Hotel Kolbeck - Vienna

6.5

It does not have elevator, anything important when the suitcase weighs.

7.7

nice small hotel, easy to reach from city centre, perfect for a longer stay

9.3

comfy beds, great bathroom, close to the underground, great breakfast, nice staff

7.7

the best rooms are not smoker (maybe, it's better to improve the reservation system about that). The staff is delicious, especially Suzanne !

6.9

The taxi driver from the airport suggested we look for somewhere more central as the area and Hotel were poor in his opinion .... I'm happy to say he was totally wrong although we were a distance from the city centre. Breakfast and comfort were good and I would book there again.

8.7

This hotel was just what I was looking for. A nice retro atmosphere with that slightly 'lived in' feel. Loved the breakfast's and the staff were always willing to help. The one big surprise was the local area, I loved it. Extensive precincts with many interesting shops and a great supermarket which was a source of reasonably priced 'snack' food. In summary, the Kolbeck is not the Marriot, but I think it's a lot more fun.

Fantastic hotel, rooms huge, ultra modern in renovated ones, large beauftiful bathroom, even LCD flat panel TV, location a bit away from centere but does not matter since metro short walk along a pedestrian shopping street, breakfast was outstanding with large variety of foods almost like having in regular restaurant except buffet. I did not want to leave the hotel.

8.8

Good value accommadation close to Sudbahnhof and metro. Good budget room at back of the hotel was quiet. Breakfast was good.

8.9

Ein gutes Hotel. Der einzige Mangel ist nur, dass das Hotel keinen Aufzug hat; für gehbehinderte vielleicht ein kleines Problem.

3.9

Gute Lage, mit öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln schnell in der City. Das so hochgelobte Frühstück war Durchschnitt, das Personal im Frühstücksraum desinteressiert und lahm. Mangelhafte Reinigung des Badezimmers. Unappetitlich-durchgewetzte Duschwanne.

7.8

After hours check in was not easy. The reservation number contained letters, which did not work in the system to get the key.

7.6

Clean room, comfortable bed, good shower, friendly staff & good breakfast.

6.9

Très bon rapport qualité/prix pour un séjour individuel de quelques nuits. Chambre minuscule et assez ancienne. L'ensemble est minimaliste, mais propre et pas lugubre, même par temps de pluie.

The Kolbeck is a beautiful hotel, well situated a beautifully appointed large rooms. My room was on the front of the building right overlooking the tram stop on the main road, so the noise was deafening all night long and as there was no air con and not even a fan I had to leave the windows open all night. There is no lift which made it difficult with my heavy baggage. Breakfast was excellent, the staff helpful and welcoming, the building clean and beautifully maintained. I would just suggest to the management that the installation of even just a fan would make all the difference to the comfort of its guests. Even if they increased the tariff by 1 euro a day, it would pay for itself in a very short space of time. I hate to sound negative because other than the noise and heat problem, the hotel could not have been better. I would even go back knowing that I had to lug my bags up the steps, it was so nice there. Unfortunately however, I would not go back unless I knew that something had been done about the heat and the noise.

My first time in Vienna and I had a major problem locating hotel from Sudtiroler Platz metro station which has a number of exits and it was unclear from the map where the hotel was in relation to this metro station. Hotel Kolbeck is equidistant and MUCH easier to find from Keplerplatz metro station where there are only two exits in the same pedestrian street - as I recall take the exit at the rear of the train when arriving from central Vienna but I forget the name of this exit. Kolbeck offers good value for money close to a metro station a few stops from the centre of the City. The room and bathroom were very clean and had been refurbished recently although fairly basic and no toileteries were provided. There was a limited choice for the buffet style breakfast served from 0600 - 1000 although it was perfectly adequate unless you are intending to devour vast quantities to last you for rest of the day! After hours you have to let yourself in to the hotel with an electronic key card so do not forget to take it with you. There is free access to the internet via a PC in the foyer although on a first come first serve basis and this can be monopolised at times. Overall I would stay there again.

8.5

No lift but its closer to many locations. 5 mins with under ground train to the main train station. Good place to stay overall. One drwaback is it is not in the famous ringstrausee but can reach there by train in 3-4 mins.

8.2

Staff is friendly. Rooms are clean and spacious with a lot of light. My room was noisy (drill noise). Breakfast is average.

9.0

Hot water pressure in bathroom is weak (low). Very difficult to get a shower .

8.0

Great atmosphere...competent and friendly staff....amazing breakfast. All you can eat nutella, jams, and cheese! I am very happy and satisfied with the hotel and the service.

4.7

No soap

9.0

breakfast was very good, lots of various bread, cheese and sausage our room was good for 2 persons and my girlfriend was alone and had a good 2 persons room, very gentle!!

6.4

Wi-Fi service is only available in the other building. There is little sun light available in our hotel room. The service in the hotel is competent and peoples are friendly, so our stay there is satisfactory.

