Hotel Cristall
Vienna (Austria)

The historic city centre can be reached in just a few minutes by using the underground U1. The underground stop Praterstern is located just a few footsteps from the hotel.

The "Hauptallee", the main street of the famous Viennese Prater has its starting point at the back side of the building reachable through our garden.

The Hotel Cristall is located in the next area of the Messe Wien (Vienna Fair Ground) und the Vienna International Center.

The Hotel offers the typical Austrian cozy atmosphere with the flair of the capital of music and culture.

Because of the equipment and the location of the hotel, it is suitable for business guests as well as for city tourists. All our rooms are furnished traditionally and equally they offer all modern comfort

Vienna?s appearance is manifold from the historic city centre with its magnificent buildings from many different centuries, to the former villages outside the once-standing city ramparts, to the green hills of the Vienna Woods.

Very close to the city centre there is the Prater, a natural park that covers more than 5 square kilometers and was an imperial hunting ground until 1766

Today the Prater has lakes from old tributaries of the Danube, meadows, grand boulevards lined with chestnut trees and the fun park with its merry-go-rounds and rollercoaster?s. However, the sights of Vienna are not the only reason for paying a visit.

A window-shopping stroll through the downtown pedestrian zone of the historic city centre, going to a musical or concert, or spending a cozy evening at the "Heuriger" (wine tasting tavern) - all these are only some examples for the many possibilities that Vienna offers to its visitors.

A TRADITIONAL HOTEL

Along the streets leading to the Prater there once were inns where the coachmen could take a rest with their horses. A modern hotel business has emerged from such inns with its old arched vaults intact.

Breakfast buffet is served in our restaurant. The green garden invites you to enjoy an open-air breakfast in summer or to relax with a drink after a stressful day.
