The Best Luxury Hotels in Vienna
In Vienna, luxury comes first. The Ringstrasse is studded with gems, exclusive, sprawling hotels in Grand Old Dame buildings that were once palaces for emperors and dukes. Other priceless lodgings are tucked onto quiet squares, or behind unassuming facades. Whether its five-star accomodations you are looking for, or simply that which is impossible to classify, this city has it for you.
Sofitel Vienna Stephansdom
Why it made the list
The sleek skyscraper on the Danube Canal holds within a certain restrained splendor. The ultra-modern rooms are in black, white, or gray motifs, and the theme is carried through most of the open spaces; an avant-garde stamp on a tradition-laden town.
Ritz-Carlton
Why it made the list
Four palaces strung together make up what is today the Ritz Carlton. Located on the Ringstrasse just steps from the Stadtpark, the rooms blend 19th Century charm with contemporary style and convenience.
Park Hyatt
Why it made the list
The newest luxe hotel sits on the oldest and possibly most quaint square in old Vienna, the Am Hof. Formerly the headquarters for Bank of Austria, aspects of the bank were cleverly featured in the design, as were elements of Vienna’s Werkstatte movement. Fine Art, on loan from the local museum, graces the walls and downstairs in “the Vault,” is one of the Vienna’s most splendind hotel spas. Perhaps best of all, the hotel opens onto the city’s new GoldenesQuartier, the exclusive district for upmarket shoppers.
