The Viennese hotel market welcomes a new player with the opening of Premier Inn Wien City, the first establishment of the British chain in Austria. This project is part of Premier Inn’s expansion strategy, which already operates 60 hotels in Germany.
The building, located near Vienna’s central station, was constructed in 2005 for hotel use and was acquired by Premier Inn in March 2023. Since then, significant renovation work has been carried out, including the modernization of rooms, renovation of bathrooms, and aesthetic improvements both inside and outside. The complete renovation is scheduled for completion by July 2025.
The hotel offers 180 modern rooms, including 29 Premier Inn Plus rooms, providing superior comfort. Room categories include double rooms, family rooms, and options accessible to people with reduced mobility. These spaces have an average size of 20 square meters. Additionally, a private underground parking garage is available, accommodating 31 vehicles.
A strategic expansion in Austria
Premier Inn’s entry into the Austrian market marks a key milestone for the company.
“We are very happy to have successfully established ourselves in Austria and to open our first hotel in Vienna. This dynamic capital is a strategic market for us. We are proud to now offer our customers quality accommodation close to one of Europe’s major transportation hubs.” – Erik Friemuth, CEO of Premier Inn Germany.
