history
In the early 15th century, the most important inns for merchants, coachmen and carters were on Taborstrasse, which at that time led directly to the city gate of Vienna.
The first written mention of today's Hotel City Central goes back to 1729. At that time it was known as the Weißes Rößl . In 1798, the Weisse Rößl appeared in Vienna's first hotel guide, the Vienna Commercial Scheme . On the occasion of the Reichstag in 1848 , the guest list included “15 delegates from the bourgeoisie” and “two members from the aristocracy” , including Count Kinsky and Prince von Hohenlohe .
The performances of the Budapest Orpheum theater company in the old Central Hotel were an attraction in Vienna at the time of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy . Shortly after the turn of the century, the hotel was completely rebuilt according to plans by Siegfried Theiss and Hans Jaksch and reopened as the Central Hotel in 1921 . In 1990 the hotel group of the Schick family, which also runs the Hotel Stefanie , the oldest hotel in Vienna, took over the Central Hotel and, after renovation work, opened it as a 4-star hotel called City Central .
