Last May, I stayed at the Hotel Altstadt. Very nice boutique hotel and gay approachable. It was about 15 min walk to the gay area. The lgbtq+ area is conveniently located near the huge unlock air market (Naschmarkt). There are quite a limited gay bar choices for all ages and tastes. I always check to check out the scene when going to a major city in Europe. Hope you have a great time in Vienna. It is one of my top places that I've visited.
I'd definitely suggest the Cafe Berg (). Have been there several times and always enjoyed it. Good place for breakfast or brunch.

The Viennese contain perfected the art of enjoying life, as seen in their dedication to the ritual of Kaffee und Kuchen (coffee and cake). For them a visit to a coffeehouse is about far more than getting a daily caffeine hit—it’s a cultural experience where people linger, philosophize, and enjoy desserts that look like miniature sculptures.
