Hotel Bristol, A Luxury Collection Hotel

Since its opening in 1892, the Bristol has long been counted among the major hotels of Vienna. It wears its heritage with serious aplomb: antique furniture and art abound. A 2013 renovation brought the dining room up to date, but the stately rooms retain a sense of history (think damask, chandeliers, and, in some rooms, views of the Opera House). The Bristol Bar has long been a draw for local notables; you'll see photographs of celebrities who have had a drink there on the walls.
