Disappointed by the level of service received
Pros:

Location is superb

Cons:

Our experience at the bar was somewhat mixed. The bartender displayed a rather dismissive demeanor making an unsolicited comment regarding my beverage choice. His attitude improved noticeably upon realizing we were hotel guests.
On the departure morning we visited the renowned Cafe Sacher to try the famous Sacher cake with espresso. Despite the cafe being almost empty we waited 15 minutes and decided to leave as we had a scheduled check-out.
It is our opinion that the service needs to improve to align with customer service standards we expect from this beautiful hotel.

מלון מיוחד חוויה בלתי נשכחת!
Pros:

המלון פשוט יפהפה - מעוצב בטוב טעם. ארוחת הבוקר ממש מ ד ה י מ ה! שווה לרכוש אותה במחיר כלול כי אם נרכשת בנפרד היא מאוד מאוד יקרה. המיקום מדהים במרכז על גדות הנהר ונמצא ממש בנקודת האמצע בין כל האטרקציות. הצוות נפלא וחם.

Cons:

אהבנו הכל!!

The most amazing hotel!!! Beautiful, elegant, and traditional, with the friendliest staff (and in the perfect location!)
Pros:

We have just returned from an unforgettable stay at this hotel. What really stood out first and foremost was the service - every single member of staff was so friendly, kind, and helpful - from reception, to the doormen, to concierge, to the cleaners, to the bar / restaurant staff… everyone went out of their way to help us and to put a smile on our faces. We really felt welcomed and part of the Sacher family! We did not want to leave!!

The hotel itself is perfectly situated, within walking distance to everything you could need in the centre of Salzburg. It is also an incredibly beautiful building - the decor, the furniture, the facilities. It was impressive, clean and modern, but with a traditional / historical feel. Our room was so elegant and spacious; with a big bathroom, a walk in wardrobe, and a hallway leading to the stunning bedroom which overlooked the beautiful streets of Salzburg.

A highlight for us was the spa (sauna, steam room and relaxation area) - just what we needed after a day of exploring!

Thank you so much for a lovely birthday weekend away - we will DEFINITELY be returning !!!

Absolutely fantastic!
Pros:

Absolutely fantastic! From the guest services that greeted us upon arriving with the car, to the friendly receptionists, to the exceptional concierge team, to the beautiful spotless room, to the great breakfast with amazing staff and last but not least, the room service team! We felt completely pampered and taken care of from the whole hotel. I could not think of anything that can be improved. Thank you for the great stay! See you soon again.

Exceptional stay in Salzburg's best hotel.
Pros:

Magnificent 5 star hotel in an outstanding location. Staff and service were exceptional and attentive throughout the stay. Room was beautifully finished and comfortable, ours had a balcony and view over the river to the old town and castle. The bar is absolutely top tier with an interesting range of cocktails. We had breakfast in the Sacher Cafe which was excellent, and dinner on our first night in the Sacher Grill - which was even better. I would happily stay again, and look forward to a time when I can return.

Cons:

There was nothing I would ask for, or did not like. A great experience all around.
