“The location is excellent, close to the city center, the river, and the striking Vienna Energy building designed by Friedensreich Hundertwasser. The metro and central Vienna are also nearby, and the rooms are modern. We'd happily stay again.”

“We got serious value for money at Urban Island Riverside. The apartment was spotless, modern, and had everything we needed. The beds were incredibly comfortable. Being right by the river was amazing, and the location was great: a short walk to the tram stop and a quick ride to the center. Self check-in was easy, and the staff treated us very well.”
