Such a beautiful experience and very immersive. only thing to say that if you visit here be so careful when walking around. me and my mum watched the same girl step on two poor little butterflies, obviously it was done unintentionally but she was too invested in taking pictures to watch where she was stepping. it’s especially difficult when the buterrflies are the light brown colour that almost completely blend in. we were extra cautious when we were stepping around and then took pictures and looked around whilst standing still:) just a little note because otherwise these poor butterflies won’t see you coming 🦋🦋🦋 especially in the darker rooftop steps and the little tunnels as they fly in there and are difficult to spot. couldn’t recommend more though, worth every penny 💘

We came during the summer and the heat was pretty awful, especially because the greenhouse makes it even more humid. The price was also pretty high (9€) considering it's not that big and can be visited in 15-20 minutes. However if you love butterflies and nature this visit is a must, as you will be able to see the butterflies up close and they will fly all around you, just a magical experience! I recommend coming in colder months as you will not find the temperature too unbearable, and there will probably be fewer people, allowing you to sit on one of the few benches and enjoy the atmosphere 🦋💐✨

Wow. I was absolutely stunned by the beauty found at the butterfly house. Being able to see all the cocoons of different types of butterflies was a nice touch as well. I saw so many different types of butterflies, flowers, and plants. Only complaint was children touching everything they saw.

Everything was beautiful, the only thing downside is that there were a lot of people and it was very hot and humid in there. Nevertheless, the place is a MUST VISIT when you’re in Vienna. I read reviews before going and everyone said that there are not many butterflies but that’s so not true… there are a lot of them and they’re so friendly.

It was a very unique experience, I even had a butterfly land on my arm. It was much warmer in the building than expected but it was a nice warm break from the cold. Perhaps a sign pointing out the entry would be helpful.

I was a bit disappointed because it was very crowded. For such a small place there were to many people. You tried to take a photo then someone bump into you.

We were so pleased we added this to our itinerary whilst in Vienna. So beautiful and definitely worth a visit. Lots of butterflies, beautiful flowers, a bridge you can view from. Was definitely an unexpected highlight

Not many varieties. Quite a lot damaged, I.e. damaged wings. Worst bit was having to print 7 pieces of paper per ticket when booking online.this was only attraction doing this. All others sending tickets online. Thought we were trying to save planet?

Salma_B

It was nice but a bit smaller than expected. It only takes maximum half an hour to get through it all.

I disagree with all the negative reviews, which invariably lack context. This is part of an iron and glass former Palm House adjunct to Hofburg. It costs a fortune to maintain these types of structures. €9 is too much for you? Not to its many visitors. People have short attention spans. There are 200+ butterflies in this small space. I just went, and they were landing on many people, including me. Don’t expect to be inundated with butterflies like in some Disney movie. Be patient and still. The worst part is adult men plucking butterflies off feeding stations and planting them on their girlfriends. Gross. I’m sure kids touch them too. People don’t know how to behave. Get over it. Loved it.
