"The smart blend, balancing the best of fin-de-siècle Vienna and the new siècle, carries over into the rest of the hotel."

Despite how much there is to do and see in Vienna, many Sacher guests choose to spend a considerable amount of their time parked at the hotel.

"Ever since the Hotel Sacher was founded in 1876 it has been a Viennese institution, with guests ranging from emperors, diplomats and artists."
Frommer's
"The Sacher was built in 1876; and despite recent improvements, partial rebuilding, and renovations which added 40 new rooms and a deluxe spa, it still has an air of Habsburg-era glory." Full review

"This lavish lair feels like a pied-a-terre for one of the Hapsburgs." Full review

And although the rooms and hallways fascinate with a collection of more than 1,000 antiques and original oil paintings, it manages to avoid coming off as too pretentious—the fate of many of its peers in Europe.

Lonely Planet
"Set behind an unpromising mid-20th-century facade, Hotel Capricorno was stunningly made over in 2015 in lustrous velveteens in zesty lime, orange, lemon and aubergine shades." Full review
