The hotel rooms had some issues with maintenance, like damaged blinds and a difficult bathroom door, giving it a bit of a college dorm feel. The building location was inconvenient and misrepresented as it had a view of a busy staircase. However, the location was excellent, close to downtown, with easy access to attractions and dining options.

I stayed at this hotel and found it to have a good location with easy access to the city and was very quiet for a peaceful night's sleep. The rooms were well-equipped with a percolator, kettle, small refrigerator, stove, and plenty of dishes, but some aspects looked tired, such as doors not closing properly and dated furnishings. The service, while cooperative and polite, could benefit from more accurate information and training. The dining experience offered an excellent selection of fresh fruit, bread, and meat but lacked variety in warm dishes. The facilities were decent overall.

I found the hotel to be centrally located, with easy access to markets, restaurants, and bars. However, the room had a view of a staircase that was quite noisy with people going up and down day and night. The service was polite but could use some improvement in terms of training and providing accurate information to guests. The dining experience was below average, especially for a longer stay.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were equipped with useful amenities like a percolator, kettle, small refrigerator, and stove, but they were a bit worn with stained carpets. It was disappointing that my friend’s double room seemed better than mine despite paying the same amount.

When I arrived at The Carlton Suites, I found the rooms a bit damp, but once inside, they were indeed quiet, comfortable, and clean. The service, especially for extra person accommodation, was friendly and helpful, although directions were a bit lacking. The location was excellent, close to the city center, Nachtmarkts, and Naschmarkt Vienna, with the added bonus of efficient air conditioning. However, the dining experience for vegetarians fell short compared to similar hotels, but the facilities were satisfactory overall.

Our family had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms, although clean and comfortable, felt a bit confined like prison cells. On the bright side, we enjoyed the amazing views and access to the rooftop. The service was friendly, but the strong smell of smoke near the front desk was off-putting. The location was convenient, with easy access to local attractions, but the dining experience left something to be desired in a dingy basement setting.

The hotel rooms were comfortable and well air-conditioned, providing a quiet and spacious stay at a reasonable price. The service was fantastic with very friendly and helpful staff. The location was ideal for exploring Vienna being right next to an U-bahn stop and within walking distance to key attractions. The dining experience offered enough variety to satisfy guests, though some felt it lacked a toaster for gluten-free options. Overall, a great stay with a few minor areas for improvement.
