About

St Christopher'S Inn Vienna

St Christopher'S Inn Vienna sits on Columbusgasse, about 500 metres from CIG - Christliche Internationale Gemeinde and a short walk from Keplerplatz. The guest rating of 8 comes from more than 6,800 stays, so the picture below reflects a lot of real experiences.

The building is a proper hostel and then some: a lively ground-floor bar, a terrace, and a lift to help with luggage. Dorms come with privacy curtains and lockers, private rooms have their own bathrooms, and the 24-hour reception covers early arrivals and late nights.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

5 reasons to book
  • The location is a genuine asset — Keplerplatz metro is about a minute away on foot, and Wien Hauptbahnhof is within a short walk. Guests repeatedly call it convenient for public transport and early trains.
  • Dorms are built for sleeping — Bunk beds come with privacy curtains, and multiple guests comment on how quiet and dark they are. The bar's soundproofing also gets a mention.
  • The bar is a social hub — Guests highlight daily games, fair prices, and a welcoming atmosphere. There's also a restaurant on site.
  • Friendly, 24/7 staff — From reception to the kitchen, staff are described as helpful and available around the clock – a key plus for late check-ins or early departures.
  • Solid value for central Vienna — Rooms are described as spacious and clean, with breakfast and bar prices considered fair. The 8.1 Value rating backs this up.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • The party energy isn't for everyone — The lively bar and social scene can be a downside if you're after total quiet, even though the rooms themselves are soundproofed.
  • Adults-only policy — Children aren't allowed, which suits some travellers but not those with kids.
  • Paid extras add up — Breakfast and luggage storage each carry a fee. The base price starts at £16, but your final bill depends on how many add-ons you choose.
  • Shared bathroom in some rooms — Triple, twin, and dorm rooms don't list private bathrooms – only the Private Bathroom Double Room does. Pack toiletries accordingly.
