A greeting in Viennese
Servus
[seɐ̯wuss]
A hello from the heart; as a welcome or farewell.
In Vienna, they say Servus to greet you. And Schmäh to humor. If you want to experience typical Viennese charm, be our guest at the Hotel Erzherzog Rainer. Hospitality is lived in our 4* star hotel. For 100 years.
The rooms
Viennese tradition can also be found in the 79 individually designed rooms. You will stay quietly and centrally. In all rooms there is air conditioning and new beds with the best comfort mattresses. But the best, is waking up: Then the fine breakfast buffet is waiting. You will be impressed by the room - paneling and wallpaper from the then K&K court supplier of picture frames. There's no more stylish way to fortify yourself for the day.
Gemütlich
[ɡemyːtliç]
Comfortable well-being with all senses; pleasant.
The hotel
The stylish facade and the lovingly renovated interior give it away: Here lives a piece of K&K history. With the highest hospitality and special service. The hotel received 100 years ago permission from Archduke Rainer to bear his name. We want to live up to this distinction every day. Even though a fresh Lüfterl (Viennese for: fresh wind) is blowing now - since 2019 all rooms are equipped with air conditioning. The best of the past with the comfort of today.
Bummeln
[bʊmmln]
Slow pleasurable strolling; the way is the goal.
The Freihausviertel is one of the hippest parts of the city. Located in the heart of Vienna, it is within walking distance of the Vienna State Opera, Karlskirche, Albertina or Belvedere Palace with its famous gardens. But why the locals love it so much are the small stores and hip eateries. If you want to know what typical Vienna tastes like, stroll to the Naschmarkt and gossip (Viennese for: talk) with the stall owners about fruit, spices, fish, and the weather.
Grätzl
[ɡrɛt͡sl]
The closest environment; where joie de vivre is at home.

Celebrations and meetings
When talking, people come together. The Hotel Erzherzog Rainer offers a unique atmosphere for private, convivial celebrations. But also perfectly equipped rooms for meetings and workshops. Many famous personalities have been guests here: the Nobel Prize winner Madame Curie, Hollywood's social columnist of the 30s Heda Hopper. And many more. When may we welcome you?
Mahlzeit
[maːl t͡seit]
Greeting; synonym for good appetite.
Restaurant: Wiener Wirtschaft
The Viennese charm loves schnitzel, goulash and a Seidel beer (Viennese for 0.3 liters) to go with it. Typical specialties of Viennese cuisine can be enjoyed in the "Wiener Wirtschaft" - our well-known restaurant in the hotel. This is where enjoyment meets coziness. That's why Viennese people love to come and eat here. In summer, preferably in the shady Schanigarten.
