Austria Trend Hotel Ananas
The hotel and staff is very good. Very clean hotel. Metro station just steps from the hotel. Breakfast is ok. Not much variety. At the moment the only con is the construction going on just beside it.

We had a completely trouble free and very pleasant stay here. The facilities, food, staff and decor were all amazing. I would recommend this to anyone when they are visiting Vienna. It is also about a 2 min walk from Belvedere which was a really good sight to take in straight away on arrival. Loved ...
