Hotel Erzherzog Rainer: Viennese charm for over 100 years.

Perfect hospitality under the honorary protection of Archduke Rainer

Even the name of the hotel in Vienna carries its great past and that of the K.u.K. Austria. In this "most Viennese" of all Schick Hotels, particular emphasis is placed on tradition. The builder of the hotel Leopold Nedomansky was K.u.K. Hoflieferant and the noble name was from the beginning also part of the self-image of this hostel in the best Viennese tradition.

Vienna - a city with a great past ...

... but also a city with a great present. Wherever you go in Vienna, you always come across the imperial heyday of the city of Vienna.

Pompous buildings in Vienna's city center bear witness to its great past. Alongside this, however, a vibrant young city is developing and history and the present get along very well.

The perfect city for a hotel as historic and steeped in history as the 4* Hotel Erzherzog Rainer. For special merits, the Hotel Erzherzog Rainer even was awarded the Austrian coat of arms.

Host of the old school

In the house on Wiedner Hauptstraße, traditional hospitality has been upheld for over 100 years. The famous "extra mile" for each visitor is especially important to the staff here. Guests very often become regulars and are known by name and their associated extra requests. The fulfillment of these wishes is a great concern to the staff at the Erzherzog Rainer.

A great concern of our guests was always the installation of air conditioning. It was with great pleasure that this project was implemented at the beginning of 2019 and now not only the public rooms but also all rooms are equipped with air conditioning.

A jogging round in the palace garden

A walk in the Belvedere Palace Garden is a revelation at any time of year. Admission is free and if you're out early enough, you'll encounter Viennese joggers. If you're athletically inclined, you can join them.

The proverbial Viennese charm will meet you here

If you wish, you can also step out of time at the Hotel Erzherzog Rainer and go back to the days of "kiss the hand" and "my adoration," to "madam" and "gschamster Diener." Even a casual "Servus" is never out of place here.

The Hotel Erzherzog Rainer is designed to give you the feeling of life of that time as good as possible. With "old school" staff, dignified ambience and historical references everywhere.

Awareness of tradition also in the kitchen

The Wiener Wirtschaft also makes reference to the delicious and sumptuous tradition of Viennese cuisine, which emerged from the international melting pot of the former empire. There's the perfect goulash, the classic Wiener Schnitzel, and the delicious desserts that are definitely worth the proverbial sin.

What our guests say

"Nigel" - December 2024 - expedia

A beautifully kept hotel with extremely helpful and polite staff. The breakfast was excellent and the bar and restaurant areas were welcoming and comfortable. The location is good with easy access to public transport links and is only a 10 to 15 minute walk to the town centre. Highly recommended.
