Imperial Riding School Vienna
An Insider's Take
'Step into imperial history at this magnificently converted 19th-century riding school, where Austrian nobility once trained their prized horses in the heart of Vienna's cultural district.'
What's Special?
This stunning hotel occupies a historic imperial riding academy built in 1850, featuring soaring ceilings and original architectural details that transport guests to Vienna's golden age. The property sits in the trendy Leopoldstadt district, just steps from the famous Prater amusement park and its iconic giant Ferris wheel featured in "The Third Man."
WhatAHotel! Pro-Tip: Book a room overlooking the internal courtyard to experience the building's equestrian heritage – you can still see the original riding arena layout preserved in the hotel's design.

The nearby Augarten park houses a world-class porcelain manufactory dating to 1718, and the trendy Karmelitermarkt offers authentic Viennese coffee culture just a 10-minute walk away. The historic city center and St. Stephen's Cathedral are easily accessible via the nearby Praterstern metro hub.
