Sweet Temptation. The display at Café Am Hof is filled with treats like homemade Gugelhupf and a variety of cakes.

Need a quick slice of fantastic cake to take home, or perhaps a relaxing afternoon break with coffee and dessert in a welcoming ambiance? The authentic Café Am Hof, located in the elegant Park Hyatt Vienna, is no longer a hidden gem. Sweet tooths and connoisseurs of refined pastry art—beyond traditional apple strudel and similar classics—have long discovered and fallen in love with this Viennese treasure in the heart of the city. This sweet hotspot, accessible both from the hotel lobby and directly via a separate entrance from the Golden Quarter, is a modern space with floor to-ceiling windows offering charming views of Bognergasse. Inside, soft pastel hues, white, and gold dominate, creating a fluid yet cozy vibe. Elegant flourishes and glossy surfaces add a modern touch while simultaneously evoking the feel of a 19th century café, even though Café Am Hof was built just a decade ago.

These chocolate masterpieces encapsulate the magic of the holidays at Café Am Hof in the most delightful way, with each figure telling its own story, wrapped in the finest ingredients and creative design. A must visit for any lover of sweet delights—not just at Christmas!
