Many hotels in Vienna are often fully booked long in advance, especially in the peak summer tourist season, before Christmas, and around New Year. Throughout the whole year there are also several short-term spikes in accommodation demand in Vienna and this is even more true for the area near Krieau Station, Messe Wien, and Prater, where the hotels can be busy on various exhibitions and events. It is highly recommended to book accommodation well in advance, particularly when you are not flexible with dates of stay in Vienna.
