Crowne Plaza Hotel Vienna (http://www.e-traveller.net/lh738/triprep/03vie/vie-crowneplaza-vienna-stay030519.html)
+ duvet (not only a basic blanket covered in white sheets)
+ coffee/tea maker
+ complimentary coffee at the lobby in the morning (if I remember correctly)
- unsure about upgrade or not (I had booked a room with a view. I don't know what was special about the view from this room. The view was definitely not towards Vienna center.)
The hotel is located on the "Donauinsel". The room rate is quite ok - maybe due to the somewhat off location (5-10min walk to underground station. IMO, the location isn't that bad. There are also many restaurants on the "Donauinsel" and a lot of nightlife - especially in the summer time).
The hotel advertises a "2 crown offer": complete minibar + 24h internet access in the business office (= 2 PCs next to the lobby) for 25EUR.
Holiday Inn Vienna City (http://www.e-traveller.net/lh738/triprep/03vie/vie-holidayinn-viennacity-stay030520.html)
+ duvet (not only a basic blanket covered in white sheets)
+ coffee/tea maker
+ newspaper at the door in the morning
- unsure about upgrade or not
- a rather bright light is in the room from luminous advertising on the street (curtains are too small)
You need about 10-15min to walk to the "Karlsplatz"; an underground station is about 5-10min away.
The room was rather basic - but contained anything you need and was rather new. Buffet breakfast was included and contained a broad variety. IMO, the hotel is quite a good decission (the same applies to the Crowne Plaza) if you want to earn points and avoid a pricy (but luxury) Inter-Continental, Westin, Imperial, Marriott, Hilton, ...
