Actions
The six die actions of Grand Austria Hotel — strudel and cake, wine and coffee, rooms, money and the Emperor, Staff, and the wild 6 — plus the additional actions.
How the dice work
Choose an Action space that still has at least one die. The number of dice on it sets the strength of the action: you get one unit per die. Carry out the action, then take one die from that space and put it on your lowest visible Turn Order number.
You may take a die and not use the action, or use less of it.
1. Strudel and cake
For each die take 1 
strudel or 1 
cake, in any mix — but never more cake
than strudel.
2. Wine and coffee
For each die take 1 
wine or 1 
coffee, in any mix — but never more coffee
than wine.
Receiving dishes and drinks
Whatever gives you dishes or drinks — an action, a guest, a Staff card or an Emperor tile — you may put them straight onto your guests’ orders, split as you like. The rest goes to your kitchen. Items on a guest stay there.
3. Prepare rooms
For each die prepare one room: take a Room tile from the supply and place it on your Hotel board,
following the placement rules — next to a placed room, front side up,
on a space of its colour, paying the cost of its row. 
A room placed on a space with printed points scores them at once.
4. Emperor and money
For each die advance 1 space on the 
Emperor track or 1 
krone on your
money track, split as you like.
5. Hire Staff
Play exactly one Staff card from your hand. Each die takes 1 krone off its cost; pay the rest. A discount larger than the cost gives you no money back.
6. Any other action
Pay 1 krone and carry out any of actions 1–5 — with the strength of the number of
6s, not of the dice on the chosen space (which may even be empty).
Additional actions
On your turn, before or after your die action (never in its middle), you may:
| Additional action | Cost | How often |
|---|---|---|
| Add a virtual die to your chosen space (+1 strength) | 1 | once per turn |
| Move up to 3 dishes and drinks from your kitchen to your guests | 1 | any number |
| Put a disk on a Politics card whose goal you meet | free | any number |
Use a hired Staff card with a  once-per-round effect, then turn it face down | free | once per card per round |
| Move a guest whose order is complete into a free room — details | free | any number |
