Route Description from your Hotel to the City Hall
Hilton Vienna*****
On foot:
From the Hilton Vienna to the City Hall it takes approximately 30 minutes
to walk. When departing from the hotel just walk through the gardens opposite
the hotel - the "Stadtpark" - until you reach the "Parkring"
(referred to by locals as "the Ring") which is the main and
most splendid boulevard of Vienna. Once on Parkring, just follow the direction
of the traffic. Do not leave the main boulevard until you finally reach
the Dr. Karl-Lueger Ring with the "Burgtheater" on the right
hand side and the magnificent City Hall on the left hand side of the Ring.
The attentive observer will note that the Ring has different names, such
as Schubertring, Kärntner Ring, Opernring, Burgring, Dr. Karl-Renner
Ring. However, the different names of the ring all belong to the same
main boulevard, so do not get irritated by this fact. Once you arrive
