szg - There are 3 Hiltons in Vienna - Hilton Vienna, Hilton Vienna Danube, Hilton Vienna Plaza. Like lili, I plan to book soon. Can you offer some thoughts on location re the VIE DO. I am tempted to change hotels each day, to produce more Hilton "stays", if possible.

szg,

this sounds like a great DO, and VIE is such a beautiful city. could you please add me to the maybe/possible list of attendees, as so far I have no idea where I'll be that far out.

thanks

I would stay in the Hilton Danube from Saturday to Sunday, because this is near to the Danube Tower, where the brunch will be held.

A sale would be good but right now you are too far out.

If we don't catch a sale, wait until about 90-120 days out for the prices to rationalize.

Thanks for answering the question I've been meaning to ask. I'll go ahead and book the Hilton as well.

Sounds wunderbar - please add me to strong maybe. Booked an award at the Hilton Vienna with rapidly deflating HH points. Have relatives about three hours away in CR so this is a twofer.
