Vienna's historical district is about to welcome a new addition with the upcoming opening of the Imperial Riding School, Autograph Collection, slated for May 2024. This establishment marks the debut of Autograph Collection Hotels in Austria.
Situated in Vienna's third district, in Ungargasse, the hotel is steeped in history, having once served as the Austro-Hungarian military riding school.
The Imperial Riding School boasts 342 guest rooms, while concerning the amenities, there is a 450 m² wellness area complete with a pool, fitness facilities, and sauna. The hotel's garden is situated within the former orchards of the Garden Palace Harrach. Furthermore, there is the Elstar Restaurant and The Farrier bar, while the hotel's outdoor bar serves as a setting for social gatherings and private events.
“Our hotel concept is as diverse and lively as the environment in which we find ourselves here. "An inspiring mix of formality with a pinch of eccentricity, elegance with unconventional charm and Viennese spirit creates an atmosphere in which you can feel relaxed and comfortable," - Jürgen Fleischhacker, General Manager
With its event spaces, the Imperial Riding School caters to both business and leisure travelers. From workshops to conferences, the hotel offers an environment for gatherings of up to 375 guests. Its location ensures easy access to Vienna's city center and the airport.
“The Imperial Riding School, Autograph Collection, embodies a story of Vienna that is still untold and evokes a magical place in this city to new life. The elegant ambience is visually influenced by the history of the house, which is linked to royalty, horses and cavalry, by nature, which is reflected in the blooming garden, and by the artistic impulses of the district - but there is also space for visitors and guests to create their own story.”- Armand Thelen, Director of sales and Marketing
