10.0/10
Lightning fast setup and a running start. No other game gives me the full-on crunchy euro experience in such a quick timeframe

Description
In the thick of the Viennese modern age, exquisite cafés are competing for customers. Inspiring artists, important politicians, and tourists from all over the world are populating Vienna and in need of a hotel room. This is your opportunity to turn your little café into a world famous hotel. Hire staff, fulfill the wishes of your guests, and gain the emperor's favor. Only then will your café become the Grand Austria Hotel.
The start player rolls the dice, sorting them by the rolled number and placing them on the corresponding action spaces. On a turn, a player chooses one of the six actions and carries it out. The number of the available dice in the corresponding action spaces determines how much the player gets from the action. They then remove one of the dice and can carry out additional actions. With the different actions, a player can get the necessary drinks and dishes, prepare the rooms, or hire staff.
But no hotel can grow without guests. To choose wisely which guests to attract and to complete their orders brings some important bonus actions. The staff cards also have different advantages, but the game ends after seven rounds and no player can do everything they want, so whoever makes the right decisions and finds the best way to create bonus actions will win.
With 116 different cards and a new set-up in each game, Grand Austria Hotel provides a huge replay value. Each game stands on its own and demands new tactics and strategies.

First play on TTS with the solo bot, this was surprising and fun! Tight gameplay, but not as frustrating as people made it out to be. Enjoyable and pleasant euro with some tension typical of a eurogame. After multiple plays including the expansion: one of my favorites in the euro style. Really satisfying and really fun! Best expansion modules: ballrooms and celebrities.

买来半年了才尝试学规，以为很难，没想到规则书写的这么好，每个人就2回合*7大轮，相当优雅，有带入感，一般选行动都会选至少两颗骰子的行动，实在没得选还能跳过。每个行动都很合理，不会出戏，目前心目中no.1的双人神作。确实是dt久，不适合2人以上开。
10.0/10
This one makes it to my top 3, alongside Castles of Burgundy and La Granja. Let's Waltz is a must-have expansion, if you are a solo player.
10.0/10
A thematic Euro that has lots of tough decisions while keeping rules to a reasonable amount, this is a Top Ten game. The amount of staff cards and customers provide plenty of variety too. I passed on the expansion, seeing no real need to add more rules to this gaming goodness.
