Prize by Radisson, Vienna City
Great location - next to the train station: easy to get to airport or to take a train to a destination point. Also, not too far away from historical center. Room was clean and comfortable. Bed was also good. Blanket was a bit surprising - too small even for one. Staff on reception were nice and helpful. ...
