Really worth a Visit, Spectacular Views - Easy to find using the Hop On, Hop Off bus.
Great fast lift to the top so that in itself is fun. Cannot explain the views as so beautiful. The revolving restaurant was wonderful, staff friendly, can recommend the apple strudel.
There is a little slide that you can pay to go down at the side of the tower. Needs to be done!
Definitely worth a trip.

Stunning views - The Danube Tower is a must-visit in Vienna! This incredibly high tower offers breathtaking views of the city. The fast lift whisks you up to the top in no time, where you’ll find a fantastic viewing point and a lovely café. I had a delicious hot chocolate while enjoying the stunning panorama. There’s even a slide for the adventurous, though I wasn't brave enough to try it. Highly recommend for an unforgettable experience!

Nice change - Must C for fans of viewpoints, the cafe also runs when you are sober. This tower is a nice change in Vienna with all its beautiful classical buildings. The fans can use the slide...

Amazing views - When booking this experience through viator, you don't get tickets. I needed to email the vouchers to the ticket office on arrival, so ensure you have data to do that. Or perhaps a printing facility (this wasn't given as an optio, but surely should be)
In terms of the actual experience, we went by train and had a lovely walk through the park to get there. Amazing views of Vienna from above. As we had gone to the town center the day before, we had fun picking out a lot of sights we'd seen.
Reason for 4 stars is that it's a short experience - once you are up and have walked around a bit, taken pics and possibly tried the slide, unless you have booked a restaurant, there isn't really much else to do. Also the information monitors didn't seem to work.

Fun experience, great views! - Fun to experience! Up via the super-fast lift in no time (be sure to look up through the lift's glass ceiling!) Once you arrive at the top, one of the things you can do is go to a revolving cafe where you spin around in about 5 minutes. There was a very nice hostess/operator walking around who offered to take a photo of many guests. My wife had a capucino, they put the tower's logo on the foam with it, very nicely done. The tower also offers a slide but we didn't use that. There is also a promenade/outside deck with fantastic views over Vienna. The restaurant at the top was not open yet in the afternoon, but the café also offered something to eat like cake. Transport there was easy with a bus line 20a from the nearest metro station Kaisermühlen VIC .

Top of the World - I was fortunate with the weather so I had great views. At around £18 for an adult it's an expensive visit but you can extend the visit for as long as you wish. There is no time limit. Do try the resolving restaurant if budgets allow. It's a unique experience as is the incredibly fast lift to the top.

You can do it - Unfortunately, accessibility by subway is a bit suboptimal, but if the weather is nice you can combine the Donaupark with this excursion.
I wouldn't mind better signage either.
Please note one thing: Unfortunately, when I bought the tickets in the online shop, it wasn't clear to me that although the climb to the tower opens at 10 a.m., the slide only opens at 11 a.m.
The time was not planned for the visit.
Since we were already there at 10 a.m., I bought the ticket for the slide in a completely pointless way and wasted the €5.
I then checked online again to see if I was just too stupid to read this when I bought it, but even with my newfound knowledge I couldn't find any immediately recognizable information about it online.
Please make improvements on the part of the operator.
Otherwise, a trip to the tower is recommended.
The prices are also reasonable.

Expensive, Avoid. - Arrived at 1830hrs on 13th June 2024. Paid the €18 entry each. Arrived at the top to find the cafe and restaurant closed. It was just a view therefore expensive, avoid!

Tower - Nope... Not worth the money...views are cool but it's not worth juggling the transport links. We were in and out within 5 minutes. (Didn't go to the cafe).
