The Hilton Vienna Plaza, which originally opened in 1988, but has recently undergone a total refurbishment, has been shortlisted for the EHDA 2016 (European Hotel Design Awards). The hotel was opened as one of Vienna’s first design-led hotels, and was re-launched after its €20 million in September 2014. Robert Angell Design International, the prestigious London-based design studio, has overseen the new interior design of the hotel, which is characterized by stylized geometrical patterns. Winners from 2015 include the Mandarin Oriental Bodrum, Les Bains Paris, and the Rosewood London.
