Bear in mind those spots are a bit more spread out compared to the rest of the city. There are areas in Leopoldstadt that feel decidedly empty after dark. Stay close enough to the canal (which has sand and sunbathers in the summer) and it's an inexpensive alternative are very close to the center of the city. To the southeast of this district, you'll find the Prater and the Ferris wheel seen in The Third Man.
