A furnished, extended-stay apartment in Vienna lets you move in the day you land — no deposit, no agency hunt, no utility contracts to set up. At MINT, the nightly rate falls as the stay gets longer: book 28 or more consecutive nights and the Resident tier takes 25% off the standard from-price, so our smallest studio drops to from €138.75 a night. This guide covers what furnished apartments cost across our five Vienna layouts in 2026, what the rate includes, and how to book a monthly stay direct. For the relocation logistics — registering your address, choosing a district, the visa-and-housing sequence — see our extended stay apartments Vienna guide, the hub this page sits under.
Extended stays are where the wider market is heading: according to Savills' 2026 European Serviced Apartment Report, the serviced-apartment sector has grown at a 5.9% compound annual rate since 2019, against 1.1% for the broader hotel market, and ran at 79% occupancy in 2025.
What furnished and extended-stay apartments cost in Vienna (2026)
MINT prices every apartment as a nightly "from" rate, then applies an automatic discount the longer you stay. The ladder is the same across all five layouts:
- 7+ nights (Wochenend+): −15%
- 14+ nights (Fortnight): −20%
- 28+ nights (Resident): −25%
The 28+ night Resident tier is the one most relocators and project-based professionals book. It is a commercial pricing tier — a quarter off the standard nightly rate — and it has nothing to do with the tax rules covered further down. The table below shows the standard from-price and the Resident-tier from-price for each apartment. Every figure carries a "from": these are floor rates, and seasonal demand can push the actual nightly price higher.
| Apartment | Sleeps / size | Standard from-rate | Resident tier (28+ nights), from | 28-night total, from |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mini MINT | 2 / 35 m² | from €185/night | from €138.75/night | from €3,885 |
| Double MINT | 4 / 55 m² | from €205/night | from €153.75/night | from €4,305 |
| Double MINT with Balcony | 4 / 55 m² | from €215/night | from €161.25/night | from €4,515 |
| MINT Artisan | 4 / 65 m² | from €185/night | from €138.75/night | from €3,885 |
| Penthouse Maisonette | 4 / 85 m² | from €375/night | from €281.25/night | from €7,875 |
The MINT Artisan sleeps up to four in 65 m² at the same from-€138.75 Resident rate as the two-person Mini MINT — the most space per euro for a couple or small family. The Penthouse Maisonette spreads two bedrooms across two floors with a private roof terrace.
For context, Savills' 2026 report puts the European serviced-apartment average daily rate at €136. MINT's Resident-tier floor of from €138.75 a night sits at the low end of that band for an all-inclusive apartment a one-minute walk from the Naschmarkt (Vienna's open-air food market in the 6th district). On the aggregator platforms, furnished Vienna apartments run from around €850 a month on Flatio, utilities included — a useful baseline, though quality and inclusions vary listing by listing.
Bottom line: A 28-night Resident stay at MINT starts from €3,885 for the Mini MINT or Artisan, with no deposit and no agency fee. The same period in a traditional lease would require months of rent locked up before you move in.
That contrast is the real story. A traditional Vienna lease asks for a security deposit (Kaution) of three to six months' gross rent, held in escrow, on top of the first month — the City of Vienna's own tenant cost guidance states the deposit "equals the amount of a three to six months' gross rent." That is a minimum of four months' rent tied up before you can unpack. Since the 2023 Bestellerprinzip reform, the broker commission usually falls on the landlord rather than the tenant, according to OIDA Austria — so the deposit, not the agent fee, is what actually stops a relocator from committing. A serviced apartment removes it entirely: you pay for the nights you book, nothing is locked in escrow, and there is no lease to break.
What's included in a furnished serviced apartment
The point of a serviced apartment is that it is ready to live in. A traditional Vienna rental is almost always unfurnished — you arrive to bare rooms and source furniture, appliances and a WiFi contract yourself. Every MINT apartment is the opposite: fully furnished, with everything in the nightly rate. Each one includes:
- A king-size bed, with bed linen and towels provided
- A fully equipped kitchen — cook your own meals from day one
- High-speed internet and air conditioning
- A flat-screen TV
- A washing machine
- An elevator and free luggage storage
There are no separate utility bills to set up and no Austrian bank account needed to switch on the electricity. On a traditional lease, utilities and internet are typically a separate monthly cost on top of rent; here they are part of the rate.
