Construction on the Hampton by Hilton Vienna City West hotel is due to start this month ready for opening in 2024.

Hampton by Hilton Vienna City West will be operating company Primestar Group’s first site in Austria, continuing the firm’s cooperation with Hilton. This franchise agreement signing adds to Primestar’s existing five Hampton by Hilton hotels in Germany.

Europe’s largest

Dieter Esslinger, director operations at Primestar Hospitality, detailed: “With 358 rooms, the Vienna hotel will be the largest Hampton by Hilton in Europe.

“In the new hotel building at Diefenbachgasse, a comprehensive range of services will be available to guests with free high-speed WiFi and free breakfast, fitness centre, open lobby and underground car park.

“Vienna is one of the most popular travel destinations worldwide, both in the leisure and in the business and congress segment. With its central location near Westbahnhof and Schönbrunn Palace, the Hampton by Hilton Vienna City West will be attractive for national and international guests.”

Renewed trust

Primestar Group’s MD Andreas Erben commented: “Our special thanks go to Lambert Immobilien and W-One Capital as investors, builders and landlords of the hotel complex for their renewed trust in a successful partnership.

“We have already been able to realise numerous joint projects with Lambert Immobilien and their cooperation partners, most recently the dual hotel complex Holiday Inn Express/Hampton by Hilton Munich North (528 rooms), which opened in March 2022. Other successful projects include the Holiday Inn Express Düsseldorf Hauptbahnhof (2021, 455 rooms) and the Hampton by Hilton Berlin City Center Alexanderplatz (2017, 344 rooms).”

With Primestar Operator, Primestar Group also launched its own brand, June Six, in the city boutique hotel segment, with plans to expand the June Six portfolio to up to 20 properties. This includes June Stay, a long-stay concept, and workspace network WorX.
