Priority Pass let's you visit 4 lounges in VIE (Air Lounge, Jet Lounge, and the 2 Sky Lounges) but in your case the most viable option is the Air Lounge.
It is located right after passport control in Terminal 1 from where BA is flying (as a matter of fact BA uses it for it C pax too).
As said it is right after passport control but before security as the security check is done at the gate right before boarding.

Where is the Jet Lounge at VIE now?
It used to be before security (in the shopping area) at Terminal 1, but I think it has moved. I have seen a map with it located after the Schengen Area security, but is it on the same floor, or do you have to go up the escalator to the departure gates level?
I have an Aegean flight at the weekend. Many thanks.

It's actually downstairs now, by the B gates. Temporary, I understand.

It is after the security.
When you have gone through the security just head right and you will see it.

Looking for current info on whether there is an arrivals lounge in VIE for international arrivals (J tx and SA*) transiting to a European flight on Austrian.

Hi Bartolo,
there is no actual Arrivals Lounge but as you have an onward ticket with OS on the same day, Lounge Access criteria for OS Lounge will apply (seems you are in J). Both Schengen and non-Schengen OS Lounges available.

Thanks, David, very helpful as haven’t been to Vienna in years. I’m in J (revenue) and have *G status. Which of the lounges would you recommend? I’ve got just over 2 hours (if on time), would like a bit of food and a shower.

Hi Bartolo,
as Star Gold head to of OS‘s Senator Lounges. They‘ll provide what you need (food, shower) although not terribly exciting...
you can find them in the T3 Schengen and non-Schengen areas. In the rare case that your onward flight leaves from the D non-Schengen Gates in Terminal 1 there is a decent enough OS
Lounge after Passport Control (but before Security, which happens at each gate). Safe travels.

If you're somehow departing from D, you would have to clear security in T3 to use the senator lounges and then again at the gate in D. But since you have two hours, I think it's worth it since transit security is usually pretty quick and the biz lounge in D is pretty dire in terms of food (though I don think they have one shower).

Bartolo, If you're transferring to a Schengen flight in T3, clear passport control, security and then use the Schengen Senator lounge; if to a non-Schengen flight from T3, then just clear security and use the non-Schengen Senator lounge.

Vienna T3 is like Munich--one building but different floors. Non-Schengen departures are on the top (third) floor which are G gates and Schengen departures are on the first floor which are F gates. Lounges are on the middle floor at the root of the terminal building. Non-Schengen gate and bus arrivals feed into the middle floor of the terminal for passport control. Schengen gate arrivals are directly onto the first floor (F) and Schengen tarmac/bus arrivals feed into F just at the root of the terminal. In any case, everything is clearly signposted.

Best lounge for napping?
Hi,
I have a 4h 20m layover in VIE on a IAD-VIE-ARN itinerary. All flights in OS business class, *G status and a Priority pass card. Do you guys know if any of the lounges I can access are good for taking a nap? I have only been to one OS *G lounge in Vie before but I cant recall the furniture...
thanks!

Slight tangent: there's also an OS F/HON lounge in VIE, right? Can anyone comment on the quality of it? Trying to decide if it's worth getting to the airport early to enjoy the lounge, as it would be for MUC or FRA...

Also note that VIE has a dedicated F/HON C/I and security check.
