Overview
Tucked away in the 22nd district of Vienna, the Residenz Donaucity is a 4-star hotel that feels like a cozy home away from home. After a long day of exploring the city, I found myself looking forward to returning to the hotel’s warm embrace. Schiffmühlenstraße 47 is in a quiet corner of Donaustadt, a stone’s throw from the scenic Danube Canal and the peaceful Donaupark. Honestly, it’s a peaceful retreat that’s surprisingly close to the action.
You know what really stood out to me? The staff. They were incredibly welcoming, and check-in was a breeze. The rooms are spacious and well-appointed, with large windows that let in an abundance of natural light. The soundproofing is excellent, so you can rest easy even if you’re staying during the busy season. I mean, I slept like a baby, which is saying something given my usual trouble with jet lag.
The hotel’s location is actually quite convenient for exploring Vienna. It’s just a short walk to the metro, which can whisk you away to the city center in no time. If you’re a fan of local cuisine, you’ll love the nearby eateries on Handelskai and Keplerplatz. The hotel’s breakfast spread is also worth mentioning – it’s a great way to start your day, with a variety of fresh pastries, cheeses, and meats that’ll make your mouth water.
In terms of practicalities, there’s ample parking available, which is a godsend if you’re traveling with a car. The neighborhood itself is pretty quiet, so you won’t have to worry about noise levels your rest. Honestly, with a rating of 9.2, it’s clear that the Residenz Donaucity knows how to cater to its guests’ needs. Whether you’re in Vienna for business or pleasure, this hotel offers a comfortable and authentic experience that’ll make you feel right at home.
The concierge service in Vienna can arrange exclusive tours of Schönbrunn Palace, secure tickets to Vienna State Opera performances, and organize personalized visits to the UNESCO World Heritage historic center.

Outstanding accommodation next to the Vienna International Center.
Good area, very close to VIC. Could have provided drinking water facility.
Excellent apartment - extremely clean, comfortable and ideally located at about 10 minutes walk from the conference center. Additionally, had daily room cleaning service which was unexpected.
Lovely apartment. Clean and very comfortable. Showers very good.
This is my second time staying here and again i had a good stay. Apartment was clean with daily cleaning services, staff were nice and the manager was very kind and helpful. They basically had everything you need
The apartment as such was very comfortable with all the required amenities inside the apartment including washing machine. There are pots and pans to cook if you wish. It is a bit of a walk from the U1 train station if you had luggage otherwise it is a comfortable walk. It seems like a safe neighborhood. There are groceries, bakery and restaurants very close by. Of course if you are like us and are in Vienna on Saturday or Sunday many of the shops close early on Saturday and are completely closed on Sundays. so prepare for that. Overall a good stay!
We enjoyed the location which was well situated for getting to the city center quickly and painlessly on public transport, and to local Cafe for breakfast
Bed linen very good. Great closet space which is usually rare in rentals. Extremely friendly and helpful hosts. Beautiful garden and quiet neighborhood.
The apartment is situated in a very calm residential area in the relatively modern part of Vienna. The location and the availability of the parking was important for me. The staff was very friendly, flexible and helpful - I would like to thank it again. I think I got a great value for my money - if you are concerned about the breakfast, Billa and Hofer is very easily accessible.
