Where to stay in Salzburg

The room is nice and cozy, we can see new year fireworks from the window. Bed is clean and the room is tidy, if hotel can provide hot water will be great.

The staff member who handled check-in today was kind, polite, and attentive. She explained everything clearly and arranged a new room for me, is really better than previous 3nights I stayed.

Very nice hotel with large comfortable room, comfortable bed and clean bathroom. Staff were super helpful when I accidentally left my laptop in my room when checking out. Also, much appreciated the gluten free bread for breakfast that was delicious and very safe (came in its own vacuum bag and I was given a pair of scissors so I could open the bag myself) — highly recommend for travellers with celiac

Convenient location Rooms are nice and big and well designed Quite good quality for this price

Easy to find and nice restaurant nearby . Room is clean and big also

The breakfast is simple but nice. You can keep your luggage here for free before you check in and after you check out. The only thing bad about here is that it is kind of far away from all the tourist attractions. Going to the old town takes at least 15-20 minutes walk.

Very good location for those who drives. There’s paid carpark in the hotel. Not near the central train station but near to the centre and old town area which cannot be driven in.

Good location. Near to a lot of attraction and bus station. Nice breakfast:

Walkable location to both station and old town. Luggage lockers and nice seating area with free tea & coffee.

Nice And cosy hotel at the edge of Salzburg old town. Location is great and it is easy to walk everywhere from there. Rooms are small but clean and with nice wood floors. Beds are very comfortable. Breakfast is nothing spectacular but absolutely ok. Great value for money.

The location is great, only a short walk to the city centre. The rooms are fairly clean and the breakfast is nice.

Extremely close to the bus station, with a supermarket and shopping street right outside, which is super convenient. The drink bar was also great. The only downside was that the triple room had a bit of a renovation smell.

Really enjoyed my stay at this hotel. The service was top-notch, with very attentive and welcoming staff. The room was spacious, clean, and very comfortable. The location is a huge plus—convenient and within walking distance and next to salzburg train station easy to go to major attractions. Would definitely stay here again

The hotel is convenient to sightseeing points and restaurant as well as shopping mall Forum 1. In addition, the room spacious is more comfortable and good environment. It has a good view to city centre at high floor level. The receptionist had forgotten to give us the Salzburg mobility tickets. It was too little to provide coffee and tea bags as we stayed for two days. It was not clearly stated free...

Pros: 1. The front desk staff provided excellent service, patiently answering questions and giving specific directions as requested by guests. 2. Convenient transportation – there are bus stops for multiple routes right next to the hotel (Figure 1), and guests can ride for free with a voucher provided by the hotel (Figure 2). Cons: 1. There were at least two spots in the room where multiple hairs...

Everything is good but no microwave :( Close location to the central station

Very cozy, with stunning views of the snowy mountains from the high-floor windows. It's super convenient – just cross the road to reach the main train station and bus terminal. The tap water comes directly from the Alps and is safe to drink. The only downside is that no toiletries are provided, just hand soap, no shampoo or shower gel.

Everything is good. The hotel is located right next to the train station and bus station, best for traveler on either long or short journey. Good restaurants are nearby, McDonald at next door runs till 2am so no one could be starve. Vending machine is around and served 24 hours. For the hotel room, pillow is soft and nice, blanket are warm, good enough space for showcases. Bathroom is simple but...

The location was convenient for getting around. It's difficult to push a large suitcase from the central station, so I think it's better to take the bus. The receptionist was wearing what appears to be traditional clothing and was very cute. She greeted me with a smile. Thank you very much.

This hotel really rocks!! perfect location to walk into the all major tourist spots and breakfast was best ever I had in Austria and Germany, especially lady who was serving us for coffee was really kind and great in terms of taking care of customers! only disadvantage was the absence of inhouse parking but they provided the discount ticket so we paid only 26 euro per day (40 euro per day at Mirabel...

Excellent, especially the location; the only downside is the price.

