About
Vienna's oldest hotel is located directly in the city center, only 164 feet away from Saint Stephen's Cathedral and in the immediate vicinity of many other sights. Free WiFi is available, and a parking garage can be found within 984 feet of the property (available for a surcharge). Founded in 1746, Hotel König von Ungarn (King of Hungary) first served as the guest house of the archbishop and is especially popular with cultural travelers and lovers of opera, concerts and theater. All rooms are individually designed and charmingly furnished. The glass-covered interior courtyard invites to relax in a traditional ambiance. Enjoy a diverse selection of refreshing aperitifs and cocktails at our Atrium Bar while you soak in the soothing ambiance of our oasis. Our bar offers a variety of small, warm snacks that perfectly complement your drinks, making your stay with us a delightful experience. A short walk of a few minutes takes you via St. Stephen's Square and Kärntner Straße to the State Opera. Stephansplatz Underground Station that connects to Line U1 and U3 can be reached within a 3-minute walk. The name was inspired by the Hungarian nobility, who used to stay here in the times of the empire. In the adjacent Mozart House, Mozart composed “The Marriage of Figaro”. Hotel König von Ungarn is mentioned in books by Sándor Márai and Julio Cortázar, among others.

All are good. The staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful, especially at the front desk. Room was spotlessly clean, spacious, and very comfortable, with a fantastic city view. Great value and a truly pleasant experience. I'll definitely be back!
Rooms were nicely appointed and the atrium bar is wonderful. Michael at the front desk went above and beyond to make sure the 5 of us were comfortable and taken care of. Location could not be better!
Ideal location for city center just steps from the cathedral. Wonderful breakfast and staff.
Rooms were small with dated furniture and worn carpet.
Location is excellent for visiting Vienna. Close to the U and St Stephensplatz. Very good breakfast.
Our room did not have an outside window. Window opened to enclosed courtyard/lobby. Stuffy.
The location. The staff. The size of the Junior suite.
The heating in the room was exaggerated.It cannot be completely turned off.
Great location, charming hotel, 24 hour front desk, excellent (included) breakfasts, helpful and friendly staff, large guest rooms and comfortable beds, elegant bar on-site.
Our room faced into the interior courtyard, so no view outside, though that may have cut down street noise. Very deep tub was a bit difficult to navigate. Needed to ask for robes but available.
This was my 3rd stay and it's one of - if not the - favorite hotels in Vienna. The location is superb, the hotel is stunning and the staff - and I mean the entire staff - is amazing. Whether it's room service, breakfast or the lounge - everyone does a great job and is friendly. Everything in the room worked, it's clean and the lounge is nice.
It was a bit hot in my room and I had to keep the window tilted and turn the heater off. I did have some minor issues with the WiFi on my phone where some things didn't work, but it worked well on my laptop. It would be a great to have a gym, but very few hotels in the city center have one so it's expected.
Great location and wonderful staff. Herr Covic was an amazing host.
Everything was amazing; staff, cleanliness, breakfast and location. I highly recommend this wonderful charming hotel to anyone travelling to Vienna!
Perfect location to walk everywhere in the center of Vienna.
The very kind staff, rooms are extremely comfortable and beautifully decorated, lovely breakfast on offer.
Historic ambiance. Lovely breakfast.
The decor in the modern wing needs a refresh
Good breakfast and central location.
No sink to wash hands in the room with toilet. Bath tub is too high, it is dangerous to elderly.
Modern but historic. Great location. Clean. Very friendly and helpful staff
Suggestion. Bathtub was hard to get in and out of. Slippery and too high. Not good for older guests
we liked everything, the polit staff attitude, the very friendly and comfort room, excellent breakfast, top management guidance, quite and enjoyable patio to have a coffee with strudel cake, excellent central location, amongst other options the Konig of Ungarn proved that it was the right and best choice to stay
Location and staff
Stairs and hallways
The location is perfect - right in the center but still quiet. There are many excellent restaurants close by. The rooms are spacious Will appointed and comfortable. And the breakfast is excellent!
Large, lovely room. Staff attentive. Good breakfast.
Some front desk staff was excellent at providing recommendations and travel info, etc. others, not as much. Received some confusing and incorrect information and didn’t seem to know the neighborhood at all. Dry nice hotel
If you like a perfectly located elegant boutique Hotel, then this is it. Couldn't have been more pleased with our experience.And the breakfasts were great. We will be back.
