What makes Pension Wild special
The building is on a side street in Josefstadt, a few minutes’ walk from the MuseumsQuartier, the Ring and the U-Bahn. The gay scene around the Wienzeile is easy to reach. Lonely Planet describes the guesthouse as one of the few explicitly gay-friendly guesthouses in the city, while welcoming all guests.
The rooms are simple, soundproofed and equipped with a minibar and flat-screen TV; depending on the category you share a bathroom. Guests on Google and Tripadvisor particularly praise the warm, relaxed atmosphere and the value for money. Important: the gay SportSauna in the basement, once a trademark of the house, is closed.
A good fit if you …
- want to stay centrally but quietly and cheaply
- prefer a personal guesthouse to a chain hotel
- want to explore the MuseumsQuartier and Innere Stadt on foot
Not ideal if you …
- expect hotel comfort with a spa or gym
- absolutely don’t want to share a bathroom
- are coming for the former in-house sauna, it no longer exists
