I have chosen this accommodation for my New Year stay and enjoyed it. It was my first experience staying in a hostel, but Vienna Boutique is more than a hostel. Even some hotels cannot provide such high-quality service as the hostel does. Each corner of the hostel was spotless; everyday cleaning service was available. The owners and the staff were extremely kind and open to help you whenever needed. I was pleased to meet Vic, one of the hostel's owners. He is an intelligent and kind personality. The hostel has a well-furnished common area which was decorated for Holidays. I was astonished to see a lovely postcard, chocolate and a traditional Austrian charm upon my return to my room in NY evening. It is an excellent accommodation which is worthy of Vienna.

I liked the cleanliness and the spaciousness of the room, the social areas are magnificent and the staff was very nice and friendly, they even offered some advice on how to get around the city. I liked the music from the DJ on Friday night and it was fantastic that it did not disturb the rest of the guests in their rooms.

It is one hostel! And I had once experience in one other hostel in Vienna.. that’s why I can say this hostel is really good, convenient, has all what you need, and that they provide breakfast is really good idea. Because I stayed for one night, early morning was Sunday and as we know a lot of places and supermarkets are closed. But having breakfast on that place was cute, just better to go earlier(that I did) later n the last hour are coming a lot of people.

It was sooo much better than what we expected!! It is brand new (even though the entrance is a bit suspicious) just open the door and get ready to be be mind blown. The bathrooms were always clean and the kitchen was also top notch. Need to mention that the housekeeper was always nice and spoke very good English as well. A very short walk away from the main shopping street (5’-10’) and also a metro station is just 7’ walk away.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Great student accommodation, certainly beats a hostel. Clean, with really friendly staff. Centrally located with great restaurants and bars in the area. If you just need a cheap, clean and safe somewhere to put your head down, this is well worth a look

    The hostel was easy to get to from the metro station, there are also trams nearby. Locality seems quite safe, and active even after hours of the day. The hostel is well kept, even the common area, you may even plug in and work peacefully if your on a working holiday, for the digital nomads 😀. The breakfast was a big spread with many options and quality. Overall, I highly recommend if you are looking for a good yet budget friendly accommodation.

    Best hostel I've stayed at yet. Comfortable spacious rooms (with chairs!) and the nightly pay-what-you-can dinner made it super easy to meet other travellers. Met a lot of cool people to explore the city with, and was able to fall asleep at 10pm no problem if I wanted to. If you stay anywhere else in Vienna you're a fool. And cheap beer!

    One of the best hostels I've ever been to but also one of the cheapest as well so it's a fantastic value for money! The staff was very kind and helpful. The rooms are clean, big and have a separate bathroom and toilet which makes things so much easier! The hostel also has a bar that works during the night, where you can also play pool, beer-pong etc. so it's a great place to meet new people as well.

    Great location close to a lot of cool bars and restaurants. Such a cozy lobby where it was nice to hang out both alone and with friends. The hostel bar was AMAZING and I ended up staying there a lot of the nights instead of going out. Great place to meet new people!! Also the people at the reception were so nice and welcoming! Great beds and free lockers. Absolutely the best hostel I've ever been to.
