Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Hotel Capricorno enjoys a strategic location near public transport, with the tram and underground stations conveniently close by, allowing easy access to Schönbrunn Palace and other city sites. Many guests appreciate the proximity to the city center, with St Stephen's Cathedral and other attractions within walking distance, as well as the Danube canal nearby with restaurants and cafes. While some found the facade a bit plain, others loved the modern, well-furnished rooms and spacious showers, though a few guests have noted that some rooms can be on the smaller side. Guests often enjoyed the excellent buffet breakfast.

small room dying walrus
The location was pretty central, and I guess that's... acceptable.
The room I got was a joke. It was so small, I nearly tripped over my suitcase just trying to get to the bed. And get this, the air conditioning sounded like a dying walrus ALL night. I barely slept a wink!
