While drinking the night away has never been a particularly hazardous enterprise in Vienna, finding somewhere half-way decent in the early hours can be awkward. Now for those who go the distance, the centrally located Maxim, formerly a cheesey ‘high class’ nightspot, runs chill out sessions starting at 4am Fridays and Saturdays. Two floors supply house and more relaxing sounds to a varied crowd sprawled amid the low lighting and velour. Easy to find just across the Ring from the Opera and ladies get in free.

Pass through the gates of this seldom visited museum, located just 100 yards from the marauding crowds of St Mark’s Square, and you will enter a place of extraordinary peace and quiet. The beautiful Romanesque cloister of Sant’ Apollonia is a perfect spot in which to sit, read or soak up the spring sunshine. More adventurous visitors can make their way towards the museum itself, a curious mix of paintings, sculptures and sacred objects from Venice’s churches and convents. There is also a space devoted to interesting contemporary religious art – Chagall’s extraordinary ‘Bible’ print series was shown last year.

Calle Obispo #109, entre Oficios y Mercaderes (620216)

Open 24hrs daily. Admission free.

La Mina has a restaurant and two cafés; waiters and bands are shared with Al Cappuccino next door. The patios, located on Plaza de Armas, are a great spot to relax and listen to live son until 11pm followed by boleros until the early hours. The downside is that they can be rather touristy, though. .
