For a reasonably priced choice near the Westbahnhof, the main rail station, this is one of your best bets. The station is about an 8-minute walk away. Although this is a chain and its units are no better than a good motel in the U.S., the rates are good for Vienna. Behind a graceless facade that looks like a small-town department store, the Ibis Wien offers modern comforts. The furnishings, though well maintained, might not always be tasteful. One guest called the upholstery "psychedelic." The snug bedrooms are bland but inviting, with streamlined furnishings and small, neatly kept private bathrooms with shower units. The roof terrace provides a panoramic view of Vienna. Groups are booked here, and you'll meet all of them in the impersonal restaurant, where reasonably priced meals and wine are served.
