Modest price for Spartan accomodations
This converted nursing home, that is now a hotel, is clean and in good repair. The staff was friendly and helpful. The room was about as Spartan as I have experienced. No TV, no clock or radio. No electrical outlet in the bathroom. The king bed was comfortable. It was provided with two twin-size comforters and two pillows. The fresh gray color paint on the walls of the room retained the institutional feeling of a nursing home. The price of the room was modest. So we were satisfied with our Spartan accomodations.

It was very stylish in a kitsch fashion yet with all modern facilities. Small details would make it even better. There was no coffee in the room but there was tea. It would be nice to have the option if I so desired.

A lovely stay at the Magdas. Would definitely go back. Nice room, very clean. Good shower. Excellent breakfast. Very well located in the Prater area. Interesting history, a beautiful park, excellent for a nice jog or walk. Loved the area. Easy access to trains and transit. The staff were very helpful and friendly. Nice lounge with grilled sandwiches available in the evening. Such a fabulous story to the hotel as well. Inspiring.

Would not recommend, too far from major attraction
I would not recommend this hostel unless you want to be close to the amusement park. Aside from the park, it is far from any major sites. It can be difficult getting into the city. Its basic and pricey for its location.

Dear James, thank you very much for taking your time and reviewing your stay at our hotel. We regret that your stay was not as expected. For next time, we would kindly ask you to ask at reception about how to best get to the city, as the central Stephansdom is just 2 metro stations away (Praterstern located within 5 minutes walking distance) and the Schwedenplatz is 15 minutes walking distance. Best regards, your magdas hotel.

It's fine but probably I will not book it again
It is a pretty little hotel with unique decoration. But the neighborhood is not feel like safety and if you want to take the metro or bus you need to walk more than 15 minutes (with that neighborhood it feels more than that), the bed is not comfortable and the menu in the coffee bar is more for vegans. The staff very friendly

Not as pictured
Definitely not value for money. Hotel is not like in the pictures, it may have been when it was first built but it’s in need of a good clean. Bedding and towels where clean but the chair in the room was dirty as were the carpets. I asked for a kettle to make up a babies bottle, the kettle was had liquid already in it and was dirty. Not a chance I would use it to make a drink for my self never mind a baby.

Pleasant, nice balcony.
Overall it was a pleasant stay. The room had a nice balcony and very comfortable bed. The lack of air conditioning in the hot Vienna Summer was a bit of a problem. You are provided with a good fan, which you needed. However although it didn't worry me it was a bit noisy and sometimes kept my wife awake at night. The shower and bathroom was OK but a bit basic
