Pertschy Palais Hotel

Vienna


The baroque, 18th-century-built Palais Cavriani's quiet yet central location, just off the Graben, is hard to beat. Staff are exceedingly friendly, and children are warmly welcomed (toys for toddlers and high chairs for tots are available). Decorated in creams, royal reds and golds, its 55 spacious, antique-furnished rooms have parquet floors. Family rooms have period fireplaces (alas, not in use).
