Near the shops of Kärtnerstrasse on the Neuer Markt, the Aviano (a sister hotel to Josefstadt's crush-worthy Baronesse) offers professional service and dependable, if not exciting, rooms. It’s also on the edge of Innere Stadt, only a five-minute walk from the Albertina and the Opera.

The choice location is reflected in the hotel's rates, which are on the high side even for the services that this four-star property provides.

Several stories up, the narrow halls of the Aviano fan out to 17 bigger-than-average rooms. With floral-patterned carpeting, pink curtains, vanity tables, and chunky white beds, the chintzy Viennese style is in full effect here, but it's more dated than whimsical thanks to the lack of modern accents.

At these rates, the clean, porcelain bathroom (showers only!) could stand to be a little larger. Pay for one of the larger doubles to get a room outfitted with couches and some spectacular views of the city in corner rooms with bay windows. Note that these deluxe doubles are out of the Cheapo range most times of the year, dipping back down into Cheapo-friendly territory during low season.

The rooms overlooking the Neuer Markt are brighter and outfitted with free Wi-Fi, cable television, and a minibar. The beautiful breakfast room, awash in sunlight, is a nice bonus. Guests can use the attached terrace to eat "al fresco."

Location: Very central

0.3km to city center

The Innere Stadt is the Vienna of tourist brochures and chocolate boxes. This is not such a bad thing. The 'hood is popular because it's still charming and beautiful. The narrow, twisting cobblestone streets and fin-de-siècle façades, the expensive shops on the pedestrian-only Graben, and the alluring Stephansdom are all here. Sure, the Stephansdom is constantly undergoing renovation, but the parts not obscured by scaffolding are knock-your-socks-off gorgeous.

Unlike many old city centers popular with tourists, the Innere Stadt is big enough to boast back streets that appear quiet and undiscovered, thus offering a respite from the frenzy. If the Graben doesn't empty your pocketbook fast enough, there's also the slightly less posh shops of the Kärtnerstrasse, leading to the Opera and the Ring circumscribing the Innere Stadt.
