My Packing List for a 10-Day Trip to Germany | Condé Nast Traveler

"Le Méridien Vienna feels palatial because, surprise, it is! This design hotel comprises four former palaces just off the Ringstraße in Vienna’s city center, and accordingly feels vast in scale. These storied, beautiful bones serve as a sophisticated canvas for some mod design, especially in the lobby and the onsite Restaurant You. This place has the dim, sexy lighting of a hotel cocktail bar, plush velvet chairs of a deep green (with even deeper seats), and a killer schnitzel to tide over picky eaters should your reservations be a little more adventurous. The gym facilities are also incredible, with a huge subterranean pool and a sauna perfect for a post-flight schvitz."
