Clemens and Gabriele’s stylish first floor apartment in a quiet residential area (Brigittenau) has been the perfect location for our 5 day trip to Vienna.
Clemens met us upon our arrival and took his time to explain all the mod cons their flat has to offer (I would like to point out that it boasts a Nespresso machine as well as a tablet with local apps including transport links which came in very handy) and he also kindly provided us with loads of great tips and restaurant recommendations.
The apartment is situated a short walk from a couple of tram lines and 5-10min from the underground station Friedensbrücke which is very convenient for trips into the city centre of Vienna as well as for day trips into the suburbs famous for their vineyards, e.g. Grinzing, Nußdorf located in the Vienna Woods and offering beautiful hiking trails and rustic wine gardens where one can enjoy young wine and great Austrian cuisine (you must try some of the mouth-wateringly delicious desserts like “Topfenknödel/-strudel”, “Kaiserschmarren” and “Marillenknödel” whilst here!).
After all the culinary excitement we also enjoyed the odd morning run in Augarten park which is only a 2min walk from the apartment and perfect for jogging, walking and cycling.
Vienna is an amazing city full of historic, cultural and culinary delights, and Clemens and Gabriele made this week extra special for us by letting us stay in their cosy apartment. Highly recommended!