Breakfast is delicious, the staff is friendly, Mirabell Garden is just a minute away, and there are trams and buses that stop in front of the accommodation, so it's great.

All attractions in Salzburg are within walking distance. The facilities are old. The breakfast is good.

Very good location. Would've been nice to have a fitness studio.

Our stay at Schloss Leopoldskron was truly unforgettable. The setting is breathtaking, the history is fascinating, and the views over the lake are simply beautiful. Staying in a place with so much character and heritage made the experience feel very special. A heartfelt thank you to the wonderful staff for arranging an extra bed for our kids. Your kindness and warm hospitality made our family feel...

We spent 3 nights at the Scloss Leopoldskron. We booked in advance and were lucky to have a room in the Palace. From the moment we arrived, we were treated wonderfully by all the staff. The views of the lake, the flowers blooming in the gardens, the outdoor seating, and the charm of the Schloss are top notch. We were able to walk to nearby restaurants, take a stroll around the lake and explore...

The house itself and the grounds are simply perfect. A highland of our trip. I booked a breakfast here for my daughter's 21st. We were so lucky to have seats on the terrace with a view of the mountains. The breakfast was expensive and you pay for.the.view. Worth it though. The staff were really lovely and nothing was too much effort but the food choice was minimal. Heard other guests say the same....

The overall hotel is full of character. The breakfast in the palace is quite an unique experience. That room is clean. I believe it doesn’t have any AC. But there are 2 fans which work very well for me. Also walkable to Hohen palace. Great location. Highly recommend for vacation or hiking.

Only a suite was available, so I booked it. It was a reasonable price, so I only stayed for one night. The room was quaint, with old furnishings and a great view of the garden. It was a shame that the hotel didn't have a restaurant where you could have dinner.

The room was quite far from the reception area. I wonder if it was intentional for Chinese people. When you check in, be sure to ask the front desk not to give you the farthest room!!! The room had no air conditioning and was very stuffy. There was only one air conditioner in the attic, but the shower had decent water pressure. The surroundings felt unprotected, and the lake was rather dirty. It wasn...

The staff were exceptionally friendly, and the room was spacious. However, the hotel is quite far from the city center and the main train station, with limited transportation options nearby. That said, the hotel provides free public transportation tickets, which helps offset the inconvenience.

The place was nice and comfortable. Great location, bus is right outside. The lady at the reception was super nice and kind.

A very clean and nice equipped hotel. The staff is super friendly and helpful. Strongly recommended for those who travel to Salzburg.

Great location and decent room. Room is spacious for European standard. car parking is limited though.

Free parking is available, and the staff provided excellent service, even giving us two free city transit cards.

Everything was good except the location since it’s a bit far away from city centre. But there was a big supermarket just next the hotel.

Great service and helpful staff. We had a very spacious and quiet room, it has everything we need. The hotel is like old-luxury style located right at the center of the Salzburg old town. It’s very convenient from the airport, and to explore the old town. We really enjoyed the stay.

In the old city, right on the promenade, the rooms in the building next to the hotel are uncomfortable or bad.

The location is very convenient, with two entrances, one near the river for easy access to the bus stop, and the other leading to the main street. The room provides individually packaged toiletries, which is a nice touch!

This hotel stay was extremely unsatisfactory. We booked a superior room, but were given a room on the top floor with a pointed roof, resembling a loft. This was completely unacceptable. The worst part was that, despite showing us a standard superior room on the third floor, a supervisor suddenly appeared and insisted that all the superior rooms on the third and fourth floors were fully booked, and...

We complain about the wifi and was told we are the only customer compliant about it, all 4 rooms of us are from 108 till 112 facing the same problem, by proving it and only given answer not able to do anything but can give us free drinks when we check out , I rejected the offer. Next day while collecting our vehicle and the bell boy said one room are entitled for a bag, YOU MUST GIVE bell boy Euro...

Old house, many stairs, inconvenient to move luggage, breakfast is OK. Good location for sightseeing

Every single aspect was truly an exceptional five star experience. Dinner at the Glass Garden restaurant is NOT to be missed.

