Car parking: All of central Vienna is a short term parking area, even where there is no sign! In order to park during business hours (Monday through Friday, 9am – 10pm), you will need a prepaid parking voucher (up to 2 hours only). There is usually plenty of street parking available in front of our hostel. Unfortunately we cannot offer full day parking during the week. Parking is free on weekends, holidays, and in the evenings (10pm – 9am). Motorbikes park for free anytime.
If you arrive during the week, we suggest you use one of these parking lots. The cheapest all-day and overnight option is Park&Ride, all of which are located close to a metro station – Ottakring Park&Ride, for example, is just a 10 minute metro ride from Westbahnhof.
FREE 15 minute parking vouchers for unloading the car are available at the reception.
