oh molker
how can you say the nossek is just 'ok'
lol

it was such a nice surprise for us -didnt expect to get such nice lodgings so centrally and so reasonably ( 110 euros back in 06)

too bad about the renos in the graben - loved walking there

I suggest that the above poster read my posting more carefully. I can say the Nossek is just Ok very easily - have you walked by there recently or not since 06.
The area of Graben between Julius Meinl and Stephansdom now looks like a battle zone. Noise , dust , dirt torn up pavement , deep holes , construction equipment -temporary walking areas. This is said to remain this way for a good portion of the summer. Not the best place to stay currently and I just advise travelers to this situation. People should be aware of this.The noise alone must be an inconvenience and not conducive to a stay there at this time.

The city of Vienna advises until October.
The bus 1A forced to detour.
Delivery and trash removal chaos.
No fun for a visitor stying at this hotel.

and i, molker was just having a laugh
(note the ' lol' laugh- out- loud)...and the acknowledgement of the 'renos' going on - 'renovations'


ahhh international barriers to humour!

of course it wouldnt be pleasant with all the noise and upheaval
so of course it wouldnt even rate as a place to stay

but i loved the nossek
and when all the rubble has been neatly stowed then it is more than an ok place to stay!!!
