Ruby Lissi Hotel & Bar

A stylish, modern bar features a long counter with black stools, shelves of bottles, mirrors, and ornate crystal chandeliers hanging from the ceiling. Warm lighting creates an inviting atmosphere.

Give Vienna a whirl

Occupying a prime spot in Vienna’s historic 1st district, Ruby Lissi’s as well-connected as her namesake, the adventurous Empress Elisabeth. Drawing inspiration from Lissi's numerous voyages, the bar's a celebration of travel, with a tongue-in-cheek revolutionary twist.


Whether you're on your own grand tour, or just in town for a night, it's a friendly spot to stop for a drink. Drop by to see an up-and-coming band, catch up with friends, or sink a sundowner. And when it's time to unwind, you'll find a haven of Lean Luxury calm in your room.


Sandwiched between Schwedenplatz and Stephansdom, Ruby Lissi is a great base for exploring Vienna's buzzing bar and restaurant scene, along with the city's top museums and parks.

  • Cozy cafe with dark wooden floors, blue velvet bench seating, wooden chairs, and wall shelves displaying vintage suitcases, books, globes, and decorative objects under warm lighting.
  • A cozy, stylish café with round tables, mismatched wooden chairs, red velvet sofas, wall art, and decorative guitars, warmly lit by candles and ceiling lights.
  • A stylish lounge with vintage armchairs and sofas, small round tables with glasses, large industrial windows, warm lighting, and a decorative guitar mounted on the wall.
  • Several ornate crystal chandeliers hang from the ceiling, sparkling with intricate glass beads and prisms, creating an elegant and luxurious atmosphere. The background is softly blurred, highlighting the chandeliers details.
  • A modern, upholstered chair with soft blue velvet fabric, curved backrest, vertical stitching, and four slender, dark wooden legs, set against a plain white background.
Two large framed portraits of historical figures in regal attire with modern graphic elements, including red sashes, patterns, and text overlays, hang on a dimly lit wall near a lift.

Empress meets vintage travel

Following in the footsteps of an Austrian icon, Ruby Lissi takes her name from the 19th-century Empress Elisabeth. Renowned for her globe-trotting diplomacy, Lissi's frequent travels set her apart from other consorts of the day as, criss-crossing the continent, she helped consolidate an empire. That's why we’ve taken design tips from railway carriages, steamships and even hot air balloons, with a few regal details thrown in for good measure. Leather banquettes mingle with plush, buttoned couches and a departure board makes final calls for flights of fancy.
