Altstadt Vienna Hotel
Sensuality and style in Spittelberg, Vienna’s historic and artistic quarter
An alluring boutique hotel jam-packed with modern art, Altstadt Vienna is housed in a 19th-century town house in a quiet part of Vienna, just a five-minute walk from the city centre. Expect wonderfully stylish rooms, a fabulous new bar-lounge, inviting lounges with open fireplaces and a truly welcoming atmosphere.
Spread across five floors, modern works of art by Gilbert & George and Andy Warhol decorate the walls throughout Altstadt Vienna. Rooms, suites and apartments range from classic modernity to stylish decadence and each room is different.
Wake to a sumptuous breakfast, and start the day with a glass of Prosecco and mango juice. Then wander into the city and take a horse-drawn carriage around the sights and admire Vienna’s stunning Baroque architecture. Stop to visit the Schönbrunn Palace, the former summer residence of the Imperial family. In the evening, enjoy an aperitif in Altstadt Vienna’s exciting new bar before dinner in a local restaurant.

Services
The Altstadt Vienna hotel is your home away from home. Every room is unique, bright and colorful or classic and elegant.
Your check-in to the Altstadt Vienna - a warm and
friendly welcome and the lobby - a
cozy salon with an open fireplace.
The Altstadt Vienna offers 42 rooms and suites spread across the five storeys. The huge art collection which can be admired throughout
the hotel makes this even more special: a Philippe Starck bathroom, an
original Helnwein somewhere along the staircase, and a Prachensky at the
front desk. Even some of Vienna's museums enrich the collection by
borrowing art works to the Altstadt.
The owner Otto Ernst Wiesenthal, himself a frequent
traveller: Create a place in a way that you yourself love to spend your
time there.
