About

Stadtaffe - Chic Hostel Vie

Stadtaffe - Chic Hostel Vie brings together 100 rooms in Vienna's 16th district, a short walk from Chelsea. The property is set up for travellers who want more than a basic dorm: each bed comes with its own curtain, a personal light, and storage, so you get a sense of privacy even in shared quarters. The common spaces are designed for hanging out — a shared kitchen, a garden with picnic tables, and a game room with board games.

The hostel's location is practical for exploring the city: the nearest metro stop is within easy reach, and you can walk to Chelsea in about five minutes. The Third Man Museum is roughly a 25-minute stroll away, and the area is quiet after dark, with a supermarket close by. Staff are known for being friendly and helpful, and there's a luggage storage room if you arrive before check-in or leave after checkout.

  • Friendly and helpful staff — The front desk team gets strong marks for being welcoming, English-speaking, and quick to assist with questions.

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
