Property Amenities
Built in 1863, the Hotel Imperial was originally a palace, and its public areas still reflect its past. Chandeliers hang from the ceilings, corridors are decorated with marble columns and period grandfather clocks, and the lobby is scattered with rococo-style chairs. The elegant wood-paneled Restaurant Imperial is hung with oil paintings and the secluded Maria Theresia bar lets guests sip cocktails on turn-of-the-century sofas.
Musikverein, located adjacent to the hotel, is known as the home of the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra and the New Year's Concert.
A small gym on the fifth floor features step, running, and weight machines, free weights, and a dry sauna. A hairdresser prepares guests for a night at the opera. The business center has two computers with flat-screen monitors, printers, phones, a photocopier, and ergonomic chairs. Seven function rooms, including a grand festival hall, can be used for meetings or events.
Rooms
This hotel has 138 guestrooms, all of which are furnished with silk wallpaper and filled with antique rococo-style furnishings. The hotel's late-19th-century origins are reflected in each room's decor: period oil paintings hang from the walls and rooms are lit by rococo chandeliers. Bedding and drapes are in rich brocades. All rooms have dial-up Internet access (surcharge). Marble bathrooms have oversized basins, deep baths, and bathroom scales.
Room Amenities
Dining
Restaurant Imperial - This elegant fine-dining restaurant serves dinner in a dark-wood-paneled dining room. High-backed armchairs are seated around candle-lit linen-clad tables adorned with seasonal centerpieces and separated from one another by period frosted-glass screens. Signature dishes include a Supreme of Quail on truffeled Black Salsify.
Café Imperial - Serving breakfast, lunch, and light dinner, the Café Imperial's coffee-house atmosphere attracts locals as well as hotel guests. Waitresses dressed in starched blue-and-white uniforms serve the hotel's famous Imperial Torte and Viennese coffee on monogrammed china. In the afternoons there is live piano music.
Bar Maria Theresia - The Maria Theresia's smoothly curved bar, rococo-style sofas and armchairs and cunningly-designed private nooks make this a highly atmospheric location for a post-business or pre-dinner drink. In summer, the bar extends into an open-air terrace.

I stayed at the hotel imperial for a 5-day visit of Vienna, and everything was perfect. Staff was great, room was 5-star, and the location is extremely convenient to walk around downtown and take in all the sites
“Experance of a lifetime.”
The Imperial Hotel was the right choice for our trip. We stayed for seven nights and the ambience of the hotel helped us feel like royality. I have been all over the world and to Vienna before but there was something about this visit that just was perfect. Staff was helpful and caring. Can't say enough so I am not going to try. Thanks to everyone

Everything is Good.
“Phenomenal Hotel”
The hotel was absolutley breath-taking!!!!! We felt like a king and queen in our room. King size bed...fluffy pillows...very luxurious. Hotel staff was friendly and prompt, the room was more than clean. At night they would put chocolates on our pillows :) We could not have asked for a better hotel. The location was great, it was near the subway and the downtown shopping. It was above and beyond our expectations!!!!! I would highly recommed this hotel to anyone staying in Vienna. One minor problem when we left...they accidentaly charged my credit card about $300...but they admitted their mistake and fixed it immediatley!
“Beautiful stay - would recommend it & stay again”
We were offered the Elizabeth Suite for a discounted rate when we arrived. It was fabulous. Lovely, imperial style decor with great, attentive service. Just what you'd expect in a luxury hotel.
“This Imperial Feeling...”
The hotel is simply impressive. We stayed in the elizabeth suite for three nights and we really felt like royalty. You must definately enjoy a whiskey and a cigar on the lobby. The restaurant of the hotel is way more than just a hotel restaurant. Simply amazing, this hotel just made our holiday a bit more special.Fully reccomended
“A 'Must Stay' hotel”
This hotel is ideally located and has lived up to it's fabulous reputation. It's centrally located for walking to the historic areas of Vienna. On our next visit, we shall surely stay here again--what better recommendation could I possibly give??!

Innerstadt Vienna, Austria: Most travellers to Vienna will spend the majority of their time exploring the Innenstadt (centre). Neatly circumscribed by the Ringstrasse, this area is largely pedestrianised, with quaint cobbled streets and medieval squares. The city's focal point is the Gothic spire of the Stephansdom and key attractions include the huge Hofburg palace and the Spanish Riding School.
