Leander made our stay here a wonderful one! As a host, I found Leander to be super friendly and always willing to help. I’m about to officially become a broken record, but I sincerely believe that the people you come across while traveling can really make or break your experience. However, I’m so glad he was able to meet us during our stay, because I don’t know that our experience would have been as memorable as it was had he not been! Note, that if he is not in town, a self-checkin option is available. We were lucky enough to meet with the host, Leander, for both check in and check out. If you want to take a closer look at what’s nearby, you can search the Wien Mitte station or Stadtpark on Google Maps and browse the area. Note that I’ve used the same maps as those used on Airbnb to maintain the owner’s privacy. I’ve included maps of the general area below to illustrate the location of the apartment. If you want to check out some of the great food/cafe options that are in the area (some of which were suggested by Leander), you can take a look at my Vienna story highlights on Instagram here. In my book, this is the ultimate experience, as the premise of Airbnb is to live like a local while traveling – here, you get to do just that. The surrounding neighbourhood is home to many local cafes, bars, restaurants and stores/shopping. It is in a very local area, so you essentially experience the city as a local. Oh, and the train has wifi! Win! Furthermore, metro lines U3 and U4 and buses and trams are very close by for those of you who are planning to use public transport.Īlthough this Airbnb listing is centrally located, it is on a quiet and safe street that is tucked away from the overcrowded tourist areas. As a side note, we ended up getting a two-for-one ticket deal, so it only ended up costing us a few euros each to take the train from the airport to the station. It is also just one block from Wien Mitte station (and Wien Mitte mall), making it super convenient for transferring from the airport. Furthermore, it is right across the street from the University of Music and Performing Arts. The apartment is in a building in an area that borders the first and third districts. It is very close to main destinations in the city, such as Stadtpark (few minutes’ walk), Karlsplatz, various museums and the opera, among other landmarks. This Airbnb apartment is so conveniently located that we were able to walk almost everywhere. I’ve provided a copy of the apartment’s layout below to give you a better idea of its design. Furthermore, the space overlooks the street and the green space directly across from it. The apartment’s high ceilings and large windows let in plenty of natural light, making the entire space very bright and airy. Furthermore, it is located on the second floor (there’s an elevator that opens up right in front of the entrance and stairs directly to the right of the entrance) of a period building. The apartment has a bedroom, a kitchenette, a bathroom and separate toilet room, a living area and dining space and a loft bed (accessible by a small set of stairs). Before getting into how much I like this listing, let’s dive into some specifics. **************************************** The Apartment + AmenitiesĪlthough my stay in Vienna was short, spending it in this this spacious, impeccably clean, fully furnished and well equipped Airbnb apartment made it extra sweet. Just a few minutes walk from Wien Mitte (Vienna’s main train station) and the popular Stadtpark, this bright and spacious Airbnb apartment is the perfect place for both short and long stays in the city.
