About
Hotel Gilbert
Hotel Gilbert is a 4-star boutique property on Breite Gasse, a quiet street in Vienna’s 7th district. The hotel mixes modern design with a historic shell, and its atrium-style lobby—topped by a peaked glass ceiling—fills the space with natural light. Guests consistently single out the friendly staff, the generous breakfast, and the location, which puts the MuseumsQuartier, Burgtheater, and the city’s main sights within an easy walk.
The 38 rooms and suites are allergy-free and soundproofed, with carpeted floors, air conditioning, and tea-and-coffee facilities. Higher categories add balconies or courtyard views. On-site, you’ll find a restaurant, bar, sauna, and fitness centre, plus a 24-hour reception and paid airport shuttle. Breakfast is served in a bright room where coffee and soft drinks are available throughout the day—a small touch that guests remember.
