Located in the heart of Vienna, Palais Coburg Residenz offers views over the park, St. Stephen’s Cathedral and the old city. A stately palace dating back to 1844, it was turned into a hotel in 2003. Behind the recently restored neoclassical façade, it combines historical ambiance and skillfully incorporated medieval features with contemporary design elements, and state-of-the-art technology. Spacious guest accommodations – all in suites – are light-filled and appointed with a handsome blend of classic and modern furnishings, museum-quality period pieces, fine artwork and crystal chandeliers. The hidden treasure of the hotel is its secluded garden, a green oasis of towering trees and fragrant flowers, offering a serene escape within the city.
Among the last great palaces to be built in Vienna, Palais Coburg Residenz now delivers one of the city’s most royal sleeps. Set just behind the Parkring with views of Stadtpark, the hotel is an era-bending blend of medieval brick walls, starkly modern elements, and antique furnishings. Light pours into the 34 roomy suites, which are nearly as delicious as the two-Michelin-starred cuisine from chef Silvio Nickol. Oenophiles swoon over the wine archive, comprising six barrel-vaulted cellars that house some 60,000 bottles; taste a few prized labels in the cozy, red-leather wine bar.
