Trashy with class. Vienna is the cultural, economic, and political centre of Austria and one of the largest cities in Europe. Vienna hosts many international organizations and the city is so rich in history that its city centre is a World Heritage Site.

Vienna is famous for its musical excellence; the combination of cultural, artistic, and historical brilliance gives the city an atmosphere of class. But, we are not going to discuss about the culture of Vienna but its fabulous gay nightlife, and, more particularly, gorgeous gay bars.

Most gay bars in cafe can be found around Wienzeile Street and the Naschmarkt open-air market area. On the other hand, gay clubs can be found anywhere in the city while gay cruising clubs are found near Kettenbruckengasse metro station.

It's artistic, chic & we love it: The Perfect Hotel in Vienna for Gay Travellers!

What makes a hotel perfect for gay travellers? Is it is sense of design? Or its premium location (nearby the gay scene)? Maybe it is just about its friendly atmosphere. Well, Hotel Beethoven combines all the above seamlessly, so one could say that this is the perfect hotel for gay travellers.

The hotel's fine location will bring gourmet foods, stalls and lifestyle bars right on your doorstep. The Opera, Musikverein and Museumsquartier are only a few minutes' walk away. And the best part: most gay bars are 10-15 minutes' walking from the hotel.

Last but not least, the   Beethoven Wien's rooms are decorated with vintage and modern wallpapers, while they are spacious and definitely Instagrammable. You can choose where you want your room to look over like the inner courtyard or the traffic-calmed Papagenogasse.
