Cocoon Hotels takes over boutique hotel Stadthalle: A green concept for Vienna!
The Viennese hotel landscape is getting a breath of fresh air: The Cocoon Hotel Group has decided to take over the popular boutique hotel Stadthalle. The company, which already operates two hotels in Austria, is thus expanding its portfolio in the capital. From September 1, 2025, the hotel in the 15th district will now belong to the Cocoon family.
The boutique hotel is known for its exceptional greenery, which is reflected in a beautiful courtyard and a lavender roof. Former owner Michaela Reitterer, who passionately ran the hotel for many years, placed a strong emphasis on sustainability and local connections. Despite the change in ownership, the hotel's sustainable concept remains intact while new design impulses and amenities are introduced.
Sustainability in focus
The importance of sustainability in modern tourism cannot be overlooked. According to information from Statista The demand for sustainable travel is constantly growing. More and more travelers want socially acceptable, resource-saving and environmentally friendly vacation offers. According to current forecasts, the eco-tourism market volume is expected to increase to $300 billion by 2026.
Cocoon managing director Harald Witulski emphasizes that the boutique hotel Stadthalle is a prime example of successful sustainable tourism. The focus on naturalness, warmth and diversity should remain deeply rooted in the new Cocoon lifestyle hotel. Elfi Harrer, who lovingly built the Cocoon Hotel in Salzburg, will take over the management of the Stadthalle Hotel. Harrer wants to ensure that guests can continue to enjoy an authentic and sustainable hotel experience.
Renovation plans for 2026
The planned renovation of the hotel is scheduled to start in early 2026. The aim is to reposition the hotel as a modern Cocoon lifestyle hotel. The existing sustainable concept remains the heart of the reorientation. The existing sustainable elements such as the lavender roof will be retained while the rooms will be adapted to new design ideas.
The Cocoon Hotels show that they have a good knack for combining stylish living and responsible travel. Guests can look forward to a unique stay that not only guarantees comfort, but also a clear conscience.
The application for the new guests will be done via blog and social media channels, so that you can always stay up to date and follow the latest developments. It remains exciting to see how the boutique hotel Stadthalle will develop under the Cocoon label and what new impulses it will bring to the Vienna hotel landscape.
