Palais Coburg

The First MICHELIN Key Hotels: All the Keys in Austria

"An elegant, luxe hotel steeped in history in Vienna." - Le Guide MICHELIN

"Palais Coburg Built between 1840 and 1845 by Prince Ferdinand of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha,an extremelyinfluential royal family in Europe, the Palais Coburg is a bright and spacious bit of luxury. Opened in 2003 after extensive restoration, the palais has suites (and only suites) that are clean and classy, sometimes even grandiose with antique furniture and vibrantly lit chandeliers. Many suites are named in honor of important members of the family such as Queen Victoria and Albert of England, and King Leopold I of Belgium, so guests will get a lesson in the history of Europe’s intermarried royal families. Outside is a quiet garden with a water basin, shade trees, and magnolias. The outdoor café provides sanctuary from the city and is a great place to enjoy breakfast. In addition to two marvelous restaurants, Palais Coburg has an excuisitewine cellar with some 60,000 from four different centuries."

Palais Coburg Residenz

"In a city larded with palaces, the Palais Coburg Residenz, built between 1840 and 1845, is in a league of its own. Now transformed into a sort of baby grand hotel with just 35 suites, it has a refreshing lack of pomp but all the circumstance. The semi-subterranean entryway allows glimpses of the spectacular banqueting rooms and wine cellars created from the surviving barrel-vaulted medieval brick cellars. This earthy approach softens the aristocratic grandeur that awaits upstairs, where rooms have been decorated with impeccable if restrained good taste. Furnishings vary according to the type of room: The top-drawer Coburg and Palais suites are done in Biedermeier and Louis Philippe XVI furniture, while the less expensive City and Modern rooms feature comfortable contemporary Italian pieces. The spa has a pool, a whirlpool, a sauna, a steam room, a big sun terrace, and a small workout area. Le Coburg restaurant’s modern riff on Austrian soul food is the talk of Vienna and—fair warning—books up weeks in advance."

"There’s more to Vienna than the centuries-old splendor of the city center, the living museum that’s roughly bounded by the Ringstrasse. But what more, exactly, is a question for another time — at the moment that centuries-old splendor is precisely what we’re concerned with, in the form of the Palais Coburg, a 19th-century neoclassical palace that’s currently doing business as an old-school top-of-the-market grand hotel." - Tablet Hotels
