Arrival
We recommend using public transportation for a sustainable, uncomplicated, and quick journey.
Our hotel, Josefshof am Rathaus, is located just a 2-minute walk from the U2 Rathaus station. From there, you can easily reach Josefsgasse via Auerspergstraße, where our hotel is situated.
Alternatively, you can take tram line 2, with a stop located just 1 minute away from the hotel. Disembark at this stop, walk towards Volkstheater, and turn into Josefsgasse.
As a small token of our appreciation for your fully sustainable journey (from your home to the hotel using public transportation such as train, bus, or bicycle), you will receive a complimentary welcome drink at our bar. Please present the appropriate proof of your journey at the reception upon arrival. This offer is exclusively valid for arrivals without a car or airplane.
Since March 1, 2022, a city-wide short-term parking zone has been in effect throughout Vienna. Parking is chargeable in every district of Vienna. You need a parking ticket or a parking permit (only for district residents) to park your vehicle in public parking spaces.

In all of Vienna, there is a widespread short-term parking zone. In front of the hotel, there is a loading zone where you can conveniently unload your belongings, and our reception team can assist you with parking options.
