Vienna-Brigittenau: Hostel at Friedrich Engels Platz

Hostel Brigittenau is a pretty big hostel. It is also pretty clean and the rooms are nice. Emmanuelle and I had a double room-bunk beds, a table, two closets, a sink and mirror. The bathrooms and showers were down the hall.
It was a pretty busy place, with all kinds of people in and out of there, but they all seemed to keep to themselves and there wasn't any kind of meeting place or hang out that we could find.
Unique Qualities: Breakfast was pretty good, with rolls, cheese, cold cuts, butter, jam, and coffee, tea and hot cocoa included in the price. There were also other things like yogurt and orange juice that you had to play extra for. They also served lunch and dinner for a price.
There isn't a whole lot going on at Friedrich Engels Platz, but there is a mall next to the Subway Station. It's pretty big and new, with a movie theater, H&M, a grocery store, fast food and a couple sit-down restaurants.

Useful advice about the 'caped crusaders' swarming over around the Opera House and Stephansplatz! Oddly enough, I have yet to be stopped by them - perhaps I look vaguely Austrian? Hiding my tourist map whenever striding purposefully past them helps! | rexvaughan Sat May 22, 2004 21:34 UTC
I am in process of building my Austria pages and love yours. It is hard not to fall in love with Vienna and Salzburg. | patrikske Sun May 9, 2004 01:34 UTC
Excellent Vienna page ! | Nathalie_B Sun Apr 11, 2004 09:19 UTC
While living in Europe I should definitely take the opportunity and travel as much as possible. Thanks for "showing" me Vienna, it has been on my wish list for a long time. Very interesting tips here. |
