Location, location, location equals a perfect apartment for exploring Vienna. We walked most places though took the underground train once to get to the summer palace, which has the most beautiful grounds, even in the snow! Shops and cafes are close by, go past Lidl and find the Billa store, which had a better selection of food in smaller quantities. We had pre-booked to see a performance at the Spanish Riding School. Best views are on the first floor balcony. We also pre-booked an Opera at the State Opera House, which was rather a long performance, with little leg room for my 6ft husband. It was our first visit to Vienna and we shall be back, it’s was delightful. Everyone should put this lovely, compact, clean and friendly city on their must do list.
