Sheraton Grand Salzburg
Staying at the Sheraton Grand Salzburg was an absolute delight from start to finish. The location is perfect—just a short 10-minute walk to the Old Town, and right behind the hotel lies the beautiful Mirabell Gardens, offering a peaceful retreat with stunning views. The front desk staff went above and beyond with their warm, attentive service—friendly, professional, and genuinely helpful. I even received a complimentary room upgrade and a small welcome gift, which made the experience feel extra special. The room itself was spacious, impeccably clean, and incredibly comfortable, with a cozy bed that made for a restful night’s sleep. The bathroom was spotless, well-equipped, and very modern. Everything about this stay felt luxurious yet welcoming. With such excellent value and top-tier hospitality, I’ll definitely be returning. A truly memorable stay in Salzburg.
Gasthof Hotel Doktorwirt
Staying at Gasthof Hotel Doktorwirt was a delightful experience from start to finish. The warm welcome from the staff set the tone for a comfortable and memorable visit. Our room was cozy and well-appointed, featuring a great shower and a private balcony overlooking lush gardens and a peaceful outdoor pool—though we were unlucky with the weather, as it rained heavily throughout our stay, so we couldn’t make full use of the balcony. That said, I’m sure it would be a real highlight on a sunny day. Breakfast was excellent—fresh, hearty, and perfectly balanced. The hotel’s location is ideal for getting into Salzburg by bus, just a short ride away. There’s a small bar on-site, though no dinner service in the evenings. However, there are several restaurants within walking distance, and we tried one nearby (just a 5-minute walk) that served authentic local cuisine—absolutely delicious, though I can’t recall the name now. One thing to note: many places in Salzburg, including this one, operate on cash-only basis, which was common during our trip through the region, including Berchtesgaden. Overall, this place offers a genuine, homely feel with excellent value. If we ever return to Salzburg, we’d definitely choose to stay here again.
Hapimag Resort Salzburg
Staying at Hapimag Resort Salzburg was an absolute delight, especially with kids in tow. The location couldn’t be better—just a short walk from the bustling old town, with plenty of cozy cafes and casual eateries nearby, so we didn’t even need to book breakfast. What really stood out was the complimentary room upgrade we received—spacious, clean, and well-equipped with a full kitchen, which made cooking dinner (yes, we grilled steaks right in the room!) a fun family activity. The staff were friendly and attentive, and the overall atmosphere struck the perfect balance between comfort and convenience. It’s rare to find such a great mix of location, value, and hospitality—this place feels like a true home away from home.
Hotel Schloss Leopoldskron
This hotel is pure magic from the moment you arrive. The view of the Alps framed by the historic castle architecture feels like stepping straight into a scene from *The Sound of Music*. Every corner is picture-perfect—my photos turned out better than I ever imagined. The breakfast was exceptional: fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented—worth waking up early for. It’s not just a stay; it’s an experience that lives in your memory long after you leave. If you’re visiting Salzburg, this is the place to make your trip unforgettable.
Bloberger Hof
We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Bloberger Hof! Perfect for a city trip — the location is fantastic, just a 200-meter walk to the bus stop, and buses to the city center run frequently. The hosts are incredibly warm and attentive; you instantly feel welcome from the moment you arrive. The property itself is beautifully designed and family-run, striking the perfect balance between cozy charm and modern comfort. Breakfast was outstanding — abundant, fresh, and clearly prepared with care and passion. The natural pool looks absolutely stunning, though we couldn’t use it due to the cooler weather — definitely planning to try it on our next visit! Overall, this place is truly exceptional and highly recommended. We’d love to come back again and again.
B&B Villa Verde
Staying at B&B Villa Verde was an absolute delight from start to finish. Nestled just outside Salzburg, the villa offers a perfect balance of tranquility and convenience—easy access to the city center by public transport, yet peaceful enough to truly unwind. The room was cozy, tastefully decorated, and incredibly comfortable, with a bed that made falling asleep effortless. What truly stood out, though, was the host—warm, welcoming, and genuinely helpful. They offered thoughtful recommendations for local spots and even went the extra mile to assist with directions and schedules. Breakfast was homemade, fresh, and delicious—such a lovely way to start the day. It’s rare to find a place that combines comfort, hospitality, and charm so seamlessly. I’d absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Salzburg.
