Leonardo Hotel Vienna Hauptbahnhof
제가 묵던 층의 엘리베이터가 고장나있어서 조금 불편했지만 이외에는 모든것이 만족스러웠습니다. 세번째 이용하는데 다음에도 또 이용할 것 같아요! 엘리베이터 버튼은 빨리 고쳐져서 다른분들이 불편함을 겪지 않았으면 좋겠습니다. 숙소의 너무 좋은 장점이 가려지지 않으면 좋겠어요.

We really enjoyed this quirky hotel. It’s clean, comfortable and welcoming. The room was nice with great shower. The best part was the the huge circular window looking over Vienna. The hotel is close to the train station and a walk to the sites.
