HOTEL CONGRESS

***

Welcome to Hotel Congress

  • "Service is our pleasure"
    is the slogan in the centrally located 3 stars hotel. The Hotel  Congress was built in 1900 as the HOTEL RIVA, it already housed the guests of Emperor Franz Joseph at the time. They came from the south of Europe by train to Vienna for all reasons. One of the guests was Franz Kafka who met Milena here in 1917 (Letters to Milena).
    Today the Hotel Congress Congress offers modern comfort and it is situated near the Schloß Belvedere (castle)  and Schweizer Garten, vis à vis the train station "Vienna South".
    Vienna has many different aspects to its appearance, from the historic center with its magnificent edifices dating from many different centuries, to the former provinces outside the once-standing city ramparts, to the green hills of the Vienna Woods. The baroque Belvedere Palace lies very close to the historic center. It was built in 1723 by Eugen, Prince of Savoyen-Carignan known also as the "noble knight". The castle gardens are one of the most important baroque gardens in the French style in all of Europe.
    However, the sights of Vienna are not the only reason for a visit. Window shopping while strolling through the pedestrian zone of the inner city, a musical, a night at the Opera or a cozy evening at one of the "Heuriger" (wine tasting taverns) in Grinzing are only some examples among many possibilities that Vienna offers its visitors..                   

All 75 rooms (12 single rooms, 50 double rooms, 10 three-bed rooms with shower and bath, 
3 apartments with bath/WC, living-room with kitchinett for 1 to 4 persons) are equipped with: 
minibar, radio, cable/sat TV, phone, fax and internet access.
