Close to the famous Naschmarkt market, in the southern part of Vienna, not far from the Karlsplatz subway station, in a residential area of the 4th district. Vienna airport is 15.5 miles away, count 25 minutes for transfers. By taxi, the fare is approximately 31 pounds sterling.
The Kaiserhof rooms have fitted carpet, a surface of 215 feet², and are well-decorated with pretty paintings on charming walls painted in light yellow like the rooms in Schönbrunn castle. They have satelllite television with 21 channels, two twin beds, an armchair, a desk, a minibar, a telephone with wireless Internet connection, and a free safe with key. All rooms have individual air conditioning. The bathroom is very small. It includes a tub with handles and flexible shower (or, in some rooms, a shower without tub), toilets in the room, welcome toiletries, handkerchiefs, a hair dryer, and a make-up mirror. Room service until midnight. The 17 luxury rooms are larger (269 feet²) and have a canopy bed and double sink.

Last, the 3 suites have a surface of 645 feet² and offer jacuzzi, a king size bed, tea of coffeemaking devices, a plasma screen, a DVD player, and a Nespresso coffee machine: full luxury!
Renovated for the last time in 2007, the Kaiserhof is in a 6-storey building, built in 1896, and offering 74 rooms accessible through an elevator. Open all year round, the Kaiserhof hotel has a full accommodation capacity of 144 guests. The lobby bar is in a magnificent lounge decorated with portraits of Emperor Franz-Josef and his wife, Empress Sissi. A cosy and very quiet environment also featuring a library and a piano. You can relax in the sofas and read international newspapers. Everywhere in the hotel, you will notice the attention to details, original sculptures, chandeliers and beautiful rugs, as well as numerous portraits of the Emperor: the Kaiserhof (the house of the Emperor) certainly deserves its name! A glass roof allows sunlight to flood the base of the staircase, which gives the setting a lovely touch.
As is the case for many Vienna hotels, the Kaiserhof does not have a restaurant for numerous restaurants can be found everywhere in the city. Breakfast is served as a buffet from 6:30 to 10:30 AM in a beautiful room combining modern and traditional styles. You will appreciate the portraits of Emperor Franz-Josef and his wife, Empress Sissi.
A member of the Best Western Premier hotel chain, the Kaiserhof allows you to relax, free of charge, in a sauna, hammam, and fitness room with television, showers, and toilets. The relaxing room features pleasant music and offers towels, bathrobes, slippers, handkerchiefs, and a free minibar. You can even weigh on a scale. Pets are allowed for 8 pounds sterling per day. A computer with free Internet access and printer is at your disposal in the lobby. A detailed map of Vienna is posted in the lobby, which is very convenient to find directions. Last, please note that the Kaiserhof was elected best Best Western hotel of Central Europe for four consecutive years, from 2000 to 2003.