Exceptional service all the way around. The entire staff will bend over backwards to help in any way they can.

Absolutely stunning property with amazing views. The best and most catering staff I have ever experienced at a hotel. Easily joined the top 3 best hotels either my wife or I have ever experienced. Wish we had more time!

Amazing stay Spent two nights here while visiting Salzburg: this was one of the very best experiences we’ve had. From check in through the end of our stay, the service was impeccable. Room was amazing - we were second from the top with a 270 degree view of the city. We had a multi-course meal at The Glass Garden and an informal dinner the next night in their restaurant/bar: excellent wine and drink...

Affordable luxury Wanted a special treat along our journey. This place is unbelievably lovely.

Not a question: book it Why would not choose to stay at the castle on a hill with stunning views? The property grounds are serene, the staff friendly, personable and accommodating, and the walk to town is charming. Also, book a day just for the spa/pool.

The hotel has an excellent location, making it very convenient for shopping and close to attractions. Although we didn't have time to fully enjoy the hotel's facilities due to a busy schedule, it's a high-quality hotel I would recommend to friends.

Rooms were great the bed was so comfortable! First full nights sleep since I started traveling! Amenities … free bus passes… we went to St Gilgen and St Wolfgang for free! Excellent! Oh and location is perfect. Could be better!

Great experience from the moment i checked in. Staff were very welcoming and explained the attractions surrounding the hotel. The location of this hotel is excellent as it is literally walking distance to key tourist spots. Many restaurants nearby and beautiful sceneries all around. The room arranged for us (i believe it was upgraded) is spacious, clean, comfortable and amenties are comprehensive....

From the moment we arrived at the hotel the service was top notch. Warm hand towels and prosecco were offered. Check in was easy. Room was spacious and comfortable.

Excellent location opposite the commercial district

We chose Hotel Stein because of the location and beautiful view from the hotel room. It has a nice rooftop bar and restaurant Hotel staff are very friendly and helpful. We wanted to visit Designer Premium Outlet and they guided us on map, directions to board the bus. One of the front desk lady even offered to give us a slip of paper to exchange for discount vouchers at the premium outlet. Rooms were...

This hotel is highly recommended! Those who drive should definitely not miss it, but those without a car shouldn't even consider it. It's located in the hills behind Salzburg, and in the evening, you can overlook the entire city. It's absolutely stunning. The hotel has its own Michelin-starred restaurant, which was closed on Sunday when we visited, but the breakfast was excellent. It's truly one of...

This mountaintop hotel has relatively small rooms, but the views and atmosphere are fantastic. It's perfect for self-drive travelers and is popular with foreigners. The cabins have a modern feel, a private vegetable garden, and a view overlooking Salzburg. The rooms are small, but the bathrooms are adequate. The main dinner was excellent and highly recommended.

The hotel is located halfway up the mountain, with great views. The rooms are not big, and it is an old hotel with unique features, suitable for short-term stays.

Although the room is a bit old, it is warm and comfortable. Very quiet. I slept very well at night.

Driving out of busy Salzburg up into the hills above to the Gersberg Alm we were greeted by a beautiful chalet with flowers, trees, & pastures. They have a full restaurant so we had a light lunch. They view down to Salzburg was so nice that we just stayed up in the hills rather than walk the city. Its only a short 10 minute drive to the city and you will do best with your own car. There is plenty...

I like this hotel very much, it is super beautiful🤩, It is suitable to stay here and slowly feel the wind, the flowers and plants, and the quiet life. There are few Chinese people here, leaving beautiful memories

Very clean and nice location. The staff were friendly and helpful.

The location near Salzburg HBF was the best plus and the service was good! The team got us free transport tickets for one day without us asking and was able to bring us an electric kettle on our request! We have everything we needed for the room, bed, shower and toilet facilities are in very good condition! No problem during our one night stay at all!