7.6

Nice and clean, but old hotel. Perfect for a cheap city trip.

9.4

The hotel was within walking distance of the south train and U-bahn stations. We encountered some problems at checkin with the code we were given. After several calls to the operator of the "automated night entry system", she took a taxi and got us checked in. Another couple came while we were waiting and were able to get inside with their information. We were told ours was a system problem. The passage way from the lobby to our room went outside through a courtyard that was rather unappealing and there was no elevator to our floor. All in all, the staff was courteous and friendly, the room was clean, breakfast was good and the location convenient. The hotel is located on a main street with a large pedestrian shopping area. The restaurant they recommended was next door and had excellent food at a most reasonable price. All in all, it was a pleasant stay and I would recommend the hotel and would return there again.

9.2

Very nice hotel near bus/metro station. Kind Employees , the room was clean and confortable; breakfast is very complete.Internet free for customers is really a good idea. I recommend this hotel. Hotel molto carino e vicinissimo a bus e metro (è comunque abbastanza centrale). Lo staf è gentile e preparato, la camera pulita e la prima colazione abbondante. L'uso gratuito di internet è una buona idea. Raccomandato

7.2

l'hotel si trova vicino a due fermate della metro e alla stazione. il personale è cortese. accesso a internet gratuito. peccato che sia senza ascensore e l'interno, non ristrutturato, è fatiscente.

8.0

Beautiful hotel close to public transportation and shops. The staff was wonderful and I enjoyed my stay. I will surely use this hotel again if I am staying in Vienna.

9.9

EXCELENTE, EL PERSONAL ES MUY AMABLE TE REGALAN LOS MAPAS Y TE EXPLICAN COMO LLEGAR A DONDE NECESITAS, TIENES INTERNET GRATIS. LAS HABITACIONES SON BASTANTE AMPLIAS, DE VERDAD MUY AMPLIAS. EL DESAYUNO MUY BUENO!!! EN LA PUERTA DEL HOTEL PASA UN BUS Y EL METRO ES A 5 MINUTOS CAMINANDO. DEL CENTRO DE AUSTRIA ESTAS COMO A 10 MINUTOS EN METRO, LO CUAL LA VERDAD NO ES NADA. SI TE RECOMIENDO QUEDARTE EN ESTE HOTEL NO TE ARREPENTIRAS. TODO EL PERSONAL ES MUY AMABLE CON LOS HUESPEDES. SIN DUDA ALGUNA REGRESO A ESTE HOTEL

8.1

I have stayed for five days in Hotel Kolbeck Vienna and I was gladly surprised especially for the kindness of personnel; they are providing many useful informations, they have always a good word for you and a big smile on their faces. The location is excelent. You can catch Tram 0 right in front of the hotel to go to Sudbanhof train station, or walk some 200 meters to the metro Line 1, three stops to center of the town. There´s a big shopping mall in the same Columbus Platz as well as a bar and restaurant. Not far is a McDonald. The room was clean, only doesn't have carpet on the floor (naked parchet only). The breakfast was very good. Overall price to quality is excelent! One more thing: doesn't have elevator and, around 2 or 3 pm a lot of noise from the refurbishing some other rooms. (the hotel still under renovation). But this will be finished in short time, I believe.Is quiet in night time and has Internet also.

I have stayed for three days in Hotel Kolbeck Vienna and I gladly surprised especially for the kindness of Kolbeck family that owns the Hotel that enforces into providing many useful informations. The location is excelent. You can catch Tram 0 right in front of the hotel to go to Sudbanhof train station, or walk some 200 meters to the metro. There´s a big shopping mall in the same Columbus Platz as well as a bar and restaurant. The room was spacious and clean. The breakfast was very good. Overall price to quality is excelent!

9.5

Extraordinary value for money

3.6

Very noisy, intolerably heated room, with a 1.5 square meter bathroom.

9.1

I had room 130 and this room is at the rear of the building and was quiet and obviously recently refurbished.The room although basic was clean and the bathroom had a good shower and soap provided,the breakfast was more than basic continental style.Easy to find from the metro. Would stay again and recommended for a value for money stay in Vienna.

9.7

Excellent room and facilities, recommend

9.8

Would certainly stay at this hotel again. Ideally located in relation to Wien Sudbahnhof and public transport to major sights and attractions. Lots of places to eat and drink close by. Good facilities, great breakfast and free internet. Recommended

9.5

The concierge was very nice and gave lots of useful info. Fluent in English. The location is suitable for people who want to save on cabs from/to airport. Within 10 min walking distance there is an airport shuttle bus stop (bus comes every 30 min.). The ride costs only 6 Euros! Walking distance to metro station. My (single) room was quite small, but it did not matter to me. No elevator. Smoking rooms. TV did not work, but I did not come to watch TV in Vienna! ;-), so it was minor for me. Wake-up service. Telephone. High-speed Internet at the lobby is a good plus. Absolutely clean. Had the window open the whole night-no noise whatsoever. Highly recommend for travelers on the budget.

