Hotel: Hotel Kaiserhof Wien (4 Star Rating)
When the Best Western Premier Kaiserhof Wien was built in 1896 on the former "Glacis Grounds" it was ranked as one of the most modern viennese hotels of its day, offering such novel conveniences (for the time) as a guest elevator, central heating, electricity and water in all rooms. The hotel offers rich tradition, but also a quiet and central location close to the imperial heart of Vienna. The top quality service and loving attention to details lend the hotel a uniquely comfortable and relaxing ambience. The hotel is just a short walk away from numerous sights, such as the Vienna State Opera, the Hofburg, the magnificent Ringstrasse, Konzerthaus, and many more sightseeing places in Vienna.