The location is VERY convenient being right next to the train station so u can hv access to all the city transport. Staff are nice. However, the kitchen is crowded. It’s weird that the bed doesn’t come with socket and a lamp which is pretty inconvenient for those who are checking in late and trying not to wake the whole room with the light.

The hostel is closed to the train station and shopping mall. Our two beds room was upgraded to four bed room. The spacious was more comfortable and left our suitcase. It was taken a long time for check in and registration by QR code. The guest kitchen was too small to share the crowded customers at the peal time. It is important not to keep your luggage when you had checked out except by payment lockers

Good place for the price. Close to the train station, but an easy walk to the main tourist area. I liked that you can choose when they come clean … but it wasn’t the best clean 🙈 WiFi was also great until the last day when there was no WiFi at all.

This hotel is super convenient for the train station. They even give you a free public transport QR code after check-in. It's clean, hygienic, and I'd definitely recommend it, especially if you're traveling solo!

Great service, friendly staff and very clean rooms. You get what you are paying for!

The hotel's facilities are actually quite good, but unfortunately, the front desk staff were very discriminatory towards Asians. My daughter coughed softly a few times, and the staff member immediately recoiled a significant distance. Even during check-in, she kept her distance while processing our registration. The worst part was she even told other staff not to get too close to us. Honestly, my daughter...

Lovely hotel within easy walking distance of the Hauptbahnhof. Also reasonable distance to many of the city's attractions but the new (in 2025) Public Transport Guest Mobility Ticket is great as it less than 100m from hotel to a bus stop to travel into the city for free. The bed was very comfortable and the air conditioning worked very well so we both slept very well.

The hotel staff is friendly and provides free city transportation passes for the dates of stay. The breakfast is rich. The rooms and shower rooms are slightly small, but they are newly decorated and fully equipped.

I love this hotel a lot. it’s a small family owned one but very neat and tidy, breakfast tastes so good and the staff are all very nice. it’s around just 5 minutes walk to central train station which makes it so much easier for us after long whole day trips. It definitely worth staying!

The rooms were comfortable. If you eat at the restaurant the food is excellent. It was well maintained and clean. The evening we were not in the restaurant, Pizza was within walking distance, and that was convenient.

We pretty much loved everything about this place from the moment we arrived and they stored our luggage while they finished getting the room ready. We had a ‘two room’ room which was small but neat/nice. Location perfect - plenty of options to eat nearby. Teen says best carbonara of her life near here. Enjoyed the pool - tiny - but nice to float after a day of walking. The bells in the morning were...

Great location, walking distance to the beautiful cobbled streets. Very friendly staff, decent size room, well worth a visit

What an amazing hotel with supportive and helpful staff. So many special efforts to spoil guests and made our time restful. Really enjoyed the location with so much available in walking distance.

The rooms were clean and comfortable and the location was great. Check in and check out was so easy and convenient.

Very elegant hotel, nice lobby and comfy sitting area and friendly staff. We arrived early and left our luggage in the hotel and returned late afternoon to check in, our luggages were already placed in our room. The room was spacious with sofa and table and desk. There was water kettle for boiling water and tea bags provided. The bed was slightly too soft for us. In the evening, we enquired about...

It’s a very nice hotel ideally located to everything. The breakfast was fantastic. The staff very helpful.

We select Salzburg for new year and Arthotel was a great choice. Location was excellent but also the hotel rooms where great. Very clean, spacious and modern.

The breakfast menu was good. The room was spacious & quite. There are no baggage service at this hotel, guests have to take their own luggage to the room, it is not easy as there are stairs on the way, specially for my because my husband blind & I carried two suitcases alone.

We were 12 days in Europe and stayed in 4 different hotels including the W in Budapest, which was gorgeous. This was by far my favorite! I believe they gave us an upgrade to the fourth floor suite facing the beautiful street below. The front desk staff were fantastic, and the hotel was unique, cozy, and beautiful.

We loved the vibe. Excellent service! Unique room. Delightful breakfast

Amazing location. Well taken care of hotel right in the heart of everything. The restaurant was fabulous including the breakfast.

