    Pros +

    • I liked breakfast and the size of the room. There were three of us, and our daughter had her own real bed. We were given a free transportation ticket - used it to get to the train station on the way back.
    • Food and location were great. The staff helped us book tours etc. They couldn't have been nicer.
    • The staff was very accommodating for our early arrival. Comfortable space while you wait, both inside and outside.

    Cons -

    • The septic system in Europe is notorious for its smell, but even when you know that it’s hard to get used to. It’s a bit removed from the center, but it might be a good thing.
    • My only complaint was the quality of the WiFi. But definitely not the end of the world.
    • The bathroom didn't have a window and could use some kind of perfume or air-freshener.

    9LorenPosted on: 1-19-2026

    The staff was friendly and helpful. The breakfast was extensive and always plentiful. The location was exceptional. Rooms were clean and comfortable. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again and recommend anyone to do so.

    My only complaint was the quality of the WiFi. But definitely not the end of the world.

    The location was great and very close to convenient parking. Our room was a little small, but the breakfast was delicious.

    8Angela M.Posted on: 1-19-2026

    Great location. Quiet room. Lavish breakfast included in price. Not cheap, but it's a tourist town, so expected.

    The bathroom didn't have a window and could use some kind of perfume or air-freshener.

    10DonnaPosted on: 1-16-2026

    Location was excellent people were friendly and very helpful in scheduling local tours as well.

    Easily accessible on the location was great.

    10MICHELEPosted on: 1-5-2026

    We chose this hotel because it was within walking distance of the Christmas Markets and the fact that breakfast was included. It was a nice surprise that we were each given a travel voucher for the local transportation good for our whole stay.

    5KerryPosted on: 1-3-2026

    The included breakfast was a nice addition. The facilities were clean.

    There is no airflow in the room--no fans, AC or heat. The room is stagnant. You have to open the window to a noisy street to get any airflow. This made for a restless sleep each night. The shower will be scalding anytime someone in the building (not limited to your room) turns on any water source. The parking garage space is very limited and therefore we had to go to a different parking garage which was not convenient.

    Excellent location, you are basically downtown. Public transport right outside the door. Not hotel specific but Salzburg provides free public transport to every guest. Excellent breakfast. Staff was nice and helpful.

    10NickPosted on: 12-28-2025

    Close to the old town. Nice walk to every thing. Stores close by for anything you might need.

    Maybe more space in the room to hang clothes

    5OmerPosted on: 12-27-2025

    Generally the location is great

    I felt like the hotel is more of a hostel than anything else. The colors of the room were screaming, the breakfast was so noisy and crowded. The parking was 22 Euros!!!And the price was so expensive to what we received ..

    8sam j. s.Posted on: 12-27-2025

    Breakfast was really good, I love the free water dispenser and coffee maker in their lobby, the lobby looks really nice, great location, free public transport pass

    The water pressure in the shower was too low and they didn't fix it, the towels had hair on them

    9Abiel B.Posted on: 12-25-2025

    Great locationCoffee and tee available 24x7Delicious buffet breakfast with many options availableRequested last day early breakfast and a very nice box was prepared, including sandwiches, dessert, fruit and water.

    The bathroom needs better ventilation.

    7JuliePosted on: 12-24-2025

    Location. It was walking distance to everything we wanted to see. The breakfast was very good.

    Room was very warm. When we opened the window the noise from the street below made it difficult to sleep.

    9LiavPosted on: 12-24-2025

    The location was amazing.Extremely good and diverse breakfast.Decent size room and well equipped

    The mattresses of the beds are really soft and provide no support for the body.. The lights on the room are a bit low. If not for the mattresses, I would have govern this hotel a perfect rate.

    9ThatblokeintheshortsPosted on: 12-20-2025

    Location was excellent, beds were comfortable, staff very friendly and helpful.

    Breakfast food choices could been better, as not all of us what to stuff ourselves with meat, cheese and tough breads.

    10EdenPosted on: 12-19-2025

    Great location, about 15 minutes walk from the city center (Residenzplatz, Domplatz). Close to airport’s bus stop, and other buses that can take you to the city and even to Schloss Hellbrunn. The breakfast was good, and the free coffee/tea in the lobby were perfect for the cold days. There’s a supermarket right in front of the hotel and you can microwave pastries in the hotel’s lobby.

    No shampoo or conditioner in the shower so bring your own.

    9PatriciaPosted on: 12-17-2025

    Located across the street from the Altstadt, which made for a lovely, leisurely walk to eating, shopping and the Christmas markets. The breakfast, which was included in the price, was superb. The room was comfortable, clean, quiet, and a nice size with an outside balcony.

    8RobinPosted on: 12-17-2025

    The breakfast was excellent! The staff were friendly and professional. The room was large, clean, and well-appointed. Great location.

    Upon arrival, we were charged 34 euros extra for “city tax,” then gave us a “free” bus pass. Not exactly free, is it? I thought all taxes were included by Booking. Com. Also, the water temperature in the shower fluctuated hot to cold throughout all showers, actually hot enough to have to jump out of the water stream, followed immediately by cold water.
