Hotel's Historical Context
The hotel looks back on a tradition shaped by 200 years of contemporary history. Originally constructed by Josef Krantz in the style of the Italian Renaissance, it was later converted by Mathias Czermak into a "casino"-a combination of an inn, concert hall, and coffee house. Evenings saw meetings of journalists, which later formed the journalists' and authors' association Concordia in 1859. Celebrities, including Luitpold Prince Regent of Bavaria and Marlene Dietrich, have been among the guests. The room is dedicated to composer Franz Lehár, whose signed autographs are on display.
Services and Extras
The hotel participates in the initiative 'Sichere Gastfreundschaft', a campaign by the Ministry of Agriculture, Regions and Tourism and the Austrian Chamber of Commerce. A generously laid out banqueting room is ideal for conferences, presentations, and seminars. The hotel provides a workspace with 24-hour internet access. Parking ticket allows repeated garage entry/exit within the period of validity.
“This hotel's location is undoubtedly a high point, steps away from main attractions and transport links; however, some rooms may feel dated, particularly regarding modern amenities such as readily available USB ports. While the staff are helpful and the public areas retain Viennese charm, travelers expecting true five-star accommodations might find certain aspects underwhelming, such as older furniture and inconsistent bedding arrangements. It's a perfectly acceptable base for exploring the city, but manage expectations accordingly.”
