WerkzeugH Vienna
A touch of home
You'll find WerkzeugH in the rooms that in earlier days hosted Werkzeug Huber, a local tool shop with a small gas station in front. In present days, the gas station has disappeared, wooden tables fill the stone-paved platform, tools have been removed and instead you'll find the the former establishment equipped with living room couches, pot plants in abundance and, most importantly, a good dose of its mellow, cosy mood.
The overall experience of being there can be summed up in terms of liveliness, individuality and creativity. Staying here makes you feel as welcome as you'd feel at your friends' place and at the same time it makes you sense you've got your finger right on the pulse of local life. There are community events like watching 'Tatort' and soccer games together and also, WerkzeugH is a space where artists can share their work.
To put a cherry on top, WerkzeugH serves great food, sometimes (spontaneously announced shortly beforehand) for free. What comes out of their kitchen is a colourful (and culturally slightly savage) combination of cuisines from all over. All in all, a lot of reasons worth going back there for!
