2 nights in Salzburg
Pros:

The hotel is close to the city center, with good transport links. The rooms are comfortable and clean, with comfortable beds and efficient air conditioning (though a bit noisy). The bathroom is clean and spacious. A good breakfast and professional service. I recommend it!

Leicht enttäuscht... Schöne Hotelzimmer sind anders, alles in die Jahre gekommen.
Pros:

Bett war gut, Zimmer sauber. Die Lady am Empfang hat uns ein anderes Zimmer gegeben, als erst geplant (wollten ein Doppelbett und nicht 2 Einzelne).

Cons:

Hotel ist sehr abgewohnt und es gab Hygiene

Artikel nur auf Anfrage und dann leider auch nicht alles. Blöd wenn man ganz bewusst damit rechnet, weil man mit leichtem Gepäck reist.

Pros:

Sehr freundliches Personal und gute Lage!

Cons:

Leider war das Bett sehr ungemütlich. Die Wände sind so dünn, dass man die ganze Nacht über die anderen Gäste am Gang so wie in den Zimmern nebenan gehört hat - und zwar jeden Schritt.

Business Hotel in der Nähe des Bahnhofs.
Pros:

War für eine Nacht okay.

Cons:

Laden (Auto) ist nur in der Tiefgarage möglich, wo man dann (zumindest glaube ich, dass so) zweimal bezahlen müsste (Parkgebühr und den Ladestrom - Pauschal). Information dazu gab es leider keine vorab und auch der Abend-Rezeptionist war sich nicht sicher wie es genau funktioniert.

Outdated, poor quality and too hot
Pros:

I was expecting nice things from this hotel as the pictures looked good but don’t be fooled. The rooms are so outdated. Our room had black mould on the ceiling, water stains all over the ceilings, the ceiling paint was all coming off, chips all over the walls. Because it’s spring there’s no air con and the rooms are disgustingly hot even with the windows open. The tv in the room had hardly any channels That worked.

You can hear everything outside, above you and in the hallways. I wouldn’t say it’s city centre either. 15 minute walk to a train station and 40 minute walk to the fortress.

It definitely was not worth £90 per night. The rooms could do with a serious clean up, repaint and bathroom transformation.
