A country that is both timeless and opulent, there is nowhere else in Europe like Austria. For your stay in the country of mountains that sing urban elegance, Klimt and strudel, there should be a residence to match: The Austria Collection has 20 outstanding hotels to choose from, ranging from modern and boutique to historic and grand. Travelers can book a dream stay with a curated list of properties, each with Austrian hospitality.

Baroque Salzburg and the Lake Region

Cradled by the Alps, Salzburg is known as Mozart’s birthplace, the film location of “The Sound of Music” and an all-around chic cultural haven. The Baroque gem also offers some of the most exquisite stays in Austria, with cosmopolitan and gilded options.

Imperial Vienna

With a new attitude, Vienna is being revived with modern artists, architects, restaurants and hotels. Centuries of Habsburg legacy also make it a must-see for culture and history buffs (did we mention there's also the best chocolate cake there?). Discover Vienna’s first design hotel and the newest luxury properties.

Alpine Tirol

In the mountainous west, the Austria Collection offers cozy sanctuaries with luxurious amenities. Four breathtaking properties offer their take on Alpine wellness with mineral spas, golf courses and in-house art galleries. One of the best parts: Outside every window you'll see views of those majestic mountains.

Southern Carinthia

Carinthia is Austria’s southern province, which brings with it an almost Mediterranean way of life. Warm weather, a gentle landscape and an easy-going local culture are what make Hotel Trattlerhof part of the perfect Austrian escape.

We never need an excuse to go to Paris, but celebrating a milestone birthday is a pretty good one. 🥐🇫🇷 And if you’re celebrating a teenager’s sweet sixteen? There’s no better place than leroyalmonceau — check out the full story at the link in our bio.

Would you go on a quietcation? One of this year’s biggest travel trends has us seeking out silence—like the kind you’ll find if you’re in Bali on March 19th for Nyepi. For 24 hours, the island goes quiet in celebration of the Hindu New Year, giving residents and guests space to cleanse negative energy, reflect, and welcome in new beginnings.

Sometimes, over-the-top trips look like five-star hotels and private jets. Other times, it looks more like this: taking in the stars while on a guided horseback trek across Mongolia’s wild steppes, deserts, and mountains with pelorusx. What’s more your speed?
