This flat is definitely as beautiful as it looks in the photos. The photos show the art on display and the lovely furniture. But the photos can't really convey the overall effect of the space. It's like living in an art installation.
In addition to its beauty, it is a nurturing space. You feel cared for by many little touches. The bed is the most comfortable I've ever slept on. There is an amazing collection of delicious and therapeutic teas--even in the month we stayed there we didn't have time to sample them all.
The kitchen is very well equipped. There is even a panini maker. It has a large refrigerator with several freezer drawers. And because the flat is just a five minute walk from the Kutschkermarkt, a wonderful street market that features locally produced fruits, vegetables, meats, and fish, you will probably want to take advantage of the kitchen.
The flat is in an ideal location. In one direction you can walk or take a trolley or bus to the Inner Stadt and all the famous sights and museums. In the other direction you can walk through several beautiful parks and past the elegant embassies that are located on the tree-lined streets.
Some of the best food to be found in Vienna is within walking distance. And Caroline's excellent guide that comes with the flat will lead you to those restaurants.
It was hard for us to leave. We loved staying here.
