Max Brown 7th District is a boutique hotel with clearly stated priorities: ultra-comfortable beds, excellent coffee, great music, and a killer location in Vienna’s stylish and central Neubau neighborhood.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Independent boutiques and galleries line the surrounding streets of Neubau. The MuseumsQuartier is just a ten-minute walk away.

The rooms
Rooms range from small to extra large. Inside, vintage rotary phones and local photography sit against bold, colorful walls.
Restaurant
Seven North
A clay tabun oven turns out whole roasted cauliflower in the open kitchen, steps from a cocktail bar with velvet stools.
the Vienna iteration, like its other outposts in Amsterdam, Berlin and Düsseldorf, flies the local flag… with an all Viennese art collection to rival any of the city's notable assortment of museums.
