Maybe a shorter exchange in autumn with a city, which can be reached by train? And we are already open for suggestions in summer 2025 ... |
Sunny, spacious and quiet flat near Schönbrunn
We live in a very bright 150 m2 flat under the roof with 5 rooms and a lovely 20m2 west-terrace, where you can enjoy the sunset as well as a good glass of (Austrian) wine, take a rest or play darts. The flat is a combination of two flats in two different houses, but nearly on the same niveau.
It's a place near the castle of Schönbrunn, called "Old-Penzing" with less traffic and not far from the next underground station "U4 - Braunschweiggasse" (7 minutes walk) and the S-Bahn Station "Penzing" (6 minutes walk). So you can easily reach the "city" of Vienna.
If you want to go to places outside of Vienna for hiking, mountain-climbing, bathing in lakes or traditional bathes, f.e. Gumpoldskirchen, Wachau, Wienerwald, Semmering, Rax, Schneeberg, Hohe Wand, Neusiedlersee, Baden ... it is no problem with public transport from "Penzing" or from the railway-main-station "Wien-Meidling", which can be reached within 25 minutes.
We have 6 bicycles for you (24´´, 26´´, 1 MTB, 3 adults). As we do not own a car anymore, we use them for ourselves to ride in the city or in the "Wiener Wald". If you want to go further away, it is mostly possible to take the bikes with you in the train.
The public transport system is extremely good and inside Vienna very cheap (17,10 Euro for one week). Salzburg can be reached by train from "Penzing" within 2,5 hours, Linz within 1,5 hours.
The next two supermarkets are 300 meters away. A hall for playing tennis and badminton and for bowling is 600 meters away. The little "village" Hietzing with a great variety of shops including the coffee-shop Dommayer (where Johann Strauß played his music) is about 7 minutes walk.
It gives us pleasure to be helpful in case of all tipps and informations to fulfill your wishes while staying in Vienna.

FR100618Manfred et Beate sont extrêmement accueillants, attentifs et chaleureux. L'appartement était préparé pour nous avec soin, leurs enfants plus âgés avaient préparé l'arrivée de nos enfants en tenant compte de la description de notre famille. C'était très sympathique de leur part et nous avons tous les 4 beaucoup apprécié.
