Prominent Guests
The Hotel Sacher – the world’s meeting place!
Throughout its existence, the Sacher has been a popular meeting point for the aristocracy, politicians, business people and artists alike. Its guest book has been signed by celebrities such as the Prince of Monaco and his wife Gracia Patricia, Indira Gandhi, Queen Elizabeth II and John F. Kennedy. Artists, such as Leonard Bernstein, Herbert von Karajan or Marcel Prawy have also been frequent guests.
The glamour of the hotel attracts today, as in the past, numerous prominent and important personalities into the Hotel Sacher. Our hotel enjoys a great deal of popularity during state visits and audiences. Also our proximity to the Vienna Opera House regularly attracts "VIPs" into the Sacher. Anna Sacher, the legendary first Manager of the hotel requested any particularly prominent guest to sign the tablecloth in the reception and begin with this a tradition which is continued even today. Since the 19th century, four tablecloths have been filled, densely signed and embroidered with interesting names. They are carefully treasured in the Hotel Sacher.
