A Beautiful Stay in Salzburg
Pros:

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful hotel. It had lovely character to it and the room was super comfy. We appreciated the air conditioning. The staff were super lovely, Helene served us on most instances and was kind and attentive. We also loved the breakfast buffet, which had a wide variety of choices and was set up beautifully. The location was also great with a bus stop very close by and a short 8 min walk to the main train station.

Cons:

Very hard to fault this hotel. The only thing we had minimal trouble with was the wifi occasionally dropping in and out. Apart from that, everything was exceptional!

Hotel in Bahnhofsnähe mit wenig Luxus und Komfort
Pros:

Das Hotel liegt nahe beim Hauptbahnhof und ist daher gut zu erreichen. Frühstücksbuffet ist reichlich und preislich OK. Der Frühstücksraum selbst ist wenig einladend. Auf den Kaffee müssen wir eine Weile warten, weil sich minutenlang niemand blicken läßt und erst die Nachfrage an der Rezeption zum Auftauchen von Personal führt.

Cons:

Das Hotel ist in die Jahre gekommen und eher am unteren Ende eines 4 Stern Betriebes anzusiedeln. Das Zimmer (offensichtlich ein früheres Raucherzimmer) war muffig und roch schlecht. Das Zimmer war außerdem recht klein und auf ebener Erde zur Straße gelegen. Besonders verärgert hat mich das Check-in. Obwohl ich nach Aufforderung durch das Hotel via Booking das Online Formular in mühsamer Arbeit am Mobiltelefon ausgefüllt hatte, war bei unserer Ankunft die Information nicht mehr aufzutreiben und wir mussten die gesamten Daten nocheinmal ausfüllen. Insgesamt erschien uns die Kompetenz der Rezeptionistin mangelhaft und eines Viersternehotels nicht würdig.

家族経営のくつろげる宿でした
Pros:

スタッフの皆さんが大変親切で、夜遅くホテルに戻った際も暖かく迎えてくれた。
ロケーションは中央駅近くで旧市街からは離れているが、バスで旧市街まで直接アクセスできた。

Perfect salzburg base
Pros:

Staff so warm and welcoming, with daily room cleaning and wonderful hospitality. The homemade apple strudel was the best we had in Austria! 🍎❤️ The complimentary Salzburg Mobility Ticket was a great plus, making sightseeing around Salzburg and nearby towns like Mondsee and Bad Ischl so convenient.

Cons:

None

Frühstück top, Badezimmer flop
Pros:

Tolles Frühstück

Cons:

Sehr kleines Badezimmer. Platz zwischen Wand und Toilette ca. 20 cm, Platz zwischen Duschwand und Toilette 1 cm! Warum setzt man die Toilette nicht mittig?
Fön war vom Spiegel zu weit weg an der Wand installiert und die Schnur war zu kurz.
Kein Mineralwasser auf dem Zimmer.
