Best Hotels in Alsergrund, Vienna

Alsergrund might be far north of Vienna's historic centre (still easily reachable by public transporation) but it's a beautiful, historic neigbourhood in its own right. The quiet streets are lined with gorgeous Art Nouveau houses, museums and art galleries, and wide open green spaces abound here. During the 19th-century, it was the epicentre of Vienna's intellectual scene; perhaps this was why Sigmund Freud and Beethoven made it their home. Don't miss the Votivekirche, a beautiful and ornate neo-Gothic church nearby, with its intricate design and glorious stained glass windows. Music fans should be sure to check out Beethoven's old residence Palais Liechtenstein, with its extensive gallery of great works by the likes of Rubens and Van Dyck, while Servitenvierte is a great place for a shopping spree, with all its boutiques and antiques stores. Our pick of the best hotels in Alsergrund is the perfect base for a family trip to the city.
