Review: Hotel Prinz Eugen, Vienna 2015

As we had to catch an early train at 7:07AM to Prague on Wednesday morning, it was imperative to spend the second night at a property close to the train station. Although Vienna is a fairly small city and our previous hotel was only 20 minutes by tram, breakfast is only served from 6:30AM, and we will have to skip it or miss the train.

The hotel was diagonally opposite the Vienna Main Station, and only a 5 to 7 minutes brisk walk away.

The lobby was well furnished and had a really cosy feeling, though we did not use it.

Check-in was fast and wifi vouchers were given to us.

The staircase was also well decorated, with plenty of city guides at the counter, though most of them were in German, not English, perhaps indicative that the hotel generally caters to the domestic or regional travelers.

The room was really small, almost reminding me of hotels in Hong Kong. Given that we were only spending one night here it wasn't that much of an issue.The room was clean and the bed were comfortable, which was sufficient to recharge for the night before heading to Prague the next morning.

This time round, although the wifi was provided by the same telco Swisscom, the surfing speed was much faster than at the previous hotel and I managed to resend my assignment to my classmate.

The bath room was clean, the water pressure and temperature were also good.

We had a peaceful night's sleep.

The breakfast selection was far less extensive than at the previous hotel, though was sufficient for a quick bite before catching a train.
