Located in the Old City, next to the Spittelberg artist’s district with its many interesting shops, cafés and good restaurants and within 10 minutes’ walk of the Volkstheater and the spectacular Museum Quartier. Owned and run by the charming Otto Wiesenthal, the Altstadt has 62 rooms and is located on several floors within a classical building.
Drinks and a complimentary afternoon tea are served in the attractive lounge/bar and the comfortable rooms are decorated in a unique blend of modern/traditional style. The personal art collection of the owner, including an Andy Warhol print, is displayed throughout this delightful pensione-style hotel, in the lounge, corridors and bedrooms - pieces are regularly moved and rehung ensuring no two visits to the hotel are exactly the same.

For all of our clients travelling to Vienna, we are delighted to include a Masterticket which gives you entrance to the Leopold Museum and the Kunsthistorisches Museum (Museum of Fine Arts). The Kunsthistorisches was built by Emperor Franz Joseph to house the vast Habsburg collections – amongst its many highlights is one of the foremost collections of Old Masters.
In contrast, the Leopold Museum is the home of Austrian modern art and includes works by the founder of the Vienna Secession movement, Gustav Klimt. The Kunstkammer at the Kunsthistorisches Museum is highly recommended; it reopened in 2013 after a 10 year restoration and is one of the world’s most important chambers of art.
The hotel Altstadt is the best I have ever stayed in. It is beautifully decorated and the staff were truly amazing... it should be recommended to anyone going to Vienna, we could have stayed there for ages!
Hotel Altstadt, Vienna - excellent staff, breakfasts and junior suite. Easy walking distance to museums, opera and art galleries. Delightful weekend.
The reception staff at the Altstadt were outstanding, we were given a very warm welcome and they made sure our rooms were ok. One lovely young lady helped me get online on my Ipad - never had such lovely, welcoming staff.
The outstanding trait of the hotel was the staff who were without exception cheerful, more than helpful and a pleasure to be served by. I cannot stress how important this is to the enjoyment of a holiday.
Outstanding service at hotel especially Sara in reception- plenty of detailed advice. Appreciated the log fire in lounge.
The Altstadt is a gem, so caring and very quiet - it suited us exactly.
