One word keeps popping into my head when describing the Donauzentrum: LARGE!…read more It just keeps going on and on and on. A take a right and you are over the road and into a huge food court/movie complex. A little further on though a narrow walkway and it opens up onto another huge area of shops. Wow! For a "city centre" shopping mall this is pretty impressive. So far the easiest shopping centre to get to (no free buses required here) just a few stops away from Stephansplatz and directly outside Kagran station. All the main stores and chains are here as well, including the aforementioned Cinema and food hall. Such interesting food options include SUBWAY, a crêpe stand and Wok Ice! Very varied options. Well lit and bright and clean this has got to be my favourite shopping centre as yet in Vienna.

They adapted a little bit. There are more sitting possibilities, but still not enough…read more The washroom area right at the netrance, on the upper floor to the right at the escalator is nicely, if not in a luxury way, developped. There are leather-like chairs and a couch and there is also a built-in aquarium with nice fish for waiting children to see - great idea. No crazy guards annoying customers, super! But the shopping center suffers a bit, because of the U1-station Kagran right at the opposite street and the people that hang around there. People, women with small children, children alone and handicapped have to enter the doorways whilst drunkards, all kinds of weirdos are almost preventing them from entering the underground station, some even ask, almost force you to give them some money - THAT keeps customers from coming and buying! Besides THAT is a very very bad reputation for the city of Vienna!!! The shopping center is still great, but be careful on the way to go there!!! The guards should not be in the center, but at the U1-station!!!!

I arrived an hour early to catch my RejioJet Student Agency €1 "Fun and Relax" bus to Bratislava…read morefor the day (yeah, you heard me) so I kicked around this mall for a bit beforehand. It's part of Vienna's large bus depot and is a nice and safe place to hang out while waiting for your departure. I grabbed a good Viennese style coffee at a little kiosk in the middle of the mall, I used the clean and FREE toilets, and I perused the large supermarket inside for snacks to take on my journey. There isn't much in the way of stores but if you need toiletries or clothing, you'll find it here. Big chain brands include H&M and Geox but there are plenty of little indie and European shops too. Take note that there are a ton of different exits so I suggest upon arrival you 1. take time to locate your bus platform and 2. watch out exactly where you exit the mall. We tried to catch an Uber back to our hotel after arriving here and we had two drivers give up due to sheer frustration. Walk a block away from the Center and it's easier for taxis or Uber drivers to find you because the huge structure interferes with their GPS.

They have a movie theater with food court on the other side of the mall. Christmas time is great, they will wrap your gifts for free on the second floor next to Saturn.

Entering the shopping centre from the ground floor leaves you felling this is quite an old centre,…read moredark and gloomy but once you ride the incredibly slow escalators up to the second floor the centre opens up to reveal an open light spacious area. From the second floor there is a large bridge leading to the banks of the Danube. Could be one of the nicest sights from a shopping centre anywhere. The centre itself is quite small and rambling over 5 floors in 3 separate buildings. There is a large UCI cinema here and a Holmes place gym and Monkey play centre for the kids on the fifth floor reached by one of the quickest elevators I've ever been in. There are plenty of eateries here including a Subway and TGI Fridays and various shops of the slightly cheaper variety. Also a largish Saturn too. My tip is that if you live near to the centre then its worth going to pay a visit but there are nicer shopping centres a little further outside of the centre of town.

Wien Mitte - The Mall is the biggest and newest mall right in the center of Vienna and can be…read moreeasily reached by trains from all directions, especially from the airport and by undergrounds U3 and U4. It opened to the public on Thursday, April 25th, 2013. The most stupid thing you can do with a new mall is not to show any direct links to the shops and restaurants on the homepage of the mall. The homepage of the mall has a very ugly design and does not give the information people are looking for when they want to get to know more about the location - no common sense at all!!! The design is very impressive, the technical security is at first sight ok. The shop mix is very good, the elevators work and there are enough. There are also enough staircases and escalators. The position and amount of securities is good. Although thier knowledge about what to find where is poor. There are some information points which is good and compensates for that. But you ask the securities first when you are new to the center and don't know where the info points are. The big plus is that all major transportation companies have information shops there. CAT - train to the airport has the biggest office at the Mall. Wiener Linien - is responsible for all Viennese undergrunds, trams and busses. OEBB - the main Austrian train company. There are also enough ticket machines and monitors. The big minus is that there are already lots of malls in and around Vienna. There are not really new shops and people have not much more money to spend. Tourists of course will drop in coming from the airport, as it is one of the major stops of the airport train, but they would not spend much money there as they want to do some sightseeing first before spending money for shopping. AND - because of the amount of people you will have problems at the train and underground stations on the long run. The restaurants are great, but this also means that all other shops and restaurants around will lose business, economically not very well-planned.

Has a market as well, but I did not stop to shop. I did however stop at its food court for some food.

One woman working at the Colloseum/Forever ruin all. Before I liked the shop before but not anymore…read moreand not in Wien because of the one young woman working there she was really rude person and I haven't never ever seen anybody like her working in the shop before. She work in fashion clothes shop Colloseum but she didn't like her job at all and she is not stylish or friendly at all. She is very impolite person who hate stylish foreigner women. I bought shirt wrong size and next day I tried to return the shirt back to the shop with the receipt and thought all was fine. Her attitude was terrible rude. She was another side of the shop and then she came to take the dress. There was also another worker but she control everybody even she is not the boss. She didn't say nothing until asked. She told the shop will be soon closed but it was not. Then she said I can come another day there. She knew I was tourist that's why she thought she could take the dress and receipt from me. She tried to leave me like getting nothing back no new dress no money. Then she said she won't give any money back to me, She wanted to take the dress and money and she is seller. She said come another time without receipt she took. There was a lot of women they all saw what she did and customers left the shop when they saw her. I thought to go out without nothing then she just throw the money back like to some pigs. She insult me she said that I'm living in Vienna and go shopping every eevery day she was saying disgustingly eeevery eevery day. I think this is rude and not normal behavior from the seller. She was watching what I did all day long also in another shop she work in 2 shops. She should be happy about that I spent holiday in Vienna and spent money to Her city but she was only angry about that. Not smart attitude to hate tourists because tourists bring money. She also work in Stadion center Colloseum/Forever shop so if you are foreigner watch out! there is nice workers but also this one rude at Colloseum. Disgusting customer service at the Colloseum shop. I still wonder how they can keep worker like her she is evil and she don't like fashion. Other workers in other shops they were much more friendly.
