This Kohlmarkt legal bookstore has a cool facade designed by Adolf Loos in 1921. You see a cube,…read moresquares, and rectangles in the design. The facade makes me feel like you'd need to hide a copy of Marx in your pocket. Mostly everyone around you will be rushing to Demel next door, but a visit here is much more exciting.

On a recent trip I picked up some David Sedaris and Stephen Clarke, found some English-language travel guides that I hadn't seen at the British Bookstore, and was sorely tempted to buy even more books but realized they wouldn't fit in my luggage for the trip back home.

A very well stocked book shop with a great selection of magazines. heaven for people like me who…read morelove reading and like to browse and discover (new) magazines. the athmosphere is really nice and it just feels right to select your books in a store instead of buying them online all the time. i am all for digitialising and technical stuff, but a book is a book and a magazine is a magazine, no technical device can give you the same feeling and experience ;)

If I can I would award them a sixth star…read more The service is still perfect, friendly, competent and reliable. When you order a book, you can also order it just to have a look at the item in reality, thus you don't have to buy it if you don't like it. The range of books, but also handcraft products, CDs, DVDs, teaching material is still stunning. There is also a huge variety of books in different languages. It is great to see that they even improve where you think ther is no space to do so. Hats off!!!

Located on Mariahilferstraße and sprawling over three floors Thalia is fairly extensive. There is a large English and smaller Spanish language section at the back of the store. Diverse selection of books, DVDs, CDs and stationary and many members of staff just waiting to find what you're looking for. Not too expensive either and if you look deep enough there are some good bargains to be had. Well worth a few minutes.

My friend and I visited this location of Wilhelm Frick, a bookstore in Innere Stadt, when were were…read morevisiting Vienna for a few days at the beginning of the month. The store is pretty large - two stories - with a surprisingly large English language section upstairs. The service was friendly, and we both quickly found some books to read over the week we were in Austria. I also appreciated that that they had seating where you could read a few pages of a book to decide whether to buy! Overall, a nice bookstore in the heart of Vienna.
