure you want to go to Vienna..much better cities in Europe...Barcelona/Dubrovnik/Edinburgh/London/Paris

I did this trip last year but flew in to Bratislava with SkyEurope.com then got the connecting bus to Vienna. Beautiful coach journey through the winefields. Stayed in the NH Belvedere a lovely hotel well located. Vienna has beautiful architecture and parks and I would agree with portboy about the restaurant scene. Worth no more than a 3 night stay. Why not spend a couple of nights in Bratislava and a couple of nights in Vienna.
