Vienna gay sauna

It boasts modern hotel rooms, co-working spaces, event areas, restaurants, bars, a gym, and lounges to facilitate interaction and connection. And Austrians know how to let loose!

Is Vienna an expensive city?

The best part about Vienna? From flirty Happy Hours, fierce drag revues, and throbbing dance floors - there's always a soiree to dive into.

The best place to observe the lively hustle and bustle is from the cafe's outdoor dining area.

Löwenherz Bookshop

The legendary bookshop in Vienna's 9thdistrict has offered reading material for LGBTIQ+ people for more than 30 years. The venue is committed to supporting the LGBTQI+ community, providing a safe and welcoming space for them to socialize and engage.

With more than 15,000 titles, the range of books is so extensive that you could easily spend several weeks there. Wind through stalls hawking fresh fruits and handmade crafts to spot rainbow flags beckoning. For example, works by Andy Warhol, Gustav Klimt, René Magritte, Francis Bacon and Marc Chagall are on display (picture below: Le Clown au Bouquet, 1970-74).

Marea Alta

The Marea Alta is a one-of-a-kind bar in Vienna.

Located near Vienna’s Praterstern station, The Social Hub offers easy access to public transportation, being just a 4-minute walk to the station, a 6-minute walk to the famous Prater Park, and a 10-minute bike ride to the city center. The hotel provides bicycles for guests to explore the area conveniently. The imperial ambience is particularly worth experiencing.

The Savoy has been around since 1897. The Social Hub encourages personal growth, discovery, and making a positive impact, while also being LGBTQ+ friendly and supportive of the community.

The 5 best LGBTIQ+ locations

Café Savoy

The Savoy is one of Vienna's oldest and most beautiful LGBTIQ+ locations and is not one to be missed.

Catering to locals, travelers, students, and professionals alike, The Social Hub connects passionate individuals from various backgrounds to meet, exchange ideas, and share experiences. So get ready, divas - Naschmarkt calls. You'll be in good hands here no matter the time of day.

Splurge-free fun awaits. And the best thing: The Savoy is directly next to the Naschmarkt. Nowhere else is more colorful and alternative. But he once overdid it a bit, receiving a slap in the face for being a bit too "affectionate".
