A discreete elegance of the room was the first image. A very good bed, a large bathroom with high quality ammenities and a rich breakfast characterize the pink room I received. But the highest quality was the staff. Patricia, at the reception desk, was a very special person: helpful, friendly and efficient. The location is not very central but there are trams and the underground directly to the city centre. The streets around are quiet and you can sleep with the window open. Small restaurants and cafes are all around as well as supermarkets.

The lobby could be a little larger.

Lovely host, friendly and helpful, even had some toys for our daughter to play with. Comfortable rooms, quirky hallways, tasty breakfast.

No air-conditioning in the rooms but we did have a fan. In all fairness aircon is probably not needed 99% of the time, we just happened to stay during the hottest week of summer. :D

We spent a wonderful Time in Schwalbe Hotel, we we got a room upgrade and stay in a very charming apartment. The breakfast was very good. The host is always there for you with all kind of usefull information: where to go, eat, etc., she s a very nice person.

We loved the personal touches at Hotel Schwalbe. The place is run by a lovely family and the attention you get is exceptional. Our room was spacious and bright and there was even a little kitchen with gorgeous dishes, vintage glasses and a coffee maker. Breakfast is lovely too, don't miss out on it. The owner is around pretty much every day and if you feel like a little chat, she'll tell you about the history of this charming Hotel and give you tipps on where to go.

There is no AC. It wasn't a big problem but if it's very hot outside, maybe not so ideal.

The room was big, well actually maybe its more we can call an apt. It has 2 bedrooms, separate room toilet and shower. My 12yo daughter in her own bedroom and she was so pleased. Staffs are super friendly and mostly they can speak English. Location is also easy to reach from the airport. Just use City Airport Train from Airport until Landstraße, change to U3 to Ottakring direction and you are off until the last station. Walk for about 400m, you reach the hotel. Very easy. And when we wanted to walk around the city, just take the U3 and you are good to go to the main city center, old city center ect. Breakfast is traditional German breakfast, with Brötchen, Schinken, eggs, yogurt, juices, tea or coffee. Its so homey there. It feels like coming to Oma's house with some antique furniture around. When we left, we also got a little souvenir, a snowglobe!! I recommend this hotel to anyone who will go to vienna. You will not regret it.

The only thing that I dont like is the pillow, too thin for my liking

Absolutely loved my stay at Hotel Schwalbe! From the moment I arrived, I was enveloped in a sense of warmth and personalized attention. The nice decor, incredibly comfortable room, and delicious breakfast were just the beginning. What truly set this boutique hotel apart was the exceptional service – the staff went above and beyond to make my experience truly memorable. Keep on!

Love it!! Retro, classic and clean. I spent five very laidback night here. It seems to be operated by a small crew of very sweet ladies, who also prepares the nicest breakfast and does the cleaning exceptionally speedy. Thank you all for providing me with such a warm and memorable stay, I had the best new year holiday for my first visit to Vienna.

Sound proof could be a bit better but it’s inevitable for properties with some age. But it didn’t bother us too much!

Spacious room, nice service, good breakfast (possibility of getting fresh scrambled eggs on request), separate toilet in room. Slippers for guests in the room were a nice surprise. The hotel has its own style.

With the window open it's quite loud. It's a little bit too soft mattress but it's a matter of personal preferences.

Exceptional attention to detail - rooms decoration, accessories, quality of food and beverages, staff. Good value for money.

There is nothing to say about that.

The staff was very pleasant. The breakfasts were delicious. The room was very nice and clean. As it is an old building, it does not have air conditioning.

Note that the hotel is not in central Vienna. Expect Uber/taxi charges to the tourist areas.
