4-NIGHTS FOR THE PRICE OF 3

NEW YEAR SHOPPING

VIENNA

Made to Measure Holidays offer a ‘4 for 3’ break to bag those bargains amongst the designer boutiques and café society of Vienna, cosseted in 4-star comfort after pounding the pavements at the Hotel Astoria, departing Heathrow 4^th January 2007.

The Hotel Astoria, conveniently located in the heart of Vienna’s Kaerntner Strabe, (recently designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site), and just a few steps away from the famous State Opera House. This superior hotel is steeped in classic Viennese charm and tradition and a synonym for Austrian hospitality, the perfect starting point for a memorable stay in Vienna amidst cultural highlights like the Hofburg and Saint Stephen's Cathedral. After a day wandering the streets laden with designer-labelled bags and sipping frothy mochas in one of the famous cafes, head back to the cosy hotel bar for cocktails before an evenings performance at the Opera House or take in the views over the city from the Riensenrad (Ferris wheel). Next day, delve into the numerous cultural delights Vienna has to offer such as the Imperial Palace, Spanish Riding School and many important museums including the Österreische Gallery home to the permanent exhibition by Viennese artist Gustav Klimt, along with paintings by Renoir, Monet, Manet and Van Gogh. If a little aural inspiration (or the lack of it) is required, why not step on down to St. Marx’s cemetery, Mozart’s final resting place or visit the various residencies Beethoven laid his head. Whether ‘shop ‘til you drop’ or cultural capers are your interest, Vienna offers both to the highest standard.

The break costs from £449 p/p (4-nights for the price of 3) including scheduled flights from London, 4-star half-board accommodation, Vienna card offering 72hrs of free public transport, discount on CAT service and discounted admission to various exhibitions and galleries.