On housekeeping: turnover cleaning is provided, and mid-stay housekeeping is available on request — confirm the exact schedule with the host when you book, as it depends on the apartment and the length of your stay. MINT runs as a host-managed operation rather than a hotel, so cleaning is arranged around your stay rather than fixed daily.
Flexibility is the other half of what you are paying for. The standard minimum stay is two nights; Resident-tier pricing starts at 28 nights, with no fixed end date beyond that minimum and no multi-year commitment. A traditional Vienna lease typically runs one to three years. If your assignment runs three months or seven, you book the nights you need.
This combination — all-inclusive, furnished, flexible — is what corporate relocation bookers increasingly look for. HVS research found that corporate demand was the fastest-growing segment in the European serviced-apartment market in 2024, with just over half of operators expecting it to remain the primary growth driver through 2025.
How to book an extended stay in Vienna
Booking a monthly MINT stay is direct and short. Three things to know before you start.
Minimum stay and the Resident tier. Any stay of 28 consecutive nights or more automatically qualifies for the Resident-tier 25% discount. You do not apply a code; the rate reflects it once your dates cross the threshold. Shorter stays still earn the 7+ or 14+ night discounts.
How Ortstaxe works. Vienna charges a local accommodation tax (Ortstaxe) on shorter stays. The rate is 3.2% of the accommodation payment until 30 June 2026, rising to 5% from 1 July 2026, per the City of Vienna — so a summer stay may straddle that change. MINT collects and remits it as host; you file nothing yourself. The City of Vienna exempts "individuals staying in the lodgings for more than three consecutive months." That three-month tax exemption is a separate rule from the 28-night Resident pricing tier: a 28-night stay gets the price discount but is still inside the Ortstaxe window, while a stay over three consecutive months crosses into the exemption. The two thresholds are unrelated — one is MINT's commercial pricing, the other is City of Vienna tax law.
Booking direct. Reserve through MINT's direct booking page — filter for a 28+ night stay to see Resident-tier pricing — or message the host, Christian, for a custom arrangement such as early check-in or a multi-month stay. There is no platform intermediary and no OTA fee layer between you and the apartment.

Frequently asked questions
What is the minimum stay to get MINT's Resident-tier rate? The Resident tier applies to any stay of 28 consecutive nights or more, taking 25% off the standard nightly from-price. Shorter long-stays still earn a discount: 15% from 7 nights and 20% from 14 nights. The overall minimum stay at MINT is two nights.
How much does a monthly furnished apartment in Vienna cost at MINT? On the 28+ night Resident tier, the Mini MINT and MINT Artisan start from €138.75 a night (from €3,885 for 28 nights), the Double MINT from €153.75, the Double MINT with Balcony from €161.25, and the Penthouse Maisonette from €281.25. All are "from" floor rates; seasonal demand can be higher.
Do I pay Ortstaxe (Vienna's accommodation tax) on a monthly stay? Yes, on stays of three consecutive months or less: 3.2% of the accommodation payment until 30 June 2026 and 5% from 1 July 2026. MINT collects and remits it as host. The City of Vienna exempts stays longer than three consecutive months — a separate rule from the 28-night Resident pricing tier.
Is the 28-night Resident discount the same as the Ortstaxe exemption? No. They are different mechanisms. The 28-night Resident tier is MINT's commercial pricing discount. The Ortstaxe exemption is a City of Vienna tax rule that applies only to stays longer than three consecutive months. A 28-night stay gets the price discount but not the tax exemption.
Do I need to pay a deposit or agency fee? No. MINT requires no security deposit and charges no agency fee. A traditional Vienna lease, by contrast, requires a deposit of three to six months' gross rent held in escrow plus the first month upfront before you move in.
What is included in the nightly rate? A furnished apartment with a king-size bed, bed linen and towels, a fully equipped kitchen, high-speed internet, air conditioning, a flat-screen TV, a washing machine, an elevator and free luggage storage. Utilities and internet are included — there are no separate contracts to set up. Turnover cleaning is provided; mid-stay housekeeping is available on request.
Should I book direct or through a platform? Book direct through MINT's booking page or by messaging the host, Christian. There is no platform intermediary, no OTA fee layer, and custom requests — early check-in, multi-month stays — go straight to the host.
