On Vienna’s edge amid 5 hectares of parkland and the Vienna Woods, Schlosspark Mauerbach is a 4-star superior hideaway with tasteful, air-conditioned rooms overlooking the grounds. The light-filled spa includes indoor and outdoor pools, a fitness area, massage rooms, light therapy, and a panorama terrace. Five different saunas are available—steam, bio, Finnish, plus a forest sauna house with oak and stone pine saunas. Beauty treatments and massages can be booked. Dining focuses on Austrian and international favorites, served on a large terrace facing the park in warm weather. Half board covers a sparkling-wine breakfast, afternoon tea with cakes and hot drinks, and dinner (choice of mains or buffet). Onsite parking is free; buses link to U4 Hütteldorf, the A1 exit is nearby, and central Vienna is about 12 miles away.
