After spending two nights in Hotel Bristol<\/a>, I moved over to the Ritz Carlton hotel<\/a> for a different experience. My first Ritz Carlton stay at Tenerife<\/a> was a total disappointment, and I’m hoping for the best this time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unlike Hotel Bristol, the hotel feels very new.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m also upgraded to a Junior Suite for my stay. Service-wise I’m quite impressed, as someone accompanies me to the room with my luggage, and explains everything about the room and hotel facilities in great details. From what I read online Hotel Bristol is known for their great hospitality, but to be honest I didn’t remember anything special there. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The Junior Suite is actually an open-plan corner room, which I usually have a preference to. You don’t see any extravagance and the room may be more on the simple side, but it stills conveys the appropriate luxury message.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

I quite like the design of the minibar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

And as a welcome gift, two bottles of mineral water and a snack ferris wheel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The L-shaped balcony is unfortunately a bit confined, and there isn’t much a view to admire around here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

You can however, see the Hotel Imperial<\/a>, which is a spectacular building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Spa centre is on floor -2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

As I vaguely remember from what the staff told me, it’s the largest indoor pool you can find at any Vienna hotel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

There’s no separate jacuzzi pool or hot tub, but this corner in the swimming pool has got some of the functions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

After swimming, you could try out the sauna or steam room but they are in the changing rooms, which is not very convenient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Club lounge access is priced at \u20ac120 per room, which isn’t too bad if two people are travelling. From what I’ve seen on Flyertalk it’s also not limited to just two people – if you’ve booked a room for three or four (assuming the occupancy permits), you could pay the same \u20ac120 and everyone gets lounge access, which is a great deal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The is the distrikt restaurant where guests have breakfast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

At \u20ac30 per person it’s not cheap, but it’s actually worth a try. Have a look at the menu:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Just as its title suggests, you have a lot to choose from, including some dishes you wouldn’t expect to see on a breakfast menu. Breakfast is open until 2.30pm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It has been a positive experience, and definitely way better than my stay at Ritz Carlton Abama<\/a>. In general I’m more comfortable at new hotels like this one, however the old ones like Hotel Bristol are more of a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and I’d love to visit Hotel Imperial on my next trip to Vienna.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
