General Information

The Grand Hotel Wien is famous for being at the very hub of Viennese social life since the turn of the 20th century. The magnificent spirit of Belle-Époque is ever-present in the careful blend of the latest technologies and comforts.

History

The legendary Grand Hotel on Vienna's Ringstrasse, was built in the 1860's according to the plans of Karl Tietz, one of the most celebrated architects of his time. The architectural style of this period takes its name from the famous boulevard "Ringstrasse" itself. The era was noted for the charm and elegance of the "K & K" (Imperial and Royal) Monarchy and by a city dancing to the music of the Strauss family.
