Vienna hotels
Vienna offers two very different kinds of guest rooms. The old-guard hotels, many situated in former palaces strung along the Opernring, evoke the baroque essence of the city. Consider at least one blowout night at a classic, such as the Grand Hotel Wien or Imperial, with their swagged drapes and plunging, cut-glass chandeliers. If Old World drama doesn't appeal, try a boutique pioneer, such as the Alstadt, which has led the way for a new wave of smaller, designer hotels clustered in the three most attraction-filled central districts: The inner city, Spittelberg, and the MuseumsQuartier.
