It´s near the railwaystation and it´s easy to find. The service is exellent and the room are nice. We will come back if we visit Wien again. My english is bad .. but I hope that you understand that we liked Hostel Ruthensteiner..!
This is a Trusted Review. Why?
Nice place with very good atmosphere (insofar as I saw; stayed here with friends, which always makes one pay less attention to the hostel itself). Close to the westbahnhof, which is a useful location, if a bit far from the real center of town. Free WiFi was yay!
My only gripe with the place was that it was rather noisy; sounds echoed down the hallway and the door to my room didn't stop any of it; you could hear every word spoken by groups of people coming up to their rooms late at night, as well as the vacuuming (?) outside the rooms around 7 AM.Still, I'd probably stay here again.
Brilliant hostel, I can't fault this place at all. Wonderful owner, friendly helpful, knowledgable staff. Great atmosphere, great cheap breakfast, comfy clean beds, sink in room, clean bathrooms. Perfect. Cant wait to go back!

Coming from the West Autobahn (A1): follow the signs to the city centre until you reach the Schönbrunn Castle (a large beautiful yellow building that will be on your right after an underpass).
Directly opposite the castle turn left, follow the street until the second traffic light and turn right onto Mariahilferstrasse. At house # 151 turn right onto Haidmannsgasse. Robert Hamerlinggasse is the first street down on the right, but because it is a one-way street, you will need to go to the second right and go around the block (right, right, and right again!) Welcome!
Coming from the south, east or north:
Look for signs saying 'Guertel' and follow the directions to the Westbahnhof Station. From there, drive the Mariahilferstrasse away from the City Center and follow the above directions.
