In the creative heart of Vienna, the Hotel Altstadt Vienna offers a stay where art, design, and genuine hospitality effortlessly intertwine. Housed in a historic townhouse, it feels less like a place to visit and more like a place to belong.
Each of the 62 rooms of the family-owned boutique hotel is a unique creation, designed by renowned architects, artists and designers. The result: a curated journey through Vienna’s creative soul, where no two stays are ever quite the same, but always full of inspiration, generosity and a warmth you can truly feel.
Suite #15, developed with Gebrüder Thonet Vienna, is a light-filled celebration of craftsmanship: vibrant green meets bold orange, balanced by the timeless elegance of Thonet’s iconic designs, creating a space that feels both fresh and deeply rooted in Viennese tradition.
Room #30, designed in collaboration with the renowned furniture manufacturer Wittmann, features a modern geometric interpretation of Vienna by fashion designer Arthur Arbesser. The result is playful, precise, and unmistakably contemporary – a subtle dialogue between fashion, design, and architecture.
Suite #15 Thonet
Suite #63 Freud
The Opera Suite #36 pays tribute to Vienna’s musical heritage. A collection of over 1,000 classical LPs, the legendary Eames Lounge Chair, and Lobmeyr’s Metropolitan Chandelier create a space that invites guests to pause, listen, and fully immerse themselves in sound and atmosphere.
Meanwhile, the Freud Suite #63 offers a more introspective experience, thoughtfully designed to echo the legacy of psychoanalysis and encourage quiet reflection, curiosity, and a deeper sense of place.
Beyond the rooms, the experience continues: breakfast is served in cosy salons with fresh, local ingredients, while afternoons bring homemade cake, plenty of tea and a sense of Viennese ease.
And then there's the brand-new fitness and yoga studio, created in collaboration with Meindl-Cavar Architects and featuring works by artist Fritz Hortig. Embodying the spirit of Viennese coziness, the space is characterised by hardwood floors, high ceilings, and box windows through which daylight streams in.
Hotel Altstadt Vienna fitness and yoga studio
A rowing machine, an exercise bike, and a spin tower – all by TechnoGym – invite you to work up a sweat. Next door, separated by a colourful curtain, is another room available for Pilates, yoga, and breathwork sessions, as well as barre exercises.
Ultimately, a stay at Altstadt Vienna is an invitation to live the city’s creative spirit from the inside and feels like staying with friends.
