Vienna is a vibrant city though the organised tourists are a right pain.
There are a number of excellent hotels in the city centre. We stayed near te opera house but cant remember what it was called.
Fantastic places to eat and drink and some terrific museums and galaries.
Christmas Markets: Depends what you are looking for and where you go. A couple of cities just cater for the tourists and tend to be tat. Other places are fantastic, but a lot of it may not be to your taste.
I like the glass baubles, traditional knutcrackers and carousels etc, but go more for the gluwein ad bratwurst stalls these days. Munich is good, Ulm is nicely parochial and Heidelberg is great. Nurnburg is big, but it is where all the coach tours go.
