3rd District

Drop your bags in Landstraße if you want the real Vienna without the museum-piece stiffness of the First District. This neighborhood, better known as the Vienna 3rd district, is where aristocratic history hits the pavement of modern city life. You'll find the Stadtpark to the north and the Danube Canal to the east, making it a perfect, leafy anchor for your stay. It's a place of sharp contrasts. One minute you're staring at Baroque palaces in the vienna belvedere complex, and the next you're dodging commuters on Landstraßer Hauptstraße. The vibe is decidedly down-to-earth. Locals skip the tourist traps and head to Rochusmarkt for a stiff espresso or a glass of Grüner Veltliner at sunset. It’s also incredibly practical. The City Airport Train (CAT) at Wien Mitte gets you here from the terminal in 16 minutes flat. Whether you're here to hunt down Klimt masterpieces or drop €245 on a world-class meal at Steirereck, this district delivers.
