The location was great. It's about 5 minutes easy walk from the Westbahnhof train/metro station, which is great if you want to get around. It's about 3 minutes walk from Mariahilfer Strasse, the huge shopping street that runs all the way from the station to the pedestrianised old centre of Vienna. Unless you want to stay in the old centre,... More

This hostel was fairly standard but was reasonable, clean and had a good location very close to Westbahnhof train/metro station. The room was very simple but was quiet and had a very good shower. The reception staff were friendly but not particularly personal - it would have been nice to have been given some information or recommendations. There was good... More

I stayed at Red Carpet Hostel during my visit to Vienna in July 2010. It is a very nice, quiet, clean yet happening place to stay. Westbahnhof metro station is hardly 500 meters away. There is a bus stop 400-500 meters away from where to and fro buses are available for airport. The hostel staff is very courteous and cooperative.... More

The room was good enough and ensuite. Good location. Some of the staff were a bit sullen though - definitely not 'red carpet' stuff. Was dismayed to find smoking allowed in the bar with some customers and staff smoking. The 10pm 'curfew' for noise outside wasn't enforced either and the street out front was noisy until nearly midnight. There are... More

The location is great, quiet and close to Westbahnhof which makes it very easy to get in Vienna with the subway (which is very efficient by the way). The rooms are comfortable (and there's a fridge in the room !), the kitchen is great (and there's a food store 10 mins away from the hostel), the staff is very friendly... More

The only bad thing... More

This is an interesting place...you walk down the street and you think...mmm...small street and doesn't look great. However, it's a really , really good place to stay! The rooms are clean (nice clean sheets) and the atmosphere here is very good. Free wireless in the bar/lobby and lots of nice people. The price is great and it's just next to... More

Was really worth the money. We arrived at Westbahnhof and it was right nearby the station. The receptionist told us where to go and was cute too ;) all together: Vienna is great, staying at red carpet makes it even better!

Had a great time at red carpet! friendly staff, great location, clean rooms. the welcome drink made it even better :) loved it!
