The First in Austria, but Not What You Expect: Our Stay at the DoubleTree by Hilton Vienna Schönbrunn (Review)
Unfortunately, the DoubleTree by Hilton Vienna Schönbrunn is not up to the usual DoubleTree standard; in fact, apart from a name change, there has been little change in the hotel since its re-opening.
The main problem is the poor and simple mattresses, which do not correspond to the DoubleTree standard and do not allow a good night's sleep. The modern design of the rooms and suites hides this fact at first sight.
Moreover, the hotel is plagued by staff shortages and there is a certain lack of enthusiasm among the rest of the team, or at least the feeling that every guest is appreciated.
Until these issues are addressed and resolved, we would not recommend staying at this hotel if you value the standards of the Hilton and DoubleTree brands.
Our Favorite Hilton in Vienna: Hilton Vienna Park (Review)
The Hilton Vienna Park impresses not only with its location and the recently completely renovated modern rooms. Despite its dimensions, the hotel offers the customer an individual experience, as one would expect in a five-star hotel. As a city hotel, the Hilton Vienna Park is outstanding, and the proximity to the customer is more familiar from smaller boutique hotels or resort hotels. The price is fair and the quality is high. A lounge that is unparalleled in Europe rounds up the experience and so the Hilton Vienna Park has become our standard address when visiting the Austrian capital.
Marriott's Suite Night Awards Update: A 'Sweet' Disguise for a Sour Deal
Suite Night Awards are a benefit that is supposed to be designed to make loyal customers very happy. Unfortunately, the community has long complained about serious shortcomings, and now Marriott has devalued it even further. Announcing this as something positive is an insult to the frequent traveler target group of loyal customers. We sincerely hope that Marriott will respond to their customers' feedback and fundamentally revise the benefit.
Munich Marriott City West: A Work in Progress with High Potential
The Munich Marriott Hotel City West has great potential to stand out in the affordable luxury category of Munich's hotel selection. On our first visit, the hotel was unfortunately not yet fully open, only the lowest room categories were available and the lounge was still closed. But the modern design and the extremely approachable and friendly team give us great hope that the hotel will impress in the future. We are very much looking forward to seeing it in normal operations and would love to come back again to tell you about it.
The Perfect Pit-Stop: Modern Rooms and Delightful Breakfast - Hilton Garden Inn Munich Messe
Those traveling by car can stay comfortably at the modern Hilton Garden Inn Munich Messe. The new building offers modern rooms and a very friendly team at a very fair price. A special highlight is the good and extensive breakfast buffet with regional specialties. Unfortunately, the location is poorly connected to public transportation, so the Hilton Garden Inn Munich Messe is not a good alternative to a city hotel.
