For those who enjoy modern art, the halls and rooms of the century-old building are decorated with original artwork. The location isn’t exactly the in the heart of Vienna, but it is within walking distance to some top attractions like the Museum district, Christmas Market, and Volks Theater. It’s also only a five-minute walk to both the Rathaus and Volks Theater stations.

Relax at the Bar

Pentahotel Vienna has one of the best hotel bars in the city. The rooms are tiny, but most guests don’t notice because most of their time spent at the hotel is having signature cocktails in the lounge. The bar is such an integral part of the hotel that it’s also the reception desk. The rooms pack a lot of comfort into their space, including a rainfall shower. The hotel is not exactly centrally located, but it is only a short walk to the Pilgramgasse station.

Stay in a Patrician House

Altstadt Vienna is located in one of Vienna’s oldest neighborhoods, Spittelberg, within walking distance of the Imperial Palace and Museum District. But the location is only half of the hotel experience. Each room is uniquely designed with both touches of modern and nods to Vienna’s historic past. It’s almost like you’re staying in an art gallery. If you stay at Altstadt, be sure to stop back at the hotel for your afternoon break and enjoy complimentary cake and tea next to the lobby’s fireplace.

Where Shoppers Rest Their Feet

Hotel Das Tyrol is central to two of Vienna’s best shopping centers – Mariahilfer Strasse for the avid clothing shopper and Naschmarkt for food lovers. The rooms are adorned with original artwork by local painters giving them each a unique touch. Some of Vienna’s top dining spots are just blocks away as are the best sites – Hofburg Palace, State Opera House, and the Museum District.

Feel at Home

While Hollmann Beletage Design & Boutique is located in Vienna’s main tourist district just steps from St. Stephens Cathedral, guests feel that they are staying miles away from the hustle and bustle of Vienna. When guests are not relaxing in one of the 26 large hotel rooms, they can cozy up to the fireplace in the hotel library or sit in the quiet garden terrace. Each visitor is also treated to a 6-course breakfast cooked by the hotel’s owner.
