Hotel Imperial Vienna
- About three blocks from the Imperial Hotel, Vienna's Naschmarkt market is a real insight into the daily life of the Viennese. Food vendors from all over the world set up stalls hawking produce, fish, meat, cheese, baked goods and preserves, as well as meals and snacks. Items such as clothes and jewelry are also sold.
- The Imperial's grand 1863 façade and two-story wood-paneled lobby presided over by a green and cream marble balcony and giant chandelier, immediately impress upon guests that they are staying in a former palace. Groups of elegant matrons visiting the city for opera and shopping, couples on vacation, and international businesspeople sit on antique sofas beneath the lobby's classical murals.
- Built in 1863 for an Austrian prince, the palace was converted to a hotel ten years later. Its broad staircases and wide corridors are rich in rococo detail, decorated with marble columns, period grandfather clocks, statuary, chandeliers, and gilt mirrors - there are even chandeliers in the changing room of the hotel's compact gym. The rococo theme extends to the elegant wood-paneled Restaurant Imperial and the hotel's secluded Maria Theresia Bar.
