But if you're thinking of monotony, you're wrong! For one thing, Vienna House Leipzig offers anything but normal suites. Whether yoga, boxing, golf or table tennis - the theme is the program and is also reflected in the interior design of the rooms. A morning round of yoga? No problem at Vienna House, because the Yoga Suite is perfectly equipped with a sports mat, yoga guide and plenty of space. The hotel in Leipzig also has a special offer for families. A separate children's room with double bunk bed and ball pool invites you to enjoy a cozy family vacation in the middle of the lively city center.

Over 100 artists have their studio in the old cotton mill. The majority of Leipzig's galleries are also located there. You can choose between four rooms of different sizes with industrial charm. The largest room is the former women's washroom of the spinning mill. It can sleep up to six people. If the surroundings inspire your own creativity, you will find a small workshop and a mini-library with catalogs of Leipzig artists in the accommodation. The former industrial site is also the perfect starting point for exploring the cycling, hiking and water trails in the region.

abito suite - luxury with a focus on the essentials
This modern hotel welcomes you both 50 m from Leipzig's central market square and with individually designed suites or junior suites. The 5-star facilities include Italian designer furniture, Treca beds and a trendy kitchen with induction cooking zone. With Wi-Fi, satellite flat-screen TV and an illy espresso machine you are offered a particularly comfortable place to stay. The only thing the suites lack is a comprehensive service. There is no lobby or service here. Instead, you check in via a booking machine. But you can still have a really good time. Every morning, fresh bagels, rolls and muffins are waiting for you at your room door. So you can have breakfast in peace and then relax with a wellness treatment directly in your suite.

The various apartments therefore have many advantages, especially for long-stay guests, as they are all fully equipped and suitable for longer stays despite varying room sizes.
