Austrian Senator Lounge Vie Non
★2.9(49 reviews)VIE
Austrian landscapes, beech trees and a full bar — the Senator Lounge at Vienna.
The Austrian Senator Lounge is Austrian Airlines' Star Alliance Senator-tier lounge at Vienna. Remodelled in February 2018, it carries a design that leans hard into Austrian landscape and culture: large-scale mountain panoramas run along the walls, specially conserved Austrian beech trees dot the space, and the lounge is hung with artwork and pictures by Austrian artists. It serves a hot and cold buffet alongside a full bar of soft drinks, house wine, beer and liquor, and is listed with a paid-entry route as well as Star Alliance Senator and Gold access. The important context: Austrian is mid-rebuild at Vienna. In December 2024 the airline opened a temporary lounge at the non-Schengen Gates G area that combined the previous Business and Senator lounges into a single space, with a permanent lounge planned for 2027. This listing reflects the Senator Lounge's character and offering, but the room you actually reach may be the combined temporary lounge — check current signage on the day.

A pleasant, quiet space for light work before a flight, with seating and Wi-Fi, though it's primarily a relax-and-dine lounge rather than a dedicated workspace.
A complimentary hot and cold buffet served alongside a full bar of soft drinks, house wine, beer and liquor. The Senator Lounge's offering is built for Star Alliance Senator and Gold travellers to eat and drink properly before a departure from Vienna.
