The Steigenberger Hotel Group will open a four-star superior hotel in the Palais district in the heart of Vienna in late 2008/early 2009. Located in the Old Town district, itself a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Steigenberger Hotel Herrenhof will combine both tradition and modernity, and serve both business travellers and city tourists. It will have 186 rooms, each with an average size of 31 square metres, as well as ten suites – which look out over the rooftops of Vienna’s Old Town – measuring between 60 and 85 square metres.
