Tastefully renovated historic building.

Family-operated, carefully renovated building of interesting history and furnishings. We enjoyed an outstanding breakfast and found attentive staff to demonstrate classic Austrian hospitality. A neighborhood restaurant suggested to us served delicious Vienna food at a reasonable price. The Scwalbe is a quiet, comfortable hotel easily accessible by the efficient publics transportation system, even though first glance might seem to indicate that the hotel's location is far from town. Not so! A good choice for vacationers, families, business clients or students.

Friendly family hotel in pleasant residential area

Friendly warm welcome. Room was cleaned and towels changed daily. The hotel has a slight quirkiness in that the dining room had some theatrical attributes. Traditional old building with great character. The breakfast was superb each day, comprising fresh fruits, cereals, yoghurts, cold meats, smoked salmon, a choice of scrambled or boiled eggs and a basket of bread rolls and croissants, butter and local jams. We booked through Expedia thus making a saving but the room was on the third (top) floor. We had a small annex as we entered the room with a dining table laid with glasses and bottle opener, tiled floor, shower and hand basin before entering a second door into the bedroom itself. This was carpeted, light and airy and very spacious. The toilets were across the landing but we were the only people on that floor and did not meet anyone else throughout our stay. Our son and family booked directly and paid more, had a cot provided for the baby and a traditional en suite room with complimentary slippers.

Nice Hotel in strange part of town

This hotel is quite a gem, in a neighborhood where you wouldn't expect a hotel at all. It's located a bit away from the downtown ring strasse's, but it's a two block walk to the subway, and then a ten minute subway ride to the heart of town. Once you master the subway system, you're set. Hotel breakfast is quite an elegant affair, with cut fruit, pastries, coffee's, cheeses, etc. in a nice dining room. Bedding is the epitime of German comfort, with a nice thick down comforter. Great value for your money. I had reserved a single room with a shared bath, but when I arrived, all that was left was a room with a private bath which was great.

was ok!

It wasn't that I was unhappy with this room, but I wasn't thrilled either. It was an easy 10 min walk to the train station which could get you to West Bahnhoff in about 4 stops or so, which was great, but other than that I have very many mixed feelings about this place. It just felt a little odd, but for one night, I'm not gonna complain too much. And it wasn't that bad. The room was big enough, no a/c, shower was too small, but the room was clean. Was just odd.

Cozy hotel runs by Family

If you want to experience real Austrian housing, try this hotel that was built about 1900s. It's run by a friendly family who is very helpful and hospitable. Our stay is very pleasant. Even though it's little far from the city center, last stop of the train, and have to walk another 10-15 mins to the hotel, yet I felt I was really experiencing Austrian life instead of just a tourist. Very nice breakfast that's included in the price. Different kinds of ham, cheese, bread, juice....feel real Austrian daily life. We didn't see many foreigners in the restaurant. I guess mostly local. That's nice cause we wanted to experience Viennese. The only thing I would suggest is to keep the drainage better condition. Water wasn't going through well in the shower and sink. But we didn't mind very much cause that's normal to an old building. Yet it's a hotel, Schwalbe will be perfect if they can maintain it well. O, they gave us little surprising treats when we left. So nice...

Renovierungsbedürftig, aber Preis/Leistung OK!

Das Hotel liegt in Ottakring, etwas außerhalb. Eine halbe Stunde muss man für den Weg in die Stadtmitte schon einplanen. Als wir ankamen, sahen wir schon von weitem, dass das Haus eingerüstet war. Die Fassade wird erneuert, voraussichtlich bis Ende des Jahres. Daher standen dann bei uns morgens um 7 Arbeiter im 2. Stock vor unserem Fenster auf dem Gerüst und begannen mit ihrer Arbeit. Gleichzeitig fanden noch Straßenbauarbeiten statt. Wir waren aber nicht in Wien, um auszuschlafen, sondern etwas von der Stadt zu sehen. Am Wochenende arbeitete dann sowieso niemand, und nachts war es ruhig, und man konnte gut schlafen. Unser Zimmer befand sich im zweiten Stock. In einem Vorraum waren ein Tisch, zwei Stühle, Waschbecken und Dusche, PVC-Boden, Aufputzrohre, keine Lüftung. Das eigentliche Zimmer war groß, Kleiderschrank, Doppelbett (sehr harte Matratze), Sofa, Fernseher. Die gesamte 2. Etage (5 oder 6 Zimmer) teilen sich 2 Toiletten auf dem Flur! Diese Etage würde ich als arg renovierungsbedürftig bezeichnen. Bis in die 1. Etage ist die Treppe gefliest und ordentlich, in den zweiten Stock führt nur noch eine ausgetretene Steintreppe. Es war aber alles sauber! Das Frühstück war sehr gut: Brötchen, Brot, Müsli, Wurst, Schinken, Käse, frisches Obst, Orangensaft frisch gepresst, wir bekamen sehr leckeren Kakao und Rührei. Wirtin und Personal sind nett und freundlich. Für den Preis, den wir bezahlt haben (Hin-/Rückflug Hannover/Wien, 4 ÜF 265 € p.P. absolut ok! Daher Empfehlung!

Ideal für Städtebummler

Wir hatten das Hotel über Silvester hinweg für vier Nächte gebucht. Bereits positiv fiel bei der Anreise auf, dass das Hotel exzellent mit der U-Bahn-Linie 3 zu erreichen ist, sei es vom Bahnhof oder Flughafen aus. Umgekehrt ist man von dort aus nicht nur in wenigen Minuten mit den alle 5-8 Minuten fahrenden Zügen in der Innenstadt, sondern auch über weitere Linien schnell an weiteren Sehenswürdigkeiten wie z.B. Schloss Schönnbrunn, so dass die Lage sehr gut für Städtereisende geeignet ist. Besonders gut hat uns der freundliche Service in familiärer Atmospähre gefallen - man wurde wirklich rührend umsorgt, egal ob beim leckeren Frühstück oder bei der Planung der jeweiligen Ausflüge. Hier macht sich bezahlt, dass die Inhaberinnen nicht nur viele Insidertipps geben können, sondern wirklich an einem für den Gast optimalen Aufenthalt interessiert sind. Die Zimmer an sich sind sehr gemütlich und passen hervorragend in das urige Ambiente dieses Hotels. Dennoch fehlt es nicht an der Ausstattung: Vom Flatscreen über kostenfreies WLAN bis hin zum Föhn mangelt es an nichts. Uns hat der Aufenthalt so gut gefallen, dass das Hotel Schwalbe bei künftigen Wienaufenthalten erste Wahl sein wird.
