Feel at home with us
- Hostel Ruthensteiner is the perfect place to stay in Vienna. It has been the first independent backpacker’s hostel since 1968 with a friendly, international atmosphere in a smoke-free environment. “One of a kind and not one of a chain”, our artistic hostel is family run and is ideal for individual travelers or small family groups. See what other Guests said in their reviews.
- FREE WIFI, FREE Internet PCs and iPads for rent- It was never so easy to contact your folks back home!
- Newly renovated, our early 1800′s historical building is just a stone’s throw from the Westbahnhof Train Station and between the City Center and the lovely Palace Schoenbrunn. It is both centrally located and in a quiet side street and with a beautiful garden where travelers can rest their bodies and refresh their souls.
- “Cleanliness & friendliness” is our motto! Helping you feel at home is our Passion!

May 26, 2013 at 12:44 pm Landed at Hostel Ruthensteiner. It's quite lovely. Quite a switch from Le Méridien Vienna, but this is definitely more my speed. I recommend it if you're looking for a hostel in Vienna. Very clean, friendly, well-organized, outdoor patio, bike rentals, free lockers, wifi, etc.
Welcome at Hostel Ruthensteiner Vienna!

Vienna's original Backpackers Hostel since 1968 is 4 mins from the Train Station, ideally inbetween City Center and Palace Schönbrunn offers spotless, quiet rooms both private and dormitory style.
