Frommer's Review
This dignified, nine-story hotel is on one of the more prestigious streets of the old city, less than a block from St. Stephan's Cathedral. The lobby contains the piano where Wagner composed Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg. Each of the good-size rooms is furnished differently, with some good reproductions of antiques and even an occasional original. Opened in 1931, the hotel was rebuilt in 1982. Try for a room with a balcony and a view of the cathedral. Corner rooms with spacious foyers are also desirable, although those facing the street tend to be noisy. The midsize bathrooms have mosaic tiles, dual basins, heated towel racks, and, in most cases, a tub bath along with a shower unit. Firenze Enoteca, under separate management, serves savory Italian food and has the largest selection of Italian wines in Austria.
