For bread this old, Bäckerei Grimm has remarkably little interest in resting on its laurels. Bread has been baked on this Kurrentgasse spot since 1536, making it Vienna’s oldest continuously operating bakery, with the current Maderna family at the helm since 1962. The selection runs from sourdough loaves to gluten-free and specialty bakes, but we’d make a beeline for the pretzels: crisp, chewy and, in our book, the best in the city

With sweeping views across Vienna’s rooftops, Neue Hoheit is Rosewood Vienna’s elegant restaurant and bar. From breakfast Wiener Melange and local chive bread to dinner, the menu offers refined takes on Austrian classics with a contemporary touch. Settle in for a Wiener Schnitzel or trout meunière served on marble tables as the sun dips over Vienna, surrounded by mirrored ceilings and sumptuous Art-Deco terracotta velvet sofas.


Named after the year the building was completed, THE1835 is Rosewood Vienna’s intimate rooftop cocktail bar, pairing bespoke drinks with sweeping views across the city. Grab one of its signature cocktails alongside lobster rolls and beef tartare bites, and watch the sun dipping behind the green dome of St Peter’s Church.
