Rosewood Vienna

Vienna celebrated last week the debut of the fifth European property in the Rosewood Hotels & Resorts portfolio and the brand’s first in the German-speaking market.

Located at Petersplatz, one of the city’s most famous squares, the hotel is steps from the celebrated Graben, Kohlmarkt, and Tuchlauben pedestrian streets, renowned for luxury shops and restaurants, and close to many of Vienna’s cultural and historical sites.

The property joins a collection of Rosewood European properties that includes Rosewood London, Rosewood Castiglion del Bosco in Tuscany, Hôtel de Crillon in Paris and Rosewood Villa Magna in Madrid.

Rosewood Vienna occupies the former headquarters of the eminent financial institution, Erste Group Bank AG. The 19th-century landmark comprised buildings of historic pedigree including the apartment in which Mozart lived and wrote The Abduction from the Seraglio.

Today, the bank has been transformed into a hotel of singular luxury with 71 spacious guestrooms and 28 suites. A brasserie on the sixth floor and rooftop bar offer sweeping views of Vienna’s Old Town.
