Vienna Waits for You, Vienna, Austria

I’ve been to so many different places but somehow never made it to Vienna. But for my moms and my winter vacation this year we finally chose Vienna. So let’s get into it.

We booked the flights a few months back and Ryanair usually has good offers from Cologne to Vienna - we paid around 100€ each. Our plan was to fly Saturday morning like super early till Tuesday afternoon. But ofc our flight to Vienna was canceled (like always) and they put us on a later flight the same Saturday tho.

Hotels were a little more difficult to find for a decent price. We booked the Hotel Bellevue Wien for around 115€ each for three nights (without breakfast). The hotel is definitely more vintage and the rooms look like you’ve traveled back to the 70s. But especially with all the christmas decoration it was super cute! And it’s clean, the room was big and it’s super central with the train station right across the street. The red D-Line takes you right to the city hall in like 8 minutes.

We also used the Metro a lot. It’s super easy and convenient. From the airport we took the S7 line instead of the new fast CAT train cause one way is like 15€ with that and it almost takes the same time. We bought the 72-hours ticket for 25€ each and it was honeslty a great idea. Vienna was bigger than expected and we still got 15.000 steps in every day. ......
