About

Continental Hotel-Pension

Continental Hotel-Pension occupies a prime spot on Kirchengasse, a quiet lane just off Vienna's main shopping artery, Mariahilfer Strasse. The 4-star property is a short walk from the Hofburg Imperial Palace, the MuseumsQuartier, and the Secession, making it a practical base for sightseeing. With just 31 rooms, it keeps a personal, family-run feel that guests repeatedly mention.

The hotel covers the essentials well: free Wi-Fi (in rooms, despite some booking sites suggesting otherwise), daily housekeeping, and a breakfast spread that guests describe as solid, with good coffee and plenty of options. Rooms are clean and quiet, with allergy-free options and parquet floors. Parking and an EV charging station are available, though space is limited.
