First up the hotel location was great, just a short walk from the metro station. There are shops and dining choices just outside. Service staff was responsive and attentive, exactly what you would expect from a 3 star hotel. I found the rooms a little small though, but I don't have any basis for comparison since this was the only... More

We stayed at the Hotel Fuerst Metternich for 6 nights, mid-October 2011. Be aware first, that the photos are very misleading. Pros: We found the room spacious and the beds very comfortable. The room was clean and very quiet. The location is good: just a block from the U3 U-Bahn station, and it is walkable to the Museumquartier or to... More

I have stayed at FM twice - most recently at end of July 2011, and also in early Oct 2010 when it was wet and cold. I stayed there again cos I knew where it was and could not be bothered (in a 6 week European tour of hotels largely for 1 or 2 nights) in choosing yet another. The... More

After the entrance ( all marble collums etc) it really does go downhill from there... and remeber this is Austria.. not some 3rd world country. Location is OK 15 mins to the centre, but the rooms.. like a 1970 dorm. Oppresive dark dingey, terrible bathroom, and the place aint Cheap either..this is not a 3 star hotel at all. The... More

Vienna was the second stop of our Europe trip & I didn't have high expectations from this hotel after having stayed at a beautiful one in Milan. Plus I'd read enough reviews to know what I was in for but the location & price were the deciding factors when booking. I must say that the hotel was very disappointing! We... More

Good location, easy parking (but you have to put parking coupons in the car), large rooom (we have a room for 3 persons), very decent price for Vienna, friendly people and good breakfast More

We very much enjoyed our 4 night stay in this quaint hotel. The staff was friendly and accommodating. Although our room was hot during the July heat, a receptionist gave us a fan which cooled things off. We also love the Viennese candies they offer at the main desk. We would reccommend this hotel to anyone travelling to Vienna. More

Room 35 was large with an excellent bathroom; shower was in the bath though, a pet hate of mine. We stayed for five nights and the staff were friendly enough with very good English. Housekeeping was excellent as was the bar, except the barman was grumpy and the prices steep. WiFi hardly worked but there is a PC available in... More

I chose Metternich because it claimed to have old world charm, with modern amenities, was centrally located and reasonably priced. It started with us not being able to find the hotel, so I called them from a phone booth but nobody at the reception answered - even though I called twice and let it ring for a long time! Found...
