Grand Ferdinand

"Nice rooms with of touch of ancient Vienna. The restaurant at the 8th floor has a very nice view, and early breakfast with view of Vienna is recommended. The main restaurants, both the restaurant at the grounfloor and the restaurant at the 8th floor tends to be busy during main dinner hours. However, strange to observe that the stairs between the floors was in concrete without any attempt to invite the guests to use the stairs."

"The hotel is beautiful and clean. The people are friendly. The breakfast is very tasty and you are greeted kindly. Down there is a restaurant where they serve schnitzels, but unfortunately there is no door. So the smell goes through the hallway, reception, through the whole hotel. Luckily the rooms don't smell, but the whole hotel smells of fries grease. We were present with our dog. We had to pay €30/night for this, so a total of €90. This is for the acquisition, a basket and a food container. When we checked in, they asked us if we wanted a basket and a dining table. Uh, we pay for that, right? They brought these to the room. When the basket arrived, it was very dirty, and the food container was not washed either. Both in the basket and the food bowl, the food of the previous dog was stuck in. We called the reception and they will provide a new basket and food bowl. When this arrived, it was a bit dirty, . The food container was washed. I put the basket in the hallway and didn't ask for a new one. We had to pay €90 when checking out. The only thing they said is that they will discuss it with the cleaning ladies. I find this scandalous! I want to pay for my dog with peace of mind, but that must be in order! €90 for a dirty stinky basket and food container is scandalous! I stayed at hotels where nothing was asked for regarding bringing a dog, and then I got a proper bed and food bowl, and then I also got toys etc. I sent the hotel an email but have not received a reply to date."

"The Gran Ferdinand is an upscale hotel in a perfect location in easy walking distance to many attractions, restaurants and great shopping. The rooms are clean, spacious and usually quiet. There are three restaurants in the building including the best restaurant for Wiener Schnitzel in the City. Staff is very friendly and helpful. The hotel has a rooftop terrace with a bar and a pool. Quick laundry service is possible. It is a great choice for a stay in this beautiful city."
