Not grumpy at all: The British luxury travel magazine "Condé Nast Traveller" has named Vienna the friendliest city in Europe after a reader poll. This was announced by Vienna Tourism on Tuesday. In the worldwide ranking, Austria's capital city comes in second place behind the Ecuadorian capital Quito.
In total, more than 180,000 responses were received in the poll. Among other things, people were asked which destinations they would visit again. In the "Friendliest Cities" category, Vienna was chosen by the British as the friendliest city in the Europe ranking. Following in the rankings were Florence, San Sebastian, Reykjavik, and Lisbon.
In the worldwide friendliness ranking, Vienna secured second place behind Quito and ahead of Cape Town. Tourism Director Norbert Kettner was pleased with the "compliment" from the visitors. He noted that Viennese grumpiness, combined with robust charm, apparently goes down well.
