Rosa Linde - Comfort B&B

Vienna

We spent 5 nights in the Godel apartment in September.  The apartment was very large with high ceilings.  The furniture and bed were comfortable, and there was plenty of light.  There was a washing machine in the bathroom and a big drying rack.  We brought the rack out onto the balcony to speed up the drying process.  The kitchen was fitted with everything you need, fridge, dishwasher, French press, toaster.  They even left us some coffee, sugar, and tea bags.
The location was so convenient.  Subway was a short walk away.  There were many restaurants and shops in walking distance, also some supermarkets.
There was a book in the apartment giving you all the FAQ, that was very helpful.

Godel apartment was great!

We had four nights here early May. The appartment is large, quiet, spotlessly clean, attractively furmished, the bed is large and comfortable, the kitchen is well equiped, the ceilings are high and access is by an old fashioned cage lift that looks like it's from some old thriller film. There is even a small terrace.
The flat is well situated, as town centre is at most twenty minutes' walk, the subway station is quite close and it is also near to a bus that takes you most of the way to the Belvedere Palace. There are plenty of shops, cafes and restaurants nearby, so food and drink was never a problem. It was a pleasure walking round the adjacent streets at night, admiring the beautiful, carefully constructed and illuminated window displays in shops so small and specialised that one wonders how they make a living.
Everything worked fine, from the kitchen appliances, to the heating to the cable TV. 
If we return one day to Vienna, this is most definitely where we would stay.

Godel appartment

There are actually 3 apartments under the Rosa Linde banner, and this is not made clear enough. The majority of pictures show the more spacious suites, and this is misleading. We stayed in the Godel flat, which is not as impressive as the pictures. It is though in a very good location close to amenities and the underground.

On the first morning (a Monday) we were awakened at 6am by very loud banging and crashing noises which persisted for 20 mins or so. It turned out this was the bin men who have about a dozen bins to empty. The flat looks out over a canyon of a back yard which acts as an echo chamber for the slightest noise.

The noise was more of a problem because we had to keep the balcony door open as the air conditioning didn't work, and the temperature was stifling. Karl kindly came out to try and rectify this, but it failed again straight after he left.

The breakfast vouchers were just for a reduction on a fairly spartan continental breakfast which was overpriced anyway. We found that croissants from the nearby Spar shop were a much better answer.

I couldn't get the 'smart' TV to access internet services, and there were no instructions provided. It was virtually useless to us with all the prompts in German.

Overall I would say that although Sarah in the office below does a good job, this flat suffers from absentee landlordism.

Nice apartment but a number of let-downs

Hard to write a review: rooms were super clean, spacious, and comfortable.  In addition to individual bedroom suites, guests have access to a shared kitchen.  The location is excellent - close to everything in Vienna in Neubau, recognized as one of the more affordable districts.  The property managers all speak excellent English.  They provided a laundry service.   We'd give them a 5* rating for the room.

Oh, but.  It's advertised and sold as a bed and breakfast, yet there's no breakfast.  Big disappointment because the property underdelivered on a clear mandate.  The room rate was not discounted.  We were offered 20% off vouchers to a nearby restaurant, but there are better value cafes just 25m down the street.  

If you're looking for lovely rooms, take it.   If you're looking for a bed and breakfast experience, don't.

Bed and breakfast without breakfast

The apartment is quite close to the city centre (20 minutes or so walking) and has, close by, a range of good eating places. We are vegan and found it easy - 50 metres from the front door was a good eating restaurant and by the end of the week we had found quite a number.  The nearest Underground station is 5 minutes away which makes travelling around the city really easy - the trains come at 5 minute intervals.  The apartment "Freud" is spacious and scrupulously clean, on the third floor of an 'Edwardian' building, served by a lift. The entrance to the building is rather unloved but the apartment and its hallway was immaculate.  Our room was cleaned as frequently as we wanted and even wine glasses appeared when our cleaner realised we were using tumblers from the bath-room! The room had a gracious, antique feel, the shower-room a smart, eclectic, modern look.  Staying there was a very enjoyable part of a city break.

Comfortable, convenient.

What an amazing apartment, very comfortable, clean and neat and cozy, the apartment is spacious and the bathroom is really good. Perfect location everything you need from restaurants and shopping area just next to you. Thank you for your hospitality. 

Amazing apartment 

We stayed 3 nights in the superior double room for 60eur/night (in January). For that price I was very impressed with the quality of the amenities. The room is very beautiful, high ceilings, modern bathroom, comfortable bed. The location was very convenient. Can’t comment on breakfast as we ate outside every day. Overall I thoroughly recommend staying at Rosa Linde, especially for independent travellers who don’t need much contact/tips from the hotel staff. 

@management: connecting to your Wi-Fi wasn’t very easy. I managed on my own after a while but I’d recommend changing your settings to make it easier. 

Great value for money 

Rosa Linde was just the place we needed during our visit to Vienna.  My wife and I had a few objectives value for money and to stay close to the city center. Understanding that we didn't need a full service place like a hotel we went for this one.  

Upon checking in Paul was so kind in helping give us recommendations on what to see in the city, since we arrived very early in the morning and were able to leave our luggage and go sightseeing right away so we did not have to waste any time checking in again. Upon going to visit neighboring countries and returning to Vienna Paul was also so nice to keep one of our luggage.

The location was very near to the U-bahn underground station which is connected to the Mariahilferstrasse walking street which is full of cafes and shops.  The station is a couple of stops away from the main ring road which has all the different museums. 

Overall Rosa Linde was a friendly and cozy place, clean (while not expecting too many amenities) and best location for museum visits.

Cozy stay and friendly hospitality right at the heart of Vienna

Stayed 2 nights in Freud room. Absolutely lovely. Antique furnishings and chandeliers combined with modern comforts. Great shopping and dining. Spotlessly clean. Easy to get everywhere in city. Wish we would have stayed longer.