We traveled Europe for 7 weeks and this was, by far, the best hotel with the best and classiest staff we experienced! I wish I could remember everyone's names, because I want to thank each and everyone of them! Thank you!!!

Highly recommend!! Staff was very friendly and helpful. The gentleman at the desk gave us a tour of the hotel. He had a nice smile and was very welcoming! Loved that breakfast was included, and the lady in the kitchen was very efficient and nice. Enjoyed the coffee/tea bar, free to guests and the honesty bar. Clean room, simple yet cozy. Definitely plan on going back!

The rooms may be smaller than expected, but they offer the best breakfast. I highly recommend this place for solo travelers. The location is also great.

Staff polite, friendly, and helpful, room quiet, breakfast good. I'd be happy to come back.

My stay was quite good. The guy at the reception is extremely nice and did everything to make sure that my stay will be perfect.

A small hotel in an old house along the street. Go straight to the left of the train station. Turn left when you see the bridge hole. Turn left and go straight for less than 100 minutes. You will see the small door of the hotel. Go up the steps. The front desk lady is very enthusiastic. After checking in, she will introduce you to the functional area layout of the hotel. There are not many varieties...

I've heard a lot about the bad reputation of European hotels being cheap, but unfortunately, it happened to me too. I think it was 390,000 won for 3 people at a 4-star hotel for 1 night. * Carrying heavy bags up to the front desk * No air conditioning * No refrigerator * No amenities * No tissues * No coffee or tea * No coffee pot * Breakfast only had bread, cheese, juice, coffee, and eggs...

This is such a cool hotel… right on the mall with gorgeous shops surrounding. Restaurant and bar located downstairs. We stayed on a Friday night and it was so loud… people screaming until 3 am from the bar… then street cleaners on the street. Too bad because the hotel itself is really exceptional and the family apartment was perfect.

Nice room but a bit small. Room was too hot. Had to leave window open all night (it was December). Had an ice machine but no buckets for the rooms. Had to borrow one from the restaurant but they didn't seem happy to loan it.

Staff were very friendly, rooms were clean and hotel is at an amazing location in Salzburg!

Great location, near the old town! The rooms were very spacious and immaculate! Would stay here again and would highly recommend it to anyone traveling to Salzburg!

Very friendly and helpful staff. Focus was alway on my family having a good experience

Great location! Very nice breakfast and restaurant had a good menu. Desk was helpful for directions to laundromat and also called for taxi when we were leaving.

Vier Jahreszeiten in Salzburg is a prime example of what a boutique hotel should be like : tastefully designed & decorated, personal & friendly staff, attention to detail and good value for money. Location is not exactly in the Old Town, but a 15 min walk will get you there. The super helpful young man at reception got us a room although we arrived well before check-in time. Our room was generous in...

We stayed at the Vier Jahreszeiten during our weekend trip to Salzburg. The staff was super friendly, our room was spacious, very clean and beautifully decorated. The location of the hotel is perfect and if you have a car, the hotel provides you with a parking ticket so you can park at a discount (26€/day) in the Mirabell Congress Centre Garage, which is 1min away. We had breakfast at the hotel one...

We loved our stay at the Vier Jahreszeiten Hotel! It is the perfect location with only an 8 minute walk to the main station and 10 minute walk over the river to the old town of Salzburg. The communication with the hotel in the planning process was professional, timely, and very helpful. Their excellent customer service continued to impress us during our stay as the staff suggested local places to eat...

Very charming, good breakfast, clean, everything worked. Staff were helpful and friendly booking events and excursions. Nice quiet area...10 minute walk from rear entrance of train station...use a map! The rear entrance still has escalators and an elevator. About a 7 minute walk to Mirabell palace where bus tours leave from...about 15 minute walk to old town. I liked the location. Central to all....

This was my first trip to Salzburg and had only two days. The hotel has a great location only 10 minutes away from train station, easy to find and 5 minutes walk from Mirabell gardens, the Old town is also within 15 minutes walk The room and bathroom are clean and spacious and the hotel staff are very helpful and friendly. At the reception you can get advice for tours, what to see where to eat. Loved...

