From Vienna International Airport:
The Courtyard Vienna Prater/Messe can be reached in about 35-50 minutes by public transport.
By train:
Follow the signs to get to the railway station at the airport . First of all, you have to take
the “S7” (29 min, € 4,40) or “R 29672” (25 min, € 4,40) to “Praterstern”. From there you can switch to
subway line U2 (purple line) heading for “Seestadt” (using the same ticket). Get off at “Krieau”, from there
it is aprox. a 5min walk to the hotel.

2. Alternatively you can also take the train “CAT” (16 min, € 12) heading to city center “Wien Mitte –
Landstraße” where you need to switch to subway line U4 (green line) heading for “Heiligenstadt”
(additional ticket needed, € 2,40). Get off at “Schottenring” and switch to subway line U2 heading for
“Seestadt”. Get off at “Krieau”, from there it is aprox. a 5min walk to the hotel.
By bus (probably the easiest way):
Take the Vienna Airport Bus Lines (VAL3 – line 3) in front of Terminal 3 (23 min, € 8). Get off at stop “Krieau
(Vorgartenstraße)” and walk aprox. 6 min to the hotel.
By taxi:
By taxi you can reach Courtyard Vienna Prater/Messe in about 35 minutes. We recommend you to book a
taxi in the arrival hall, since there are companies which offer a fixed price of about 36 Euros. Taxis in front
of the airport are more expensive, since the taximeter is charged.
From Vienna Main railway station (Wien Hauptbahnhof):
Buy a ticket from a vending machine (€ 2,40) and take the subway line U1 (heading to Leopoldau) to
Karlsplatz and then change to subway line U2 (heading to “Seestadt”) and get off at ”Krieau”. From there it
