You can stay in this guesthouse of a monastery, in the heart of Vienna, without following the dictum ora et labora (pray and work), though you will get to see how the monks live by the credo. This will be one of the most tranquil stays you've ever had. The rooms are simply furnished and without frills, and without TV; why not switch on the relax mode and go chant with the fratres in the Freyung? The picturesque square is just a minute from Café Central if you think you're missing out on some of the fun. Pros: superb location; good value. Cons: only the bare necessities.
