Vienna Dungeon

Are you looking for some dark, scary place to go while in Vienna? if so you might have heard of London Dungeon and would be curious to know whether such a dungeon can be found in Vienna as well. The truth is that there are no such dungeon in Vienna, the closest to this kind of action might be what you can experience at the different activities in Wurstelprater.

So, no Vienna Dungeon available yet, but as soon as it comes (if it comes), we will be here to tell you about it. Until then, travel to London, Amsterdam, Edinburgh or York to visit another of the official Dungeons available currently!

Hard Rock Cafe coming to Vienna?

We are still waiting, but today I just read somewhere that they heard in Barcelona, that a Hard Rock Cafe restaurant would in Vienna by the end of 2012. Who knows, but it sure would be great. Since December 14th, 2011,  a Hard Rock Cafe can be found in Budapest as well, so it is for sure time for a Hard Rock Cafe to open in Vienna as well. We will be back with more information about Hard Rock Cafe in Vienna as we get to know more. If you know anything go to the Hard Rock Cafe Vienna page and write a comment there to let us know!
