Park Hyatt Vienna
Gold-trimmed decadence in the historic centre
True to its location in the city's Golden Quarter, this opulent residence is resplendent with plush interiors, featuring no shortage of the precious metal. The theme, rather appropriate considering the building was once home to a national bank's headquarters, continues throughout the hotel. The pool, for example, housed in the former bank vault, glows with gold bar-shaped tiles and the all-day dining restaurant is called The Bank.
