Where to stay in Vienna

The Innere Stadt (1st district) inside the Ringstrasse puts you within walking distance of St. Stephen's Cathedral, the State Opera, the Musikverein and most church concert venues. Wieden and Mariahilf (4th and 6th districts) around the Naschmarkt are livelier and a little cheaper, Josefstadt (8th) is quiet and residential, and the area near Schönbrunn (13th/14th) suits travellers who want parkland and a palace on the doorstep.
