Holidays in Vienna – Before the Rush

Vienna’s famous Christmas markets open on 6 November – the perfect opportunity to enjoy the festive charm before the December crowds arrive. Explore the magic of Rathausplatz, soak up the artsy flair of Spittelberg, discover regional treasures at Am Hof, or wander through the Belvedere’s Christmas market framed by its palace gardens.

And after a day of festive exploring, retreat to your suite at SO/ Vienna. With views stretching across the city, you can experience Christmas lights from above – stylish, private, and uniquely SO/.

Insider tip: Sofia’s personal favorite is the Christmas market at the Old University – cozy, charming, and full of festive surprises.
