The Hotel Post is an older style of hotel and perhaps not as luxurious as some of the more modern hotels in the city, however, rooms are spotlessly clean, large, with usual features and more than good value for the price.

This hotel has got to be one of the best kept secrets when it comes to staying in Vienna. The city is so compact that it is easy to explore on foot and the family run Hotel Post is one of the most economic places to stay in the central Ring area of Vienna. You are less than 10 minutes walk from the Stefansdom, Kaerntnerstrasse and the Graben and there's a subway (U-Bahn) station - Schwedenplatz about 3 minutes from the hotel, as well as stops for numerous different tram-lines. So everything is within easy reach for tourists wanting to fit in as much as possible during their visit.

THE HOTEL
The Bristol Hotel is situated on the Kärtnerring ? the boulevard which circles the old centre of Vienna. The hotel is part of an imposing Victorian block, built originally as residences and minor palaces of the well-to-do. The reception area is approached through a revolving door from the street attended by doormen and porters dressed in maroon jackets and caps. The first impression is of subdued grandeur, with marble columns, dark wood panelling and crystal chandeliers. The hotel personnel are attired in formal dress giving at first sight a reserved frosty aura. On the right, immediately inside, is the concierge desk and beyond that the reception area. This ...
