Travel to Vienna

By train

If you arrive at Wien Hauptbahnhof (Vienna main station), follow the red sign for the underground U1. Take the U1 (direction Leopoldau) to Karlsplatz (2 stops).

If you arrive at Wien Westbahnhof, follow the orange sign for the underground U3. Take the U3 (direction Simmering) to Stephansplatz (5 stops). Then, follow the red sign for the underground U1. Take the U1 (direction Reumannplatz/Oberlaa) to Karlsplatz (1 stop).

By plane

If you arrive at Vienna International Airport (Flughafen Wien-Schwechat), follow the signs for the airport train station. Then, you have two options:

  • We recommend taking the trains of the ÖBB. Go to the platform of the airport train station and take either the S-Bahn S7 or REX 7 (in direction Wien) to Wien Mitte-Landstraße (23 minutes, 8 stops or 19 minutes, 4 stops). Alternatively, take a railjet in the direction of either Graz, Linz or Salzburg which stops at Wien Hauptbahnhof (15 minutes, 1 stop). Then, follow the green sign for the underground U4. Take the U4 (in direction Hütteldorf) to Karlsplatz (2 stops). For both these options, the one-way ticket (2 zones) from Vienna International Airport (to any place in Vienna) costs around € 4,20.
  • You might go to the platform and take the City Airport Train (CAT), which goes directly to Wien Mitte-Landstraße (no intermediate stops). Then, proceed with the U4 as before. The one-way ticket for the CAT costs around € 12,00 plus € 2,40 for the underground resp. € 14,40 for a combined one-way ticket.
