Question about Pentecost Sunday in Vienna
Ideally after several days in Vienna, we'd like to pick up our rental car on Sunday morning, May 11th, and head to Stift Klosterneuburg for a tour on our way out of town. It looks like S. Klosterneuburg will be open on the day (Pentecost Sunday), but I am a little worried about the rental car locations... we normally use Avis and while the website says they are open Sunday mornings, I am curious about holiday Sundays. We were in Germany on the Monday after Pentecost last year (Whit Monday), and many things were closed (including the EuropCar office). Do most places of business also close in Austria for these 2 days?

We've decided to stay in Vienna until Monday, but it is still a holiday I realize. We were hoping to avoid renting at the airport because of the surcharge. I will try to check from here and see if any of the city center rental locations are open on Whit Monday. Our apartment would be close to the Avis and Hertz offices.

Thank you Molker!
Our apartment is on Singerstrasse.
The website is http://www.netland.at/wien/phillips/
I believe it is located within the Ring, or close outside it. I will check into getting our rental car from Hertz since it will be the most convenient to the apartment (assuming the office is open on Pfingsten Monday!)
