Just came back from a trip to Vienna.

Restaurants rated as follows:

Ohel Moshe 3.5/5
Shefa 3.5/5
Meah Shearim 5/5 Deserves every single cubic foot of each star
Aleph Aleph 4/5
Novelino 3.8/5

I stayed in Der Wilhelmhof and it is fantastic and within about 10 minutes walk of the main jewish areas. (3 minute walk to Shefa) pricing is much much better then anything in Innerstadt and the quality in my opinion is just as good.

Most likely will be TLV-VIE-EWR after sukkos. Overnight in VIE 10/14/20 6:55pm-10:15am.
My party includes a senior, a 2 yr old, a 1 yr old and 3 adults.
I would greatly appreciate any guidance on: airport hotel choices and kosher food delivery.

Thanks in advance!

Going to Vienna for shabbos. What is the best way to reach city center from airport? Taxi or trains?
And I didnt email my passport 3 days ahead to the shul, can I assume taking it along should suffice?
