Perfect position close to all landmarks. The breakfast amazing. Veronika who runs the place was lovely and friendly and she also allowed me to check in early. Wish I could have stayed longer as 2 nights Vienna not enough to see all the sights.

I am giving this place 5 stars because it is what it says it is. A good value pension in a great location of the old town of Vienna. The rooms are basic but clean and have the necessities. Our room, 106, had a private bathroom with shower. A car would be difficult to have at this location. But it's perfect for the lightweight luggage public transportation travelor. There is street noise in the big city so expect that. The owner is pleasant, helpful, and puts out a nice brunch every morning. This place is great for the budget travelor as Vienna can be quite expensive.

Good all around

Nice vaulted ceilings, spacious room, great location right next door to the best taco/burrito shop in Vienna. Didn't like how the bed was just two twin beds put together, but they probably have other rooms with real double beds. It's a bit hard to find, you have to walk through an apartment building entrance, but not that big of a deal.

Bad start to the stay

Our stay at the Pension Lerner did not get off to a good start, we arrived at the hotel to find that we couldn't get into the reception. We had notified the hotel that we would be arriving early 7.30am and were told that there would be someone on reception from 7.15am so that wasn't a problem. The hotel is located inside a building with other businesses, there is a door that is locked outside of usual business hours which you require a key to get into. As we hadnt checked in yet we didnt have access to the inside of the building so we had to go a nearby cafe where we stayed for an hour, I phoned repeatedly with no reply, eventually we got inside the building only to find we couldnt get inside the actual hotel. We sat outside the door for another hour before a hotel guest left and we eventually got inside only to find there were no staff anywhere to be found. Guests were wandering around the breakfast area looking for food and left to fend for themselves. Another half hour passes and eventually a staff member (possibly the owner) arrived, she was very appologetic and explained an illness had meant no one was there to man the reception. Apart from the bad start the rest of the stay passed without incident, breakfast was ok and the location was quiet and within walking distance of the centre and attractions. Bedroom was comfortable and clean but could do with a bit of a makeover. Free wifi which is a good bonus and fan in the room which was great for hot days.

Nice hotel close to city center in district 1

Picked this hotel because it was in the center of Vienna close to the ring among other things. Hotel was slightly hard to find as the address brings you to the lower street and you have to walk up the stairs and around the corner to find the entrance. This hotel is set up more like apartments. You get a key upon arrival to let yourself into the building and then another to allow you into the hotel entrance. Staff was extremely nice and helpful. We had an early train and they left us a variety of breakfast items in the fridge. Overall a good stay especially for the the price and location
