Vienna hotels
Looking for a hotel near airport in Vienna , as we have an early flight. Since we have all day in Vienna I'd like to have time to sightsee. Is the airport very far away? How much would a cab ride be? Thanks

The airport is about 30 minutes by public transport from the center of Vienna.
Numerous ways to reach the airport from the city center .
Reserved taxi - about 30-32 euro
like
www.airportdriver.at
convenient and quick- about 20 minutes
regular taxis found at taxi stands are much more expensive
Airport trasnsfer bus 7 euro about 30 minutes - stop at Schwedenplatz/ Morzinplatz -convenient to city center including UBahn lines U-1 U- 4 and U- 2
S Bahn train 3,60 euro from station Wien Mitte
about 30 minutes
CAT train 16 minutes 10 euro
more info and schedules for the above at
www.viennaairport.at
look under arrivals
in english too.
The airport arrival station is just below the departure hall - a 5 minute walk at most.
Thus you can easily stay at a city center hotel and esasily reach the airport.
or an
NH hotel is immediately across the street from the departure hall of the airport - 2 minute walk.
If you are flying with a Star Alliance carrier ( Lufthansa , Austrian, Swiss and more) - check in facilties including boarding cards and luggage check is available at the CAT station depending on the time of your flight -
thisd a nice service and usually little or no waiting at these counters.

I should add that the Wien Mitte station is now having renovations . A little less convenient due to this work - but good signage to guide you - just a little longer walking.
Hilton Stadt Park hotel is just across the stree from this station.

If staying at the airport is a total must for whatever reason, the NH Airport Hotel is the best (and only) choice. On the AP premises, and just 1-2 min walking to terminals.

Any other "near airport hotel" which requires shuttle services or else has no real advantage over staying in Vienna proper as molker described.
