The Das Capri Hotel, in Austria’s capital city of Vienna, is located a short walk from the centre of the city. It is across the Danube in a quiet and safe residential neighbourhood. It’s chic, modern interior exudes comfort and style. My husband and I stayed here for three nights earlier this year and we enjoyed every minute of it.
The Location
Vienna is a small city, separated by the Danube River. Its centre is the Stephansplatz, a pedestrian-only area with shops, restaurants, and museums. The spires of St Stephen’s Cathedral tower over the city’s red roofs and can be seen from Das Capri, which is located across the river. There is a metro stop practically on the doorstep, however for visitors that enjoy walking, Stephansplatz is only 15 minutes on foot. The 13th century Hofburg Palace, former home of the Austrian imperial family, and the Spanish Riding School, are two kilometers away, about twenty-five minutes on foot. Das Capri is on Praterstraße, one of the main thoroughfares in the city, yet it’s residential location ensures that rooms are quiet.
