Graben Hotel (Vienna, Austria)

Situated in the heart of Vienna’s Old Town, the Graben Hotel Hotel is a family-owned establishment offering old-fashioned hospitality, but modern amenities and services. While certainly not lacking in modern amenities, the 56 rooms are furnished with charming art nouveau pieces that give them a timeless classical feel. Each features en-suite bathroom with hairdryer, air conditioning, minibar, TV with satellite channels, in-room safe, telephone and free Wi-Fi. Graben Hotel has a charming club-like lounge, situated just off the restaurant, which is the ideal place to meet and socialise over drinks. Tratorria Santo Stefano is the in-house restaurant, and serves excellent Italian cuisine in elegant surroundings. In summer tables are placed out on the sidewalk, allowing guests to watch the world go by as they eat. The surrounding streets of the Old Town hold much of interest, and are great just to meander around. St Stephen’s Church is barely 300 yards from Graben Hotel Hotel.
