A wonderful start to the year with the efficiency of the staff and check in was seamless. The room was clean spacious and had a top view of the Danube. The rooftop bar is amazing and cocktails were excellent. Great walking distance to old town Vienna and major transportation is mere steps away from the hotel lobby.

We’ve just returned from a lovely stay at So Vienna. We stayed in a So Comfy room which was a really good size. It’s a very modern hotel, which feels a little at odds with Vienna but was still really nice. Great breakfast, both buffet and cooked options with good choices and a long service time (until 11ish). Staff were really friendly, helpful and polite. They provided a pillow menu which was great. The hotel was a great location as well. Whilst over the canal it was so close to all main attractions and ideal when Vienna is such a walkable city. We would highly recommend staying here. Our only suggestion would be improved lighting in the rooms. The decor means they are naturally dark but there is no option to have a brighter light if needed, such as when applying makeup or packing your case. A minor thing overall however.
