VIENNA, Austria – Hilton today announces the opening of Hotel Astoria Vienna, Curio Collection by Hilton. The 125-room hotel, located in the historic 1st district of the city, is Hilton’s first Curio Collection by Hilton opening in Vienna, and brings the brand’s unique and stylish design to the capital.

The Art Deco-style hotel has welcomed guests from around the world since its opening in 1912 and is situated on Kärntner Straße, Vienna’s most popular bustling shopping street. Just a short walk from St. Stephen’s Cathedral and the State Opera, the prime location is the perfect for leisure and business travellers alike.

Following an extensive refurbishment and renovation by VERKEHRSBUERO, the hotel is home to a stylish bar and restaurant, one Beletage Suite, seven Junior Suites and four meeting rooms.

Guests can experience genuine Viennese hospitality and traditional breakfast in the Grand Salon with a lavish buffet serving traditional dishes such as Kaiserschmarrn and Fiaker goulash. The new Astoria Bar, located in the elegant lobby area, offers local beers, wines and classic cocktails, such as the signature Garter of the Gracious Lady and Kiss With Love cocktails, both prepared using original historical recipes.

David Kelly, senior vice president, Continental Europe, Hilton, said, “This year marks 50 years since Hilton opened its first hotel in Austria, and the opening of Hotel Astoria Vienna, Curio Collection by Hilton is a great new addition to our ever-growing portfolio of hotels and brands in the country. We continue to see significant demand for our lifestyle hotels across Continental Europe, and I'm excited that Hotel Astoria Vienna will join our growing range of Curio properties across the region, alongside other upcoming openings in Sicily, Athens and Istanbul."
