Welcome to Hotel Imperial, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Vienna
HISTORY, TRADITION, LUXURY AND ROMANCE IN PERFECT HARMONY
Home to such iconic classical composers as Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert and Strauss, Vienna boasts more than 50 theaters and opera houses. The Vienna waltz originated here and its centuries-old spirit still permeates the city's dancehalls. Our expert concierge and butlers attend to all wishes and desires before they are expressed, such as having a hand-ironed newspaper delivered bedside with morning tea. Tastefully furnished with precious, authentic antiques, walls cocooned in jewel-toned silk, and bathrooms made of marble, our 79 rooms and 59 suites blend the timeless elegance of 19th Century Vienna with state-of-the-art facilities and amenities. Voted as ‘One Of The 25 Most Iconic Hotels To Visit On Earth In 2024’ by Elle Décor and being recognized on Condé Nast Traveler’s 2024 Gold List, our renowned hotel awaits with a matchless experience.
A Former Private Palace
Originally built as a private residence of Duke Philipp of Württemberg, the Palais on Vienna’s Ring Boulevard was transformed into the Hotel Imperial for the Vienna World’s Fair and was ceremoniously opened on April 28, 1873.

These essential golden keys are the epitome of superior customer service, guaranteeing that our guests are looked after to perfection. Our head Luxury Collection concierge Manfred Grassauer is proudly wearing “Les Clefs d’Or”, the gilt insignia of the celebrated international association of concierges.

Restaurant OPUS
Restaurant OPUS is Vienna's gourmet address, where creativity and culinary art blend perfectly with Imperial traditions.
Imperial Bar Wien
