Hotels in Vienna
Travelling to Vienna
    
Autobahnen (express highways) connect Vienna with most of the cities in neighbouring
countries, including: Munich, Bratslavia and Prague. From England, you can take
the Channel Tunnel running under the English Channel. Passengers drive their cars
aboard the train, Le Shuttle, at Folkestone in England, and vehicles are transported
to Calais, France.
The main artery to Vienna from the west is Autobahn A-1, from Munich, Salzburg
and Linz. The A-2 runs from the south - Graz and Klagenfurt (Austria). The A-4
comes in from the east, connecting with route E-58, which runs to Bratislava
and Prague. The A-22 takes traffic from the northwest and route E-10 brings
you to the cities and towns of southeastern Austria and Hungary.
Trains arriving in Vienna from northern or central Europe stop at Westbahnhof
or Sodbahnhof stations; from Berlin and Prague, connecting railway stations
are the Franz-Josef Bahnhof or Wien Mitte/Landstrasse stations. From Paris,
trains leave the Gare de l'Est at 07:49, arriving in Vienna at 21:18. From Munich,
trains to Vienna leave daily at 09:24, arriving at 14:18, and leave at 23:19,
arriving at 06:47 the next morning. From Zürich, you can take a train at
21:33, and arrive in Vienna at 18:45. Train passengers using the Channel Tunnel
under the English Channel can go from London to Paris in just three hours and
then on to Vienna.
Because of the excellence of rail service into Vienna from other European countries,
bus transit is not especially popular. However, Eurolines operates two express
buses per week between London's Victoria Coach Station and Vienna. The trip
takes about 29 hours.
Wien Schwechat Airport is 20kms southwest of Vienna and convenient local buses
leave for the city centre every 20 minutes. From European cities like London
and Frankfurt, there are regular flights to Vienna. If you're flying from America,
you may need to fly to neighbouring European cities and catch a domestic connection
to Vienna. However, the national carrier Austrian Airways has recently upgraded
its service, establishing direct flights from New York to Vienna. British Airways
and Lufthansa also provide good connections to Vienna from other parts of the
world.
Cruise lines run on the Danube River and connect Vienna with places such as
Passau in Germany, Bratislava in Slovakia and Budapest in Hungary.
