Pre-cruise hotel in Vienna

[AtMaui]

We will be taking a Christmas markets cruise from Vienna to Nuremberg, arriving in Vienna one day early.  Need recommendations for hotels.

It really depends on how much you want to spend and if you want to be in the historic area of Vienna or not.  The Hilton Vienna Danube Waterfront is close to where most river cruise ships port, but only 6 miles away, you can stay in Hotel Imperial a luxury hotel in the historic district which costs about twice to three times as much as the Hilton but it is amazing with a very high level of service.

Agree with previous post - depends on the area in which you want to stay and the price you are willing to pay. We prefer to stay near the historic city center and love the Boutique Hotel am Stephansplatz (excellent location, wonderful hotel with great service and amenities).

Twice in Vienna we have stayed at Hotel Kartnerhof, located in the old city just 2 blocks from St. Stephens.  A small hotel with reasonable (for Vienna) prices, great staff and an open rooftop area with tables and chairs for guests.  We brought our wine up each evening for a peaceful ending to the day. In late May this past year, our room was around $210 USD a night for the two of us.
