The Cloud One Hotels in Vienna
Hotels in Vienna for design enthusiasts
Vienna is a city where you can have Kaiserschmarrn for breakfast and be sitting in a concert hall in the evening without getting into a car even once. That’s exactly how we’ve designed our selection of hotels in Vienna: right in the heart of the city, with everything within easy reach and a reception that’s there for you round the clock.
Vienna has hotels in every price range, but surprisingly few that take the historic cityscape seriously whilst still being furnished in a contemporary style.
At The Cloud One, you’ll find design hotels in Vienna that work with the architecture rather than obscuring it: high-ceilinged spaces, light-filled rooms, materials with character, and a lounge where you’ll want to linger even if you’re not staying in a hotel room.
All properties have free Wi-Fi, a lounge with a bar and a reception staffed 24 hours a day. This applies even if your train doesn’t arrive until after midnight.

Our hotels in Vienna: Vienna is more than just a capital city
You can explore the city centre on foot in an afternoon: the Ringstrasse, the Hofburg, the Albertina, St Stephen’s Cathedral. For everything else, there’s the underground. That’s why location is more important than almost anything else when choosing a hotel in Vienna. If you stay right in the heart of the city, you’ll save on travel and gain time.
A few tips for your stay:
- Museums: The Museumsquartier, the Albertina and the Belvedere – home to Klimt’s ‘The Kiss’ – are all close to the city centre and can easily be visited in a single day.
- Schönbrunn: You can reach the palace and gardens by underground in about a quarter of an hour from the city centre. It’s best to go in the morning when it’s still quiet.
- Naschmarkt: Busiest on Saturdays, more relaxed on weekdays. You can have breakfast in many of the cafés right by the market.
- Coffee house: Vienna’s coffee house culture is on UNESCO’s list of Intangible Cultural Heritage. A visit is a must, and if you enjoy it with a newspaper and a Melange, you’re doing it all right.
- In the evening: the State Opera, the Musikverein or a Heuriger on the outskirts of the city. Many venues sell standing tickets for the opera at short notice and at reasonable prices.
Business, trade fairs, conferences: hotels for business trips in Vienna
Vienna is a hub for conferences and trade fairs. Anyone travelling on business needs three things above all else: fast Wi-Fi, a quiet place to sleep, and journeys that don’t take longer than the meeting itself. You’ll find all of these in our hotels.
On top of that, you have the option to book meeting rooms if a client meeting is moved to the hotel at short notice. You can find details on our page.
Vienna in every season
The Cloud One offers designer hotels in central locations, from which you can reach coffee houses, museums and the opera on foot or with just a few stops on the underground.
Free Wi-Fi, a 24-hour reception and a lounge with a bar are all included. As a beOne member, you’ll pay 10 per cent less per night with the beOne rate and enjoy further member benefits.
Vienna: a capital city with two faces
Vienna has around 2 million residents across 23 districts and is surprisingly easy to navigate for visitors. The historic centre has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2001, and Viennese coffee house culture is recognised as an intangible cultural heritage. The city combines imperial splendour with a relaxed everyday life. In the morning you might find yourself in St Stephen’s Cathedral, and in the afternoon you could be sitting in a Schanigarten with a Melange. The heart of the city is the Innere Stadt (1st district), with St Stephen’s Cathedral as its landmark. Numerous museums invite you to linger, the Naschmarkt offers stalls, eateries and specialities from all over the world, and Mariahilf is home to the city’s main shopping street.
Day trips around Vienna
Schönbrunn Palace, with its park, Gloriette and zoo, is just a short underground journey away. The Prater in the 2nd district is home to the Giant Ferris Wheel, which has stood there since 1897, and plenty of green space for a stroll. If you’re looking for panoramic views, head up the Kahlenberg in the Vienna Woods. On the Danube Island, you can cycle and go for a swim in summer. The Wachau region, with its vineyards and Melk Abbey, or Bratislava are ideal for a day trip – both are just over an hour away.
Six districts, six sides of Vienna

How to get to Vienna and around the city
- By plane: The City Airport Train takes about 15 minutes to reach Wien Mitte. The S7 is cheaper but takes a little longer.

- Car: Parking in the city centre is limited and subject to a charge. Details on how to get there and parking can be found on the respective hotel pages.

Bradley
The rooms are modern, well-maintained, and spaciously designed; the reception area invites you to relax, and the staff are always courteous and helpful. A small point of criticism is the absence of a snack vending machine, which, however, is not a significant issue. The immediate proximity to the main train station also provides an ideal starting point for exploring the surroundings. Parking facilities are very comfortable thanks to the underground garage, although the fee of 20 euros per night is somewhat high. The breakfast buffet was a bit sparse and somewhat chaotically arranged. But it was sufficient.

It would be super great to have a sauna for the evenings on cold days, but then it would become more expensive

The staff at the reception were very friendly and customer-oriented. The new ambiance is pleasant. A positive point is the change to reusable toothbrush glasses. Room 633 was clean, but the furnishings should still be optimized. A day curtain as a privacy screen is missing (it was there before!), the table needs a desk lamp and a second seat (there was also one before). Then you can also work properly on the laptop again. It would be very nice if these notes were taken into account.
