Ambassador Hotel Vienna — Vienna, Wien, Austria

Arts and music, pleasure and relaxation are closely associated with Vienna and the Hotel Ambassador. According to our motto "Arts and Delights" we combine personal enjoyment with classical elements of art and culture without forgetting the pleasures of good food, fine wines and shopping.
On the first floor of the hotel our restaurant "Morwald im Ambassador" with its integrated open view kitchen and the winter garden overlooking the famous fountain by Raphael Donner provides for your culinary wellbeing. Enjoy relaxing moments in our Atriumbar and savor culinary highlights in the classical style "with a modern twist". In the summertime indulge in life's pleasures in our open-air cafe on Karntner Strase.

Relish culinary highlights that are ensured with the exciting concept "Classic with a twist". It offers classical cuisine from around the world interpreted anew and presented with style.

Banquets & Meetings              All our conference rooms are well lit with natural daylight and offer a stylish context for conferences, seminars and celebrations. Equipped with the latest presentation, video and internet technology, they provide space for a total of 100 persons.

Note Bene                        Like a scarlet thread, the themes of literature, architecture and, repeatedly, music run through the history of the building. Musicians of all periods and all different styles have found inspiration here, and indeed often a suitable framework within which to present their latest compositions to the public. From Mozart to the present day, there has been a succession of musicians who have spent time here, sometimes to make music, sometimes to compose or to relax. Works by Mozart, Haydn, Beethoven, Lanner, to name but a few, have been presented to the music loving Viennese public by the masters themselves. Franz Lehar was a close friend of the hotel, and in 1930 handed over to the owners of the Ambassador some autographs, all of which can still be admired in the hotel today. But the special character of this place is not reserved for musicians alone. Writers, actors, dancers, politicians, members of the higher aristocracy, businessmen and industrialists continue to be inspired by this place as they always have been, finding here the rest and peace that they need. The little secrets of these outstanding people - what we call the "guest histories" - are still kept like a valuable horde of treasure in a filing box in the management office.
