Feel the Exuberance of Beauty

The Amauris is named after the genus of butterfly that the Great Monarch belongs to. Metaphorically speaking our guests are like the Great Monarch butterfly.

One would say that butterflies are just pretty, but they are more than meets the eye. They travel miles and miles, they pollinate flowers, they are a messenger of change in the environment and incredibly inspiring in their beauty.

They are a thing of intricate meaning and beauty. We see our guests as this beautiful butterfly, visitors from afar, exploring the refined qualities of our city and hotel, leaving transformed, with their own stories to tell.

The early historical corner building, built by the renowned Austrian architects Willhelm von Flattrich and Carl Schumann, was initially used as a noble residence and was a popular meeting place for the Austrian nobility and upper class until the end of the monarchy.

Since 2007 a place to stay for international guests, traditional Vienna has always been omnipresent here. The Viennese attitude to life is lived on at The Amauris Vienna. As part of the international hotel association Relais & Châteaux, hospitality, food culture, and the art of good living are at the heart of the hotel.

The Amauris Vienna embodies everything that characterizes a boutique hotel. Houses where the personal touch and excellent service prevail, paired with exceptional and luxurious design. The high level of service, modern furnishings, and family atmosphere make every stay unforgettable. The Amauris Vienna also exudes its very own charm. Selected color worlds evoke cosy comfort and relaxation.

Experience incredible pieces of art as The Amauris presents a unique way of exhibiting art within its walls. Each room holds a collection of pieces, displaying a piece of knowledge in the form of select books, a piece of culture with a work exclusively from Vienna, a piece of nature with curated natural works whose aesthetics match the design of each room, a piece of fun with a board game, and a piece of design that stands out and complements the surroundings of each room. All of these pieces combine to make your stay at The Amauris Hotel aesthetically alluring and worthy of Vienna.

We strive to optimise our daily activities in order to offer our guests a sustainable and environmentally friendly way of travelling. By switching our daily processes to the most modern and up-to-date online solutions, using the latest technology throughout the hotel and using tablets, we save resources such as paper, among other things.

Our kitchen team also strives for a zero waste circular economy in our gourmet restaurant. Our products, which meet our own high quality standards, are almost entirely processed and recycled. By aoffering à la carte breakfasts, we also minimise food waste. We also use local producers for most of the food served in the restaurant and bar & bistro. And that's not all... in the near future we will have a roof garden where we will grow our own herbs and vegetables.

All the lighting in the hotel is energy efficient. By switching to the district heating and cooling system, we are reducing our CO₂ emissions. This helps to keep the historic Ring Road cooler, as noisy air conditioners do not vent hot air into the neighbourhood.
