Vienna Insider Tips from
Sarah Abd Alla

Our well-traveled receptionist Sarah is a true fan of Viennese coffee culture, but also knows where to find the best Korean food, French patisserie, and a hidden Japanese garden in Vienna.

Only in Vienna

The Viennese coffee house culture, it invites you to linger and enjoy like no other place.

 

Better elsewhere

Beach vacation, Vienna is probably not quite the right place for that.

 

Your Vice

Coffee with oat milk.

 

Sweet Vienna

For sweet sins, the french pastries from the Café Crème de la crème.

Savory Vienna

In the morning in Hietzing to Café Nook or the Waldemar Tagesbar, at lunchtime to Ulrich & Erich and in the evening to my favorite Korean restaurant Gaon!

 

Chic Vienna

Dinner at Restaurant Bruder or TIAN and then to the Musikverein.

 

When it's getting dark

Take a walk along the Danube Canal near Schwedenplatz and then enjoy a break in one of the many restaurants or cafés there.

 

Not in any tourist guide

The butterfly house in the Burggarten. It is a small, tropical paradise in the heart of Vienna.

 

Your favourite spot

The gardens of Schönbrunn Palace, the peacefulness and the view from the Gloriette make this place simply magical.

Not to be missed

The Belvedere with its art collection and magnificent gardens, where art meets history in a dreamlike setting.

 

Selfie Spot

The Setagaya Park in Döbling … It is a hidden Japanese garden, ideal for beautiful photos.

 

Can be missed, despite being found in tourists guides

The Sacher cake … there are many cozy alternatives for an equally good cake.

 

Finally: What do you love about Vienna

Vienna fascinates with its perfect blend of history, culture, and quality of life. It is a city that combines tradition and modernity, with charming old town streets, creative neighborhoods and a relaxed atmosphere that enriches everyday life.
