    SO Vienna is SO AMAZING

    rating23 May 2026

    Having reviewed almost 300 hotels on TripAdvisor and staying at hundreds of five star hotels in USA, Europe, Asia and South America, this is the first time I can say this: Best hotel I have ever stayed in! From the moment we arrived the service from the staff amazed me. Exceptionally well trained staff, genuine desire to serve the guests and a friendly atmosphere that I never experienced in other hotels from virtually every employee we met. The reception team, the bell desk, the rooftop restaurant staff, housekeeping and the spa team all deserve praise and recognition. One amazing example: on Sunday morning the restaurant ran out of bananas at breakfast. I went to the front desk and asked the reception team if there is a market close by where I can get a banana! They told me markets are closed on Sunday but to sit down for a couple minutes! A couple minutes later she handed me 3 bananas! I have no clue how she did that! In over 40 years of traveling I have never experienced this level of service. Besides the exceptional service, our room was extremely comfortable and well laid out. Finally, I must compliment the hotel management for capturing such outstanding employees.

    Wonderful stay @SO/ Vienna

    rating10 Apr 2026

    In April 2026, I had a stay at SO/ Vienna that turned out to be one of the most pleasant and memorable travel experiences I've had!We were staying in a spacious and very comfortable room, with a superb view of the Danube and some of Vienna’s most beautiful sights.Dinner at Das LOFT was extraordinary! All the dishes exceeded expectations, and the wines presented by the sommelier were a unique experience in themselves. The Cusco we had for desserts is certainly a must to try. I highly recommend going up to the restaurant on the 18th floor for a truly special dining and aesthetic experience The staff super friendly, young, and exceptionally professional; provided us with an great level of care. Looking forward to be back again!

    A great experience!

    rating04 Apr 2026

    The experience at SO/ Vienna was simply great. Our city-view room on the 7thfloor offered a beautiful view over the city.The rooms are very comfortable, and the housekeeping team left our room spotless every single day.Breakfast is served on the 18th floor and offers a breathtaking view. I would especially like to highlight Damaris and Milena, two wonderful members of the staff who took care of us with true professionalism, warmth, and grace. They really know how to balance excellent service with genuine hospitality. Please keep them — they clearly know how to make guests feel welcome.We will definitely return to Vienna and to SO/ Vienna.

    REALLY BAD SERVICE AT NIGHT... dont ever try to order anything at night here

    rating02 Apr 2026

    I’m writing this as a long-time guest who is honestly disappointed by tonight’s experience.I am a Diamond member in Accor and have been staying at the hotel almost every weekend. What happened tonight was surprisingly poor and left a very bad impression.1st ordered 2 dinners soup with nuddles inside .. they serve it only with spoon no chopsticks no forks to eat the noodles, the fires were really caold, but they brought a hot one after 30 min. then at night. I simply ordered a yogurt with honey and almonds before going to sleep—something I have ordered many times before without any issue. I spoke on the phone with someone named Isabel, who said she is the bar manager, and another staff member, Flori.the conversation was in English with me. They put me on hold for about 30 minutes. they didn’t realize that I also understand German. While I was still on the line, they started speaking negatively about me in German to each other, assuming I wouldn’t understand.In the end, I was told there is no yogurt available at night—only at breakfast. how come and I am having it every weekend????? And in a 5-star hotel, where I’ve received this exact item many times before, the inconsistency is already questionable.What made it worse was the way it was handled: The call was simply ended without any real service, lang me 30 min on hold at night then hang on my face. To my surprise, there was also no manager on duty to address the situation.This experience felt unprofessional and disrespectful, especially as a regular guest.I will most likely continue coming to the hotel because I generally like the brand and the international standard. However, after tonight, I will avoid ordering anything through room service if this is the level of service being provided.I would strongly suggest reviewing your night shift operations. It seems that guests are left with inexperienced staff who lack both communication skills and basic service awareness.This is not what one expects from a 5-star hotel.P.S.: About 15 minutes later, someone knocked quite aggressively on my door. To my surprise, it was the yogurt I had ordered. I thanked her, but told her I no longer wanted it, as I was already in the process of writing this TripAdvisor review.I want to be clear: I am not writing this to harm anyone. I’m writing it as feedback and as a lesson for the people involved, for their future work—whether in this hotel or anywhere else in the hospitality industry.In hospitality, the guest should feel valued and respected. That is something I believe is often missing in many hotels in Europe compared to other parts of the world, where service is handled with more care and attention.What surprised me the most is experiencing this level of service in a 5-star hotel—especially within what has been my favorite hotel chain worldwide. Christian Klaus, Sonstige at SO/ Vienna, responded to this review Dear ugr0wt,Thank you very much for sharing your detailed feedback. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you experienced with your room service during your stay. We truly appreciate your loyalty as a Diamond member and long-time guest.Your comments have been shared with our team to ensure that we continue to improve the guest experience, especially during night service, and to maintain the high standard you expect from SO/ Vienna.We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back soon and providing you with a flawless stay.Kind regardsChristian E. Klaus, General ManagerSO/ Vienna
