Mandarin Oriental has made its Austrian debut this month with the opening of Mandarin Oriental, Vienna. An exquisite restoration in the heart of the city’s prestigious First District, Mandarin Oriental, Vienna is located within the historic Ringstrasse, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Originally built in the early 20th century as a courthouse by Austrian architect Alfred Keller, the building has been transformed into a warm and inviting haven by luxury interior design studio Goddard Littlefair.
Spanning four floors, the hotel’s 86 rooms and 52 suites have been conceived as serene sanctuaries, bathed in natural light and crafted with bespoke furnishings and soft neutral palettes. Each space evokes the charm of Vienna while exuding understated elegance and calm, Secessionist-inspired fabrics and thoughtfully designed bathrooms.
At the heart of the hotel lies a beautifully restored courtyard, with arrival spaces showcasing sculptural chandeliers and the original grand staircase.
Mandarin Oriental, Vienna presents a curated collection of dining experiences that reflect the city’s cosmopolitan spirit and culinary sophistication under the direction of Chef Thomas Seifried. Each venue celebrates seasonal ingredients, local influences and international flair, set within spaces that combine timeless design with modern refinement. Chef Seifried oversees the hotel’s four dining venues, uniting Austrian heritage with a cosmopolitan perspective to set a new standard for contemporary gastronomy in the capital.
The hotel’s spa offers a holistic approach to wellbeing inspired by the city’s artistic and musical heritage. Locally inspired treatments blend traditional Asian therapies with the rhythm and emotion of Vienna’s culture. Each experience, from waltz-inspired bodywork to gong baths, invites guests into a world of balance, harmony and renewal.
To celebrate the opening of Mandarin Oriental, Vienna, the hotel has introduced a “Be the First to Stay” package, which includes daily breakfast, hotel credit, a welcome cocktail, and a cultural gift.
