SO/ Vienna

One of the best hotels in Vienna. Great view of the City. Super Quiet. Nice modern room with darkening sliding walls that block out all light. Top floor restaurant gives great view and fine food. Excellent service. Conveniently located.

Amazing views overlooking the city from the room and the rooftop restaurant. The art of the roof is very eye catching. Great location. Breakfast buffet was nice. All the staff were pleasant, smiling and helpful. David at the restaurant, Marie and Nenard at the front desk were excellent, and so were others, I don’t remember all the names.

On arrival my friend and I were most warmly welcomed by the young lady on reception who also gave an excellent overview of what the hotel provides. Any requests made were delivered promptly by very friendly housekeeping staff. The room surpassed my expectations. We had a double double room which was super spacious and as expected, the beds so comfortable. Fantastic views of the Ferris wheel from our room which was lit up at night. The breakfast was delicious and the views from the top floor dining…..breathtaking. We were fortunate to have almost a week here and the hotel location was fabulous. So close to the river, shops and amazing cafes. Train and bus stops were also a few minutes walk away Would like the heartists at So to know how special they made our stay. This was a memorable stay.

We stayed here Friday to Sunday as a couple. The whole experience was just perfect from start to finish. The hotel is perfectly located just over the bridge from Inner Stadt with an easy walk to St Stephens in the centre. Additionally trams and U Bahn are 2mins from entrance. At check-in were greeted in the lovely lobby by friendly and professional staff and given a room on the 17th floor. Special thanks to Stefanie Fahsler for arranging a nice room for us. The room was beautiful, clean and well appointed with everything we need including a free mini bar with water, juices, crisps and a chocolate bar. The bed was super comfortable with lovely bedding. Shower and Bath were really good and everything was like new. Added bonus, they provide a Bose sound wave system in the room that was easy to connect music too. The rooftop bar is spectacular with the best views across Vienna. There is a really cool vibe in there and again the drinks and the service staff were just superb. We didn’t use the spa but it looked really lovely. When leaving, check out was quick and easy and special thanks to the French gentleman (sorry I didn’t get his name) who helped us with taxi and luggage he was a great guy! Thank you to all the staff at SO. This hotel should get great credit from Accor Group. It is the perfect place to stay when coming to Vienna.

Booked this hotel through Amex which I highly recommend to anyone where this is possible. Our room was the biggest and most well stocked room I have ever stayed in. All the in-room amenities you could want, they provided. The view over Vienna is amazing from the bedroom and even better from the restaurant. The staff were so lovely and made the experience feel even more luxurious. Breakfast every morning was very extensive. One thing I'd suggest is to make sure that the breakfast layout is explained when you first sit down. We only had this explained on our last day which was a bit of a shame! But with the extensive menu that you're given it didn't make the breakfast any less satisfactory. We went up to the bar every night and the staff very helpful in finding a seat/ table. On the Saturday and Sunday it was extremely hard to find a table, we were happy to stand at the bar but a member of staff came to find us and walked us to a table when it was free, which was really appreciated. The list of cocktails and wine was great and we actually had food in the bar which I really recommend. The whole ambience of the hotel is so nice. It feel luxurious but also so friendly. I really recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Vienna, even if only to go to the bar, as the view from there is a must see!
