Daniel Vienna - Vienna

Favouring smart spaces over frills and fuss, Daniel Vienna is a brilliant base for couples or solo travellers who value location and thoughtful design. You’ll find a fabulously quirky art installation and beehives crowning the roof, while inside, rooms are stylishly stripped back. Plus, there’s an on-site bakery for early morning pick-me-ups and complimentary Wi-Fi. During the warmer months, hire one of the hotel’s bikes, and breeze about exploring the city’s historic centre – just over two miles away.

Set beside the elegant Schloss Belvedere and lush botanical gardens, this hotel’s address is cultured and convenient. Vienna’s historic centre is around two and a half miles away and there’s plenty of tram stops nearby if you’d rather glide in. Admire wonderful Austrian works at the Leopold Museum or marvel at modern exhibits at the Mumok Museum, both are just two miles from your front door. The spires of St Stephen's Cathedral are three miles away, while the baroque beauty of Schonbrunn Palace is four miles out. Vienna International Airport is around 11 miles from the hotel.

Clean and considered, rooms feature soft lines and pops of playfulness. Whitewashed walls, warm wood accents and black leather headboards keep things minimal. Opt for a light-filled Hammock room to kick back in your very own hammock or upgrade to a Panorama room for views of the city. Every space comes complete with thoughtful details, including rain showers, super-flat TVs, sleek, green-tiled bathrooms and soft white bedding. For something totally unique, book the American trailer parked out front. This retro mobile home has been reimagined with a modern interior, free-standing tub and fold-out bed.
