Augarten Hotel

The Augarten Hotel is perfectly located in the center of the Graz,Austria,just 7-minute walk from the old town. The hotel is a landmark and also an art center for organization and exchange of ideas. An elegant eclecticism bonds art and design.ART works from 70 different artists are shown all over Augarten Hotel and furniture by Cappellini and Ligne Roset.

The designer of the hotel is Günther Domenig, who has created a unique modernity with the Augartenhotel’s unusual glass and metal structure in Graz. Domenig is also known as the “architect of the game�, so that this hotel is where guests are invited to play. In the rooms and apartments the furnishing are well arranged in sitting areas, work spaces and balconies or terraces include original art works, which all come together to make space for thought, work and yes, play.


From the light fish and fresh vegetables used in the restaurant to the unrivaled view across Graz,the European City of Culture for 2003, from the roof-top terrace, both intellect and soul are taken care of at the Augarten Hotel.

As a 24-hour bar or the indoor pool ringed by rainbow-coloured “Supra sofas� that Thaler designed using high-density and very high-tech foam. There are also sculptors displayed like museum pieces throughout the hotel.

To enjoy the sight of the old city, take a seat on the rooftop terrace where Gustav Troger’s elongated figure “Jochen Rindt� contemplates the view and Marianne Maderna’s abstract sculpture “Faltung 3� lengthens Augartenhotel’s general verticality.
