Boutique Hotel Das Tigra is a privately run four-star city hotel in Vienna’s historic center, where classic Viennese hospitality meets modern comfort with a quietly sustainable mindset. The privately run hotel, now in its third generation, has been welcoming guests since 1972 and is located on Tiefer Graben, just a short walk from St. Stephen’s Cathedral, the Hofburg, and the city’s most important cultural landmarks. Its website describes the experience as “the sound of a friendly home,” a phrase that captures the warm, personal atmosphere at the heart of the property.
What makes Boutique Hotel Das Tigra distinctive is the way it blends heritage, comfort and responsible hospitality without ever feeling performative. Guests enjoy high-quality rooms and suites, an extensive breakfast buffet and attentive service shaped by local knowledge and genuine care. At the same time, the hotel embeds sustainability into everyday operations through energy efficiency, waste reduction, more responsible resource use and stronger local sourcing. According to its nomination materials, the hotel measures impact through indicators such as energy consumption per occupied room, water use per guest night, waste and recycling rates, share of regional suppliers and guest satisfaction scores.
Its approach to sustainability is not limited to environmental measures. Boutique Hotel Das Tigra also supports Vienna’s local economy by working with nearby suppliers and directing guests toward local restaurants, shops and cultural institutions, encouraging a more authentic and responsible form of city travel. This long-term, quality-focused philosophy reflects the values of an independent hotel that prioritizes lasting relationships over short-term gains.
By combining family-led service, a prime historic location and a thoughtful commitment to sustainable boutique hospitality, Boutique Hotel Das Tigra offers a Vienna stay that is personal, polished and genuinely rooted in place.
