Big, clean rooms and a fantastic, friendly staff! Breakfast is included (rare in Viennese hostels), common area to hang out & plan your day, great location and pretty affordable. The location is great! Near to Westbanhof station, restaurants, shops and bars. They give you a very useful map when you check in too which has the sights, bars and restaurants... More

Me and my two friends stayed here for 4 nights in July. We stayed in a 12 bed dorm which was definitely an experience. The service was fine, i have read the other reviews about the service, but we personally didn't have any problems. The room we stayed in was clean the lockers were big but be warned you do... More

Hostel is in a great location. Rooms were fine. Staff were dreadful, v unhelpful. Unable / unwilling to answer v basic questions. Acted like they were stoned half the time. If the staff were good, hostel would be great.

Stayed in a mixed dorm with a friend. The room and beds were okay. Great location--walking distance from the train station and the shopping area. Breakfast was simple but all-you-can-eat so it was okay. Had a bad experience though with the staff and lockers-- my locker was broken and when I went down to the guy at the reception area... More

Only stayed one night but seemed very nice - the dorm was a good size and there were big lockers for each bed. The beds were comfy and the bathroom was big and clean. There was a common room downstairs and people seemed friendly, but the kitchen seemed limited to a microwave, kettle and sink. Also breakfast was quite basic... More

So this service was only really the bad thing at this place. I had to wait 15-20 min to get checked in because reception was counting money and just couldn't put down even though there were people waiting. But he was really good after in helping out and being friendly...really need more than one person to help at the desk.... More

Things seemed OK, till my key went missing. Staff demanded 40 euro as the cost for a replacement key. I thought this was unjustified, told them so, and I asked to see some evidence that this was a valid cost for a replacement key - if so, I would pay. I was told they would not provide any evidence. Staff... More

We were 7 Malaysians who stayed at the Westend City Hostel for 4 nights i.e. 24 to 28 august 2008. Although it was a 7-bedded room with en suite facilities, it was comfortable enough at Euro 21.50, but the breakfast was disappointing - with only cheap rolls with no ham or eggs (had to pay for this). although it was...

My weekend getaway with my three friends in Vienna was great. We stayed in Westend City Hostel one night. Location was GOOD. Cleanliness was AVERAGE. Breakfast was VERY GOOD. Price was HIGH. (but i think it was worth) Security was VERY GOOD. RECOMMENDED!

Stayed here recently with a group of fellow students during our school trip for 8 nights. Typical hostel, fairly clean though and the staff was great--cute guys!! Breakfast was a bit dry, could use better coffee, I mean it's Vienna for crying out loud..Anyway would stay here again, prices and location were ideal!
