Overview

Jean Nouvel was one of France's top architects. He designed the Sofitel Vienna Stephansdom. This was preceded partly by a complete facelift of the hotel's hall, rooms, and suites.

SO Vienna is energetic, expressive, and vibrant. Even the most active travelers are always surprised by something new and exciting here. With its unique approach to hospitality, the SO brand is a bright addition to the global hotel market. A keen eye for the latest trends, hip beats, an avant-garde design, and pulse-pounding bars and events are all SO hallmarks.

You will find SO/ hotels in some of the most exciting destinations worldwide. These hotels are world-class destinations where you can experience the best of local culture and enjoy the unique pleasures that it offers. This philosophy comes to life at Sofitel Vienna Stephansdom through the brand's signature perfection and finesse. So it is no wonder that in September 2018, the SO Vienna brand added it to its exclusive portfolio.

That was enough to make the hotel, built in 2010 by Jean Nouvel. The lobby and 182 rooms were also updated. In 2018, the iconic color combination of black, gray, and white was carefully adapted under Gregor Eichinger, a renowned Viennese architect. Additionally, several themes from Vienna's rich history have been reinterpreted and softly integrated into the existing atmosphere.

Moreover, every SO address contains a unique "sense" of place, a soulful hum, and the soul of the destination. Living intensely means not following other people's rules. The hotel allows everyone to be who they are, just as every hotel has a unique personality and style. SO Vienna is the ideal place to be.

Location

The Sofitel is conveniently located in the trendy Donaukanal waterside, which runs through Vienna. Besides, there are many pop-up bars, restaurants, and shops, with a view of the bustling Schwedenplatz. You can view the Prater Riesenrad (Ferris wheel) from the hotel's west side. You can also walk 5 minutes to the old town center, while Stephansdom takes 10 minutes. There are also excellent transport links from the location.

Style and Character

As John Neuvel's modern design philosophy dictates, the feeling here is futuristic. The Stephansdom church's roof is reflected in the black and white color scheme. Fans of minimalism will love the darkened corridors and bedroom sliding doors. However, comfort lovers will enjoy Sofitel's cold shoulder.
