The Do Step Inn is a new hostel with a new concept for travelers who want to explore the city with maximum comfort and minimum costs.   • We are situated 3 minutes walk from the main international railway station named Westbahnhof. This serves also the main point of public transport of Vienna. The Do Step Inn is right in between the baroque city center (Ringstrasse – 25 minutes walk) and the famous Schönbrunn (Sissi) Palace (25 minutes walk) right next to Vienna’s main shopping street (Mariahilfer Straße). So you do not really need to buy a public transport ticket to explore the city.   • Our rooms have modern, convenient furniture. We not only offer dormitories (a 6-bed, a 4-bed and some 5-bed special priced dormitories in the basement) but also private double rooms for couples and private twin or triple rooms (3 beds or double bed and extra bed) for guests that prefer to have some privacy. And the most important: Cleanliness is not a word but a mission.   • We have no bar as Vienna has so many fun places to go. But what we do have: great kitchen facilities! You may prepare all kind of meals 24 hours a day having the supermarket just around the corner. Save your money!   • We may offer you a spacious and comfortable lounge for your private entertainment and for the real backpackers feeling.   • And last but not least: we have really fair rates. Please especially check the low season prices. Besides many things are totally free of charge: Internet on our guest computers from 8 a.m. to 11 p.m., bed linen and towel, shower 24 hours, luggage storage on the whole day of arrival and departure, lockers in most of the dorm rooms, city maps on request.   If you look for a small, cosy, private run hostel just do step inn! The reception is easy to find in a blue and yellow house right on the Felberstraße with the big sign Do Step Inn hotel and hostel. The Felberstrasse is the street on the northern side of the railway station. The hostel part is around the corner one minute walk from the hotel part.   *********************************************************   The check-in is from 7.30 a.m. to midnight.
