The name is misleading: the Pension Wild is a peaceful little property on the Lange Gasse, right through the heart of the Josefstadt. It turns out that "Wild" is a family name.
Featuring several levels of pricing and amenities, the Pension Wild is near the Rathaus and about ten minutes to the Museumsquartier on foot. The 23-room pension offers bargains both for guests who want bells and whistles on the cheap and for those who want rock bottom rates above all else.
Pension Wild has been family-operated since 1960. The building itself, currently obscured by scaffolding, is 100 years old. Rooms are undergoing a rolling series of renovations, with the most expensive (the "Luxury" category) completed as of autumn 2007. Outfitted with cable television and telephones, they are furnished in a conservative blue and white color scheme with wood accents. They are also quiet, and as is often the case with hotel rooms in Vienna, they are a bit dark.
Luxury rooms have in-room showers and toilets. The most basic "standard" rooms share facilities, and the mid-level "comfort" category rooms boast in-room showers but share toilets. In-room showers are a little tight but are brightly lit and quite clean, as are their public equivalents. The simpler rooms lack some amenities but are not appreciably different in overall design. |
