The Hotel Josefhof is in a great location for all the Vienna sights, close enough to be walkable, but far enough away as not to be noisy. Our room was very quiet, comfortable and well appointed. The staff members were very helpful. The bar and lounges are on the small side.

The hotel was amazing and had one of the best breakfasts I have ever had. Its location was excellent, just a 14-minute walk from both the Rose Garden and the Hofburg. The staff were incredibly helpful, especially Luca, Florian, and Annalena, who made our stay even more enjoyable. I would highly recommend this hotel and would gladly stay here again.
