The famous Sacher Hotel was first opened in 1876 by Eduard Sacher. Since 1934 the Gürtler family has owned it, working hard to preserve the tradition and elegance. The hotel is widely known for providing scenery for The Third Man film and for its Sachertorte chocolate cake. The red-clad doormen will usher you inside, where you can admire the imperial grandeur, dating back to the times of Prince Metternich.
