The Park Hyatt has transformed the former Am Hof bank into an urban palace, and Vienna finally has a contemporary 5★ worthy of its imperial stature.
Park Hyatt Vienna
From
1,000 €
“1,500 m² spa with 15-metre pool under a glass roof, the largest wellness complex in a Viennese palace.”
The Park Hyatt Vienna occupies the former central bank on Am Hof square, a stone’s throw from St Stephen’s Cathedral. We slept in a 42 m² room with solid oak parquet, Carrara marble in the bathroom, 3.80-metre ceilings. The 1,500 m² underground spa with 15-metre pool under a glass roof justifies the detour on its own, we spent three hours there without noticing time fly. The Bank Brasserie & Bar serves revamped Austrian cuisine in the former teller hall, original chandeliers preserved. Service is polished, discreet, never obsequious. From 1 000 € a night, it’s the contemporary palace Vienna has been waiting for for fifteen years ✨
Who is it for?
Who we recommend it to
We recommend the Park Hyatt to travellers seeking a contemporary palace without forgoing classic Viennese comfort. It’s an address for fortysomething couples and up, opera weekends, business dinners, urban wellness retreats. Families find their place here thanks to spacious rooms and adapted service, but the clientele remains mostly adult and international.
The building
Architecture and interiors
The Park Hyatt Vienna occupies the former headquarters of the Austrian central bank, a 1914 neoclassical building on Am Hof square. Complete renovation in 2014 by Denniston Architects, which preserved the original chandeliers and wood panelling in the lobby while injecting Carrara marble, solid oak, pearl-grey and bronze tones. 150 rooms spread over six floors, ceiling heights between 3.50 and 3.80 metres. The former vault now houses a private meeting room of 25 m².
