Where visitors usually base themselves, and why.
Fünfhaus sits among the older districts of Vienna, a residential quarter with few hotels of its own. Lodging within Fünfhaus itself is thin on the ground. Visitors more often bed down in the neighbouring inner districts and reach Fünfhaus by tram, drawn to the plain brick front of the Christkönigskirche and the quiet streets around the Kalasantinerkirche and the Schulzentrum Friesgasse.
