The Altstadt is truly special and one of a kind. It’s like staying in your own private art museum. But it isn’t stuffy, not one bit. They serve a cake and candy tea each afternoon to their guests! There’s a secret roof terrace with snacks! The staff is absolutely top notch, the warmest and most helpful folks ever. They will give you fantastic recommendations for local restaurants and shops. And it’s remarkably quiet given that the hotel is less than a half mile west of the Museums Quartier and the Hofburg. PS the beds are perfect. Not too firm and not too soft. PPS Seriously the place is a treasure. The schatz kammer should be jealous.

Enjoyed the location close to the Museum Quarter. We parked our car in the MQ garage about a 15 minute walk from hotel. It was about a 10 minute walk to the Ringstrasse. Staff was very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was delightful. Room is small and sink was in the room instead of bathroom. Street noise is loud so had to keep windows closed at night.

Wonderful hotel filled with interesting art. Comfortable king-sized bed (which I didn’t expect) & nice-sized room. Delicious breakfast with extensive choices: combination of buffet and made-to-order options. Extremely friendly, helpful staff (desk and cleaning people). Our room, with windows facing inner courtyard, was very quiet. We were sorry to leave!

The staff at Alstadt is incredible. Service is friendly, prompt and anticipitory. They offer a complimentary breakfast and absoloutely lovely Afternoon Tea complete with pianist. There is wonderful art installed throughout the property and a rooftop terrace for relaxation outdoors. A nice amenity in a city hotel. The hotel is quiet and the housekeeping staff remembers what guests like (extra coffee for the in-room Nespresso) and provide same. Would stay again without hesitation.