9.1

Hotel Kolbeck was a pleasant surprise and of much better standard than we expected for a 2 star hotel, matching the 3 star hotels we stayed at in other towns in many respects. It is within easy walking distance of the Sudbahnhof and is located in a shopping precint just south of the old town, a few subway stops away. Our room was large and the bathroom had been recently renovated - renovations were obviously still underway in other parts of the hotel. The bed was clean and comfortable, with TV & hairdryer included. The carpets were the only thing that was a little less clean - more stained than dirty though. Our room was in an annex section of the hotel and involved walking up 2 steep flights of stairs with luggage. It overlooked the shopping/cafe area below, which was a little noisy as we had the windows open due to the heat, but not a problem if both sets of windows were closed. The breakfast buffet was also quite good, with a reasonable but simple selection and included in the price. Overall, we were very pleased with our stay and would stay there again next time we go to Vienna.

6.0

It is quite convenient but it is very noisy (even at night) because it is located next to a main road. The variety of breakfast is not enough. But the staff are very friendly and helpful.

5.9

The hotel is within walking distance of the train station but a bit further from the centre. We walked it once but it took about 30 minutes but there are trams and also a metro station near by. The room was very large but the old windows let a lot of noise in from the street. The breakfast was pretty standard. There were a couple of nice bars next door and also a supermarket/shopping centre.

5.6

first room we were offerred smelled musty and smokey.we were then offerred better accommodations. hotel is being renovated thus in disrepair .

8.3

Hotel Kolbeck was a convenient hotel - close to a U-bahn line and with free internet available off of the lobby. The staff was very friendly and helpful and generally spoke excellent English. Our room was somewhat oddly designed and the windows opened over the garbage receptacles (a bit smelly after a weekend) but it was far from traffic noises in the city. The breakfasts were perfectly adequate and the coffee was great!

5.1

Breakfast was good but the room was very average. It was small, and needed some DIY work. Esp. the toilet. It stopped up and the hotel didn't have the resources to fix it so we had to use the toilets in the hall

9.9

Easy to get to the train station & town centre even though it's on the edge of town. I would definitely stay here again.

8.3

The room was clean. The water was hot for the shower. The hotel is located 3 blocks from the subway station and 6 blocks from the South railway station. The hotel is located in a commercial area with a number of resturants close by. Breakfast was good. I would certainly stay at this hotel again.

9.8

The only thing that did not work out was that a friend of mine wanted to contact me by phone to apooint with me -- this message somehow was not kept although I asked for it before leaving the hotel at about 10 am and returning to it to get my luggage at around 3 pm.

10

Best hotel that we stayed at in all of Europe and the location was perfect. In addition, they serve a buffet break fast which was also the best we had in Europe. The location is only a ten minute walk from the main train station. Highly recommend this hotel for budget travellers.

9.6

Comodissimo Hotel per raggiungere ogni zona della città: stazione sud a soli 700 metri, metropolitana 200 metri, tram appena fuori dalla porta. hotel senza pretese, ma servizio impeccabile, deliziosa prima colazione; le camere spaziose, ma la moquette meriterebbe di essere sostituita! Eccezionale servizio Internet gratis alla reception! Unica "pecca" un cantiere di lavori proprio di fronte all'Hotel: inziano il turno alle 06.30! Tornero' nuovamente in questo Hotel, cosi come lo raccomando a chi soggiornerà a Vienna! Comfortable Hotel to reach every zone of Wien: South Railway station just 700 m. away; underground 200 m. and tram way just in front of main entrance. Easy going Hotel, but efficient service, really friendly, professional and helpfull staff; very clean and spacious rooms, even if the carpet should be replaced! Delicious breakfast! To point out free internet service at the reception. The only claim is a public refitting road yard just in front of the Hotel, starting shift at 6.30 a.m.!!! Anyway, I will stay at Kolbeck Hotel in the future again and I definitly suggest this Hotel to whom decide to go to Wien

7.8

il y avait 2 reservations de faites, 1 chambre double et 1 single. une erreur dans le mail qui communiquait le code d'entrée ... mais on a eu une réponse à l'interphone ! la single au dernier étage etait un peu petite mais propre et correct pour une nuit de passage. l'hotel est très propre et le petit déjeuner est très bien servi. l'indication pour arriver par le métro pourrait être plus claire, car avec des explications c 'est assez simple de trouver mais la nuit il n'y a pas beaucoup de monde dans les rues à viennent pour se faire renseigner.

7.5

Surrounding is under construction, thus the poor rating under surroundings. When construction is completed, things will improve. Rooms on the Favoriten street are noisy.