The hotel is with very good location - 10min walk to the main train station, 10 min walk to the Mirabell garden and 15min walk to the hart of the old town. The staff is very polite and helpful, always ready to help. Everywhere in the hotel is more than excellent cleanliness. The rooms are very comfortable with classic furniture and extremely comfortable bed. The bathroom is again incredible clean....

Wonderful staff all day along with spacious rooms and all available amenities. Less than 10 minutes from the city center via the tram and the tram station is just in front of the hotel.

Room was clean but the whole building is a bit old and could do with renovations. Located about 20 min walk to old town so not too bad

We needed to book a hotel room for 2 weeks on a short notice in October, and this hotel had availability. The room was very spacious, clean and had plenty storage for 2 people with suitcases. I also liked the bathroom, which had shower and tub - rarely seen any more. I picked this hotel for to the location right by the bus stop for getting to downtown (3 stops later). The staff was incredibly friendly...

The front reception staff were wonderful check in and out was a breeze. Very welcoming. The room was quite comfortable and we had a great view of the fortress. Stayed in room 306. The room was very clean and the bed was comfortable.

The hotel is located in the inner city of Salzburg, but in a less frequented area. Average rooms. Prices are high, but unfortunately the whole of Salzburg is very expensive in terms of accommodation. The breakfast is very generous, with an excellent selection and friendly staff. Upon arrival, we found out that we could park for free in the hotel courtyard at the back. This was very nice. As a bonus...

Walking distance to Altstadt and Leopold Lake. Nice size room. Windows able to open, albeit on the roadside. Parking (limited) but worked for us. Asked for basic cutlery: received quickly and more items than we asked for. Staff interactions great.

The room was spotless. The hosts were friendly.

I visited this hotel in October 2025 and was impressed by its recent renovation, which gives it a fresh and modern look, especially in the reception and breakfast area. I also noticed they’ve just added air conditioning to the rooms – a thoughtful improvement. The service is exceptional, and you can genuinely feel how much the team care about their guests. Their warm hospitality made me feel truly...

The staff was charming, friendly and super helpful. The breakfast was wonderful.

We had the most wonderful experience at Hotel Rosenvilla, starting from the moment we checked in. It was a quaint hotel, with more amenities and services to make your stay enjoyable than most hotels. They’ve really thought of everything! Wine and snacks self service cart, a high quality breakfast, and free transportation passes for guests. Parking was easy, most rooms have balcony’s with views of the...

Beautiful hotel, excellent stuff, rooms comfortable and nice. Breakfast and room service excellent. Not to long from the centre of Salzburg. Highly recommend!

Amazing hotel with well appointed rooms, very friendly staff and free parking. Breakfast is very good with eggs to order also available. Hotel staff are very attentive and always try to go above and beyond to help guests. I returned around 9 one night and went to get a quick cup of cappuccino. The lady had just cleaned the machine and was turning it off for the night but she quickly made me one despite...

The location is far from the city center, but there are several bus stops outside, and the Flixbus South station is nearby. The room is large, apartment-like, with a kitchen and refrigerator, but no washing machine.

The room was new, clean, and spacious. The only downside was that it smelled quite strong, probably because it was recently renovated. However, across from the hotel, there's a large expanse of grass, forest, and distant mountains. It was a lovely environment, and I loved it. I saw many locals cycling and jogging there.

Very good place with great connectivity. The person at the reception was very helpful.

The hotel is in a good location, close to the cross-border bus station, about a 10-minute walk away. The room was clean, well-lit, the bathroom was spacious, and the shower was powerful enough. The only drawback was that there was no phone in the room.

A bit far from the center, a bit old style, but everything went well, love staying in this place!

I just posted a review and was very satisfied. The main reason was the excellent location, which was exactly where we wanted. We were also satisfied with the room we chose, so we renewed our reservation. I will come again if I have the chance in the future.
