Hotel Regina

Grand old building in great location but in desperate need of updating: e.g., no proprietary WiFi (really?!), no electrical outlets by bedside for iPhone/Ipad, antique hair dryer etc etc — and the solemn presentation of one coupon for one complimentary coffee for a 4 night stay was derisory (don’t bother! Fawlty Towers anyone?). Shame

Much less the 21st. Only WiFi available was free connection available in any cafe. Slooooow and not secure. Hotel caters to business travelers so really don’t understand. Bathroom carved out of a corner of the room, with an unlighted step up, to get to toilet you had to shimmy around a towel rack. That said, fantastic location, staff very accommodating.

We spent three nights at Hotel Regina. It was everything I wanted and more. I went to Vienna because I wanted to feel like I was in an quiet place in the spring. I wanted to feel like I was in Vienna. Hotel Regina was perfect for that. When we got there it felt like we stepped back in time. Our room was really nice. It was big and had beautiful interior design. It was also very comfortable. One thing that made it special was the piano in the room. It made the whole experience feel unique and personal. The best part was the balcony. From the balcony we could see Votive Church clearly. It was next to the hotel. We could see it up close not from away. It felt like we were part of it. Drinking coffee on the balcony in the morning looking at the church and the quiet neighborhood was one of the best parts of our trip. I loved this part of Vienna. It is so beautiful and quiet. Being close to the church made it feel more magical. The hotel is well taken care of. The bathrooms are modern and clean. Everything feels new and fresh. Breakfast was exceptional. A truly high-quality European breakfast with a wide selection of premium cheeses, fine meats, and traditional dishes. We liked sitting outside the hotel with a coffee and looking at the church and the park. We also had a wonderful Wiener Schnitzel for dinner at the hotel’s restaurant, which was perfectly prepared and beautifully served. The staff was wonderful. They were kind and welcoming. As a Croatian guest, it was such a lovely surprise to meet staff members who spoke Croatian, which made the experience feel even warmer and more personal. Overall, this stay felt like stepping into a different time. We are already looking forward to coming back and would wholeheartedly recommend this hotel if you want a nice and quiet place to stay in Vienna.
