Rosewood has expanded its portfolio of luxury
hotels with the opening of the Rosewood Vienna, the brand’s fifth
property in Europe.
Located at Petersplatz, one of the city’s most
famous squares, the Rosewood Vienna is close to many of Vienna’s
cultural and historical sites and just steps from the popular
pedestrian streets Graben, Kohlmarkt and Tuchlauben.
Rosewood Vienna occupies the former headquarters
of the Erste Group Bank AG, a
19th-century landmark that comprised buildings of historic pedigree
including the apartment in which Mozart lived and wrote The
Abduction from the Seraglio.
Today, the bank has been transformed
into the luxurious Rosewood hotel with 71 guestrooms and 28
suites that extend over four of the hotel’s seven floors.

The rooms and suites feature custom-made
furnishings, including a mini-bar of walnut, leather and locally
sourced gray marble, and an opulent bathroom vanity that features
made-to-order lighting from one of Vienna’s leading manufacturers.
Distinctive fabrics by Backhausen,
the distinguished company established in 1849 and renowned for its
Wiener Jugendstil patterns, embellish curtains, chairs, tissue
boxes and bedside notepads.
Facilities at the hotel include a variety of F&B
outlets - including a rooftop bar offer
sweeping views of Vienna’s Old Town, a choice of indoor and
outdoor meeting and event spaces and rooms,
An Asaya Spa, the first at a Rosewood property
outside of Asia, will extend over floors five and six and will
have four treatment rooms and a social suite,
relaxation area, sauna, steam bath and experience shower. The spa
is expected to open in September 2022.
“The opening of Rosewood Vienna offers today's
ultra-luxury travelers a new kind of Viennese lifestyle, one that
is imbued with the rich history of the destination yet the modern
and cosmopolitan outlook befitting this dynamic European capital,”
said Alexander Lahmer, Managing Director of Rosewood Vienna. “We
are thrilled to open our doors to a distinctive hospitality
experience in one of the world's greatest cities.”
The reimagining of the building, which was
originally designed in 1835 by Austrian architect Alois Pichl, was realized by two
Vienna architecture firms, A2K and BEHF, with décor by the London
interior design studio Alexander Waterworth. Kroenland, a Viennese
firm, created the brasserie and rooftop bar on the property’s
sixth and seventh floors, spaces that take advantage of unrivalled
settings.
Rosewood's other properties in Europe include Rosewood London,
Rosewood Castiglion del Bosco in Tuscany, Hôtel de Crillon, A
Rosewood Hotel in Paris and Rosewood Villa Magna in Madrid.
