R2850WZmmm Couples - 25/08/2021 TripAdvisor review

We booked this hotel, but it turned out to be closed. The owners only informed us weeks after booking and shortly before traveling. They rebooked us to another branch very nearby, stating that it would have the same quality (mercure Wien Zentrum). Meanwhile other hotel rates had increased so we had little choice to accept, but we regretted it during our stay. The hotel room was very hot as the AC doesnt work properly during the Viennese summer. Opening the window was not an option. All windows are street facing. Our room was directly above the entrance with noise from people entering and leaving, but also of loud drivery trucks than kept their engines running. Complaints were not addressed during our stay.

It can be described in one word: great

Nick Business - 15/02/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Generally okay, although difficult to set the room at a cooler temperature - fixed control. From a safety element, when you left the room, the corridor light did not come on for some time - 4th floor. Room was clean and breakfast offered a good choice

It is always a pleasure to receive positive feedback for our breakfast buffet and the clean rooms. I will share your comments with our team. Please note that due to winter time we have in the whole hotel heating. So at the moment it is not possible to cool down the room. I do apologize for the inconvenience. I forwarded you comments to the lights in the corridor to the technician. Thank you again for sharing your experience, and we hope your next visit will be as pleasant as the previous one.

You claim to be green and propose no cleaning for the room but offer in the bathroom a plastic duck... As well as ticket for internet printed on paper... I feel your green proposal is more making money than real ecology !

Andrew B 26/01/2020 TripAdvisor review

Lovely staff and superb breakfast. Only negative is our room was slightly too small to comfortably open our suitcases but the rooms are very well appointed. We visited in January and it was cold outside but we felt that the heating was slightly too high overall throughout the hotel as you feel like stripping naked when you enter the Lobby from outside.

Dear Mercure Guest. Thank you for choosing Mercure Vienna First as the place to stay when visiting Vienna. Your feedback is what motivates us to keep going, doing our best to fulfill all of our guest’s expectations. It is nice to hear that you started the day well with our rich breakfast buffet. Yes, our rooms are intimate but we hope our guests enjoy their smart design and personalized touches that make it feel like home. You certainly have enjoyed most of our facilities, I do hope you will be able to return to us in the near future. Kind regards from Vienna, Julia Ron Assistant Front Office Manager

A modern, well-maintained hotel in excellent location

Customer review rating 4.0/5

Rachel K. Couples - 31/12/2019 Confirmed reviews ALL

We had a junior suite which was modern, well laid out and spacious. The suite comprised a separate living room, large double bedroom and fantastic bathroom complete with walk in shower and a double sink. The suite was spotless and well-maintained. Plenty of wardrobe space, a large safe ( which accommodated our laptops), mini bar, two TVs, sofa and swinging arm chair made for a very comfortable stay. All the staff we met with were friendly and good at their jobs. The only room for improvement would be to have more staff serving at breakfast - we and other guests had to ask for crockery and cutlery supplies to be refreshed - and the breakfast room would benefit from a couple of self-service coffee machines to ease pressure on staff and speed up the service. It is also worth noting that the in-house bar and restaurant is closed on Sunday and Monday evenings.

Dmitrii Families - 30/12/2019 Confirmed reviews ALL

The overall impression of the hotel is so so. I'd like to mention very unfriendly staff, bad breakfasts, and room with great signs of wear-and-tear. Definitely the hotel is not worth its price range.

Hotel was ok, room was dark because it faced other buildings. There was a damp smell in bathroom and had to leave window open. Check in Receptionist, I think her name was Cristina (she sounded Spanish) was lovely, welcoming and very helpful. Ordinary breakfast with a lovely helpful waiter, Eurek - the only staff that smiled and greeted us at breakfast.

Dr M. C. Couples - 22/12/2019 Confirmed reviews ALL

I believe that for the price Of €1581 for 6 nights, I expected better. Wardrobe TOO small. The jackets and coats had to be left hanging on the hangers and in the suitcase. Armchair very uncomfortable. We had a small table to put our things on it, and instead of a chair a vanity stool. The bathroom was not cleaned on two days, the evidence of public hair in the bath is enough. The maid just changed the towels. On the plus side the reception and restaurant staff were very nice and helpful. Breakfast was good, not excellent. For example, the pastries were always the same, day in day out. Only on the morning that we left was there another variety.

Dear Mr. C., Thank you for taking the time to tell us about your experience at the Hotel Mercure Vienna First. I am sorry that your experience with our Houskeeping and breakfast as well with our room Desgin did not meet your expectations; please allow me to express my sincerest apologies.

Al R Couples - 09/11/2019 TripAdvisor review

As we only had 3 days, the location was perfect, close to everything including cafes and restaurants. 5 minutes to get on the U-Bahn and get around the city so with an umbrella, a few showers of rain were not a problem. Very friendly attentive staff, modern and trendy decor. Highly recommended.

Dear Mercure Guest. Thank you for choosing Mercure Vienna First as the place to stay when visiting Vienna. Your feedback is what motivates us to keep going, doing our best to fill all of our guest’s expectations. You are right, if you want to explore the city center there is no better starting point than our hotel. Our staff take pride in all they do and it is always motivating for them to receive such kind comments as yours. You certainly have enjoyed most of our facilities, I do hope you will be able to return to us in the near future. Kind regards, Julia Ron Assistant Front Office Manager