Apt. Stone-Lodge
Before our arrival, we received multiple emails with detailed PDFs outlining all the amenities and services offered by the property—very thorough! However, upon arrival, we ran into parking issues. The apartment is located on a pedestrian-only street, and the nearby covered parking (€44 per day!) was fully booked, as were all the paid spots along the main road (max 180 minutes, with fees). We reached out to the host, who was incredibly helpful and responsive in finding a solution. Access to the property required a code, but due to a technical glitch, we didn’t receive it until calling the host right before check-in. As described on the platform, the building sits adjacent to the mountain—so no elevator, just a narrow, steep staircase with low ceilings. Entry wasn’t easy, especially if you’re carrying luggage. The studio was small but well-equipped: kitchenware, dishes, pots, kettle, coffee machine (with complimentary pods, tea bags, and two Mozart chocolates), towels, iron and ironing board, fridge, dish soap, even salt and oil. Bathroom was tiny but clean. The window faced the quiet private street—great for peace and privacy. It’s only a 10-minute walk to the historic center, which is convenient. Overall, the charm of being tucked into the mountainside is undeniable. But honestly, the access challenges, lack of storage space, no bedside tables or shelves near the bed, and the extremely compact bathroom make it hard to justify the price point. Some things are unavoidable given the age and location—but if the value-for-money balance were better, this would be a much stronger recommendation.
Motel One Salzburg-Mirabell
The location is perfect—just a short walk from the train station, and everything you need is within easy reach. The hotel is well-equipped and offers a comfortable stay with great convenience. I’d definitely recommend it for travelers looking for a hassle-free experience in Salzburg.
Motel One Salzburg-Süd
Staying at Motel One Salzburg-Süd was a fantastic experience. The location is incredibly convenient—just a short walk from the FlixBus station, making transfers effortless and stress-free. I especially appreciated having a supermarket right on the ground floor; it was so handy for grabbing snacks, drinks, or essentials without having to go far. The room was clean, modern, and comfortable, with a cozy bed that made for a restful night’s sleep. What stood out most was the great value—excellent quality for the price. If you're visiting Salzburg and want a reliable, well-located place to stay, this motel is definitely worth considering. I’d happily return and recommend it to fellow travelers.
Hotel Modus
Staying at Hotel Modus was an absolute highlight during my visit to Salzburg. Just a 5-minute walk from the historic city center, it’s incredibly convenient for exploring the area on foot. The staff were exceptionally friendly and knowledgeable—always ready to help with recommendations or local tips. The on-site parking is a game-changer: located right next to the hotel, it’s perfect for travelers driving in, especially since street parking in Salzburg can be nearly impossible. At €10 per day (excluding taxes), it’s surprisingly affordable considering the hassle of finding a spot elsewhere. The room is compact but well-designed, offering all the essentials for a comfortable 2-3 night stay. It was spotless, and I appreciated the small lounge area with a variety of snacks and coffee options—ideal for a morning pick-me-up or evening relax. Overall, the experience was excellent, and I’d highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Salzburg.
Stadtalm Naturfreundehaus
Absolutely stunning location, perched above the city with panoramic views that take your breath away! The hike up from downtown on hot days is definitely not for the faint-hearted—bring plenty of water and wear light clothing. But every step is worth it once you reach this peaceful mountain retreat. The food here is excellent—fresh, flavorful, and served at very reasonable prices. The staff are warm and welcoming, making you feel right at home. One small tip: don’t forget to bring your own towel for the shower—there’s no towel service provided. Still, the experience is unforgettable, especially when you’re surrounded by nature and peace.
Haus Kernstock
The hostess, a truly lovely lady, made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. She even shared her homemade jam for breakfast—rich in flavor and so fresh, it was a highlight of our stay. The room was spacious, spotlessly clean, and warmly cozy, with a perfect blend of comfort and charm. While it's a bit outside the city center, the view from the windows is absolutely breathtaking—mountains and forest stretching into the distance. It’s definitely worth the short drive. Plus, free parking was a big plus for us as we traveled by car. This place feels like a hidden gem, and we’d happily return without hesitation.
