Destinations in Austria for a family stay
Vienna is the destination represented in the Meliá selection of family hotels in Austria. The Austrian capital combines historic landmarks, museums, parks and experiences that make it possible to plan different days according to the ages and interests of the children.
Meliá Vienna is located in the Donau City area, close to the Danube and connected with the wider city, making it a practical starting point for exploring Vienna as a family.
Beyond Vienna, Austria’s other cities and regions offer additional possibilities for family travel, from cultural breaks to holidays centred on nature and outdoor activities. For the Meliá selection covered here, however, Vienna is the principal destination.
Getting there and when to go

The best time to visit depends on the type of family holiday in Austria you have in mind. Spring and early autumn are attractive for sightseeing and spending time outdoors, while summer brings warmer days and winter gives Vienna a very different atmosphere, particularly around the festive season.
