The Hotel Caroline Vienna is a 3-star hotel on Gudrunstraße, in Favoriten (the 10th district), in an older building with a modern extension. Its main strength is the buffet breakfast with Viennese dishes; the rest is simple.
Location and getting around
It is in a residential area south of the centre. Vienna Central Station (Wien Hauptbahnhof) is about a 15-minute walk away and the Belvedere about 25. The State Opera is 2.7 km away and St Stephen’s Cathedral (Stephansdom) 3.3 km, so you will need public transport for the centre.
According to the hotel, the shopping street Favoritenstraße is next door and Keplerplatz U-Bahn station (U1) is about five minutes on foot.
Rooms and facilities
Wi-Fi is free and there is a terminal with internet access at reception. Every morning a buffet breakfast is served that includes traditional Viennese specialities.
There is no mention of air conditioning, a bar or a restaurant, or of a 24-hour reception.
Who it suits
- Guests who want to start the day with a full Viennese breakfast.
