Picolo recommends · Hotel in Vienna, Austria
Hotel Beethoven Wien
A family-run hotel beside the Theater an der Wien, where the Naschmarkt food stalls start just over the street.
Hotel Beethoven sits on Papagenogasse, a short street named after the bird-catcher in Mozart's Magic Flute, which premiered at the theatre next door. The house is run by a family, and each floor has been given its own theme.
The Naschmarkt, Vienna's long open-air market of fruit, spices and small restaurants, starts across the road. Guests are invited to wine evenings in the salon, and the Opera and Karlsplatz are within walking distance.
Picolo’s verdict
Why we chose Hotel Beethoven Wien
This is our value pick in Vienna. You get a central address, a personal welcome and a breakfast guests often praise, at a price well below the grand hotels on the Ring.
There is no spa or full-service bar, and the street gets busy on Saturdays when the Naschmarkt flea market sets up. If you want round-the-clock service and a quiet morning, look elsewhere.
What you get
- Family-run with themed floors
- Breakfast that guests rate highly
- The Naschmarkt across the street
- Wine evenings in the salon
- Classic, comfortable rooms
