As you might expect, Vienna offers some of the most opulent and historic hotels in Europe, with prices to match. However, reasonably priced centrally located accommodation can be found, especially in the numerous pensions throughout the city. These are not necessarily inferior to hotels in quality, in fact some are a whole lot better. The distinction is only a technical definition; a pension might occupy one or more floors in a building, but to be a hotel the entire block must be occupied.

Luxury Hotels

Hotels and pensions in Vienna tend to adhere to the standards of efficiency, modernity and cleanliness you would expect in Europe. In the 1st district, the Innere Stadt (Vienna's old town and commercial center) is where you will find most of the big luxury hotels such as the Imperial, the Bristol, the Sacher, the ANA Grand Hotel, the Vienna Marriott, the Inter-Continental Vienna, the Vienna Hilton and the Im Palais Schwarzenberg. All these hotels are situated on the Ringstrasse and are popular with celebrities and presidents, offering all the luxurious features you would expect.

Pensions & Other Hotels

Tucked away in the small streets of the Innere Stadt, there are also a large number of charming pensions and hotels. There's Pension Nossek and the Graben Hotel (just off Graben), or Pensions City, Aviano, Neuer Markt, Pertschy and Christina. Some very popular and beautiful hotels near St. Stephan's Cathedral and Krntnerstrasse are K nig von Ungarn, Rmischer Kaiser or K&K Palais Hotel.

Somewhere Quieter (and Cheaper)

If you are looking for somewhere a bit quieter and somewhat cheaper but still within walking distance of the 1st district and its sights, have a look in the districts beyond the Ringstrasse such as Landstrasse, Wieden, Neubau and Josefstadt. Here, you will find the atmospheric Terence Conran-designed Hotel Triest, the traditional Biedermeier or the stylish Altstadt Vienna as well as some good quality pensions such as Pension Lindenhof, Pension Anna, Pension Quisisana or the classic Museum.

Further Afield

Further afield in the hills of Grinzing or the gardens of Hitzing, the guest will find comfortable and often really quiet accommodations, mostly a 10-to 20-minute ride by underground or tram from the city center. There are hotels like Gartenhotel Glanzing and Landhaus Fuhrgassl-Huber (close to the vineyards of the 19th district) or the Imperial Parkhotel Sch nbrunn in Hitzing.

Breakfasts

Breakfast is included in the price at most hotels and pensions, although what it actually amounts to can differ enormously. Continental breakfast generally means coffee or tea, rolls, jam and butter. Full continental breakfast means you should get some cheese, sausage and cold meats, and buffet equates to the chance to gorge yourself on as much cereal, muesli, eggs, breads, rolls, cheese and meats you can possibly manage.

Bookings

In general, the high season for accommodation in Vienna is from April to October and for the two weeks between Christmas and New Year (during which there is sometimes a surcharge). If you are arriving during peak season, it is best to plan ahead to guarantee yourself a room. Should you arrive without booking, any of the tourist offices can make a reservation for you.
