Ranked number 10 in the world, Chef Heinz Reitbauer, traditional Viennese cuisine with a twist was one of the best dining experiences ever.
Rouge Bar, Sacher Hotel romantic, relaxing, impeccable service. Impeccable all around.
Fabio’s – Vienna’s top rated Italian

Hotels We Love Vienna

View from the Presidential Suite Sacher Wien

Rooftop Bar Ritz Vienna

Top choice for Hotels:
Sacher Hotel Wien
Ritz Carlton Vienna
Two completely different hotel experiences from a decorative standpoint. Sacher is traditional, glamorous and as old world as a classic hotel can get. Ritz Carlton is contemporary and with their club lounge and rooftop bar- hard to beat.
Other top contenders are the Bristol with a stellar location across from the Opera, and the Imperial Hotel with their old world glamour.

Sacher Hotel Vienna

Lobby, Hotel Sacher

Glamorous to the bone, Hotel Sacher is the number one choice if one wants a sense of classical Vienna. I felt like I was in a jewel box. Breakfast is the most elaborate I have ever seen. Service was unparalleled.
