We had a fabulous stay here and would absolutely return. The room was a great size, spotlessly clean, had lots of nice little thoughtful touches and the sauna was a great addition. The hotel on the whole is really lovely, the spa area is excellent, gym is good and everything felt so serene. The location is also really good, just a few minutes walk to the bus station which takes you direct to the airport and also a 15 minute or so walk in to the old town. It is a really special place and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend
All the staff were superb. The hotel is immaculate and well maintained. It's a great location being only a short walk from the train station and into the old town. Breakfast was amazing, really good, high quality ingredients cooked to perfection. The best scrambled eggs I've had in a hotel. They will cook any egg dish to order too. Highly reccommend this hotel and will return next time.
We booked this hotel at the last minute and were so pleased with its location, cleanliness, etc. the room was the biggest we had while in Europe and decorated so cute!
Met the hotelier, super friendly chap! The hotel is newly refurbished and clean. Fast check in and check out. Walkable to everything you need to see in old town. The gym is underrated and under-advertised! Would recommend!
The room and bed were very nice - clean and comfortable. The breakfast was fantastic and the staff were friendly. The hotel offers easy access to public transportation and is conveniently located within walking distance of various restaurants and attractions.
Friendliest, most helpful staff! Hotel is very charming & clean! Walkable to the old town and to transportation. Would stay here again when in Salzburg!
close to city tour bus, attraction walkable, and very close to main station . Lionas at the reception was very friendly who showed us around and helpful

Very nice hotel. The people working there are friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable and spacious and the split bathroom design was helpful with three people in the room. It was clean and quiet. It is centrally located - close to the train station but also close to the city center.
The hotel was a few minutes walk from Salzburg train station. It was also walking distance to Alstadt, the old town.
Hotel was very clean and breakfast was excellent.
Great location. Would stay there again!!
Honestly 10/10 stay! One of the most enjoyable and pleasant hotels I’ve ever had. Staff was friendly, room and amenities were great, and it was in an awesome location close to everything you would need to access while staying in Salzburg.
