• After the first night, they moved me to a more quiet and larger room.
• Many tourist, the area seems like it is a little dangerous.

“Overall not bad, it met the expectations, however I do not think it is a five-star hotel. It is packed with many tourist. The breakfast is not very good for the price.”

“This hotel was an excellent choice for us. the hotel was maintained spotless and the staff was very courteous. the a/c was a welcome relief after staying at several other hotels in Europe that didn't have a/c.”

• Size of the rooms and friendliness of front desk staff.
• The air conditioning did not work properly.

“The hotel is across the street from an S-Bahn station, and has nice facilities. The only issue was that during our stay the air conditioning system did not work in the room we stayed at, and there was an overall damp smell to the place.”

• Very professional, full service.
• They nickle and dime you for absolutely everything.

“A good imitation of higher end American hotels. The transition from a classic European hotel to some sort of Euro-American combination is obvious. Paying full rate for this hotel would not be worth it. Getting a superb nightly rate will only help the final a little, as add-on charges are rampant.”

• Good location next to subway, but not central.
• The value for the price was not great, even using the "name your own price" option.

“A rather bland exterior, but inside it is much better. It is a nice hotel, no real complaints, but nothing special either. Staff was helpful. Lots of pillows on the bed and where nice, and the swimming pool was interesting. An almost completely unremarkable hotel, and for the price breakfast and use of the fitness room should have been included.”

• Great bed. Comfortable room. Helpful staff.
• Not walking distance to center. Expensive breakfast.

“Clean, comfortable, professionally run hotel. Just across the street from nearest U-bahn station, but not close enough to the center to walk - especially after a long day of activity.”

• Close to underground station.
• 5 underground stops away from city center.

“This is a typical Renaissance chain hotel. It is new and nicely appointed. It did lack a coffee maker which is usually in most hotels of this caliber. A lot of bus tour groups stay there. It was a good value, but requires the traveler to be comfortable with public transit.”

• Inside decoration and cleanliness.
• Higher service charges for airport transportation.

“The prices for food and services airport transportation, garage parking are higher than comparable hotel Mercury. I will avoid any hotel whose management thinks that I am there for their leisure not mine.”

• The size of the rooms was good and they were clean.
• The breakfast buffet was good but the service was bad.

“The hotel was a short walk from the subway, which was very convenient. This made the location desirable because we could get to the center (Karlsplatz) in about 10 minutes. The rooms were clean and the lobby was pretty. The front desk staff was always helpful with questions and suggestions.”

• The service was consistently friendly.

“Generally, a well-run, clean and friendly hotel. I would recommend it to others, as I had no major issues with the place. Again, my only real problem was with the health club. They allow smoking in this area, which is an obvious contradiction to the whole health concept. The highly cramped workout room is also jam packed with hopelessly out of date equipment.”

• The location is great. Its outside the city center, but wasn't a big deal because the subway is right across the street.
• I can't think of anything I didn't like outrageous mini bar prices that's a given!

“The Renaissance Wien Hotel is a beautiful hotel located outside the city center of Vienna Wienm, but is conveniently on one of the city's very efficient U-bahn subway lines and is only 4 stops from the city center. It is only one stop away from the fabulous Schonbrunn Palace. The rooms were tastefully decorated and very comfortable. The restaurant however was overpriced. I would highly recommend this hotel.”

• Nice hotel, fantastic deal.
• A/C did not work well, staff were slow to respond.

“The Renaissance Wien, a nice hotel located on the edge of a pleasant residential neighborhood, isn't close to the ring in Vienna, but central Vienna is easily accessed by U-bahn. The hotel is just across the street from the U-bahn stop and the ride to the center is less than ten minutes.”

• Quiet. Swimming Pool.
• Slow computer in Business Center and high charges for internet use

“Exceptionally helpful staff throughout hotel. Checking in and out was a breeze. Close to an underground and bus stop for easy access to the center of Vienna. Not many restaurants nearby but one friendly pub with tasty local cuisine right across the street.We would definitely stay at the Renaissance Wien again.”

• Over all it is a nice hotel but it is not a four star hotel
• The building is old and dated. The water temperature in the water would turn hot or cold uncontrollably!

“This a three star hotel at best both in terms of quality and location. The staff are pretty good but it seemed under staff most of the times. It is popular with big tourist groups and there is not enough staff to support the big groups!Would not go back to it!”

• Good sized room
• Air conditioning was not effective (although they were having extremely warm weather).

“This hotel was a breath of fresh air after having spent one night previously in another hotel which was recommended to us by the Tourist Information employee. It was very convenient to the metro as well.”

• Very helpful recption staff
• garage parking charges too high, and unknown at booking time

“While located some distance from downtown Vienna, only 10 minute walk to Shonenbrun Palace. Service in restaurant was excellent as was the fare. Houskeeping staff was excellent in their efforts, even providing iron and board within 3 minutes of request at midnight.”

“Renaissance Wein Hotel is a standard Marriott Business Hotel located near but not in the historic district. I found the hotel to be well operated, very clean and friendly in every way.”

“5-star rating seems very excessive. Nothing special about the room - clean, but nothing special decor-wise. No 5-star amenities such as nightly turn down, bathrobes, etc. We just came from a 5-star Hilton in Budapest - a world of difference between these two hotels.”

“There was only a small bar with sandwiches in the fridge available for dinner.”
