First Look: Mandarin Oriental Vienna, Austria

Set within Vienna’s Unesco-listed Ringstrasse in a landmark former courthouse, Mandarin Oriental, Vienna artfully unites art nouveau heritage with modern elegance, retaining original features such as grand staircases and ornate ceilings. Spacious and light-filled, the hotel’s 138 rooms and suites have a residential grand-apartment feel with high ceilings, marble bathrooms and soft neutral palettes, many overlooking a glass-covered courtyard that forms the social heart of the property. Guests will find four distinct culinary experiences led by Chef Thomas Seifried, including seafood-led fine dining at Le Sept and the Atelier 7 concept spanning a brasserie, café and izakaya-style bar. Facilities include a spa inspired by Vienna’s musical legacy, offering holistic treatments, an indoor pool and a fitness centre, while the First District’s storied boulevards, St Stephen’s Cathedral and the Golden Quarter are all within walking distance.
