I was so lucky to get a room so affordable and in a perfect location. Pension Aviano is on a street just off the Katner Strasse and is so near the Hopburg it is amazing this place is so cheap.
We really enjoyed our stay here. The bed was big and fluffy. The room was large and kind of shabby-chic-ornate. The windows were double paned, so it was quiet. The breakfast was delicious and filling. The hotel staff was very friendly and helpful. All in all, the only negative was the bathroom. It was on the small side, but with plenty of hot water and pressure.
This hotel was really hard to find. We drove to Vienna and found navigating the city to be a challenge. You wouldn't think so, what with the ring around the old part, but we had a devil of a time finding the entrance to the parking garage near the hotel. We eventually gave up, parked where we could, and walked. My parents ended up standing on the corner of where we were supposed to turn, so that we could see them and find our entrance.
Directions: Kind of near the opera house and just off the pedestrian shopping street. Marco d'Avianogasse is probably the smallest street in Vienna, so you might have to hunt for this place.
