Welcome to Schena Apartments! We’re a small, design-focused team passionate about creating comfortable, stylish stays in Vienna’s most charming neighborhoods. What we love most about hosting is helping guests experience the city the way locals do — from morning coffee at a nearby café to an evening stroll through historic Wieden. Our mission is to combine the efficiency of a boutique hotel with the warmth and personality of a home. We’re always happy to share insider tips, dining suggestions, or simply make sure everything feels just right during your stay.
