Lovely hotel, super location, can’t wait to come back!
Pros:

Superb location. Probably the best view of any hotel in Salzburg. Short distance into town and they have a complimentary bike facility. The buffet breakfast in the palace is probably the best I’ve had in my years travelling, great selection and never felt too busy like other hotels that have higher occupancy. The bar and lounge area is comfortable and has a small snack menu with very attentive staff.

Cons:

I was told before booking that the TVs in the room were smart/wifi enabled, unfortunately the one in our room wasn’t. Which was disappointing because I couldn’t watch The Sound of Music during my stay :(

Incredible stay in an incredible place!
Pros:

Everything was incredible! The location was beautiful- loved the Sound of Music connection. The breakfast was great but the amazing part was eating in the palace! Loved every moment of our time there!

Cons:

Not a big deal, but we were supposed to have a fruit basket upon arrival, so slightly disappointed, yet an amazing stay!

Stay here if you're into being at a Sound of Music location or into a peaceful environment.
Pros:

The location is very peaceful, the palace is beautiful and I loved having breakfast on the balcony.

Cons:

Room:
1) There were feces marks on the toilet when we checked into the room. Ugh! I called reception and they sent someone to clean the toilet but this was really odd to us, that the toilet wouldn't have been clean.
2) we were upstairs in the pink bldg and it looks like the rooms on that level were prior servants' quarters. A bit like a prison with only one high window and no view.
Location: it's not a centrally located hotel so taxi's were required on multiple days.

güzel bir deneyim idi.
Pros:

Kahvaltı çok iyiydi, ortam ve atmosfer çok iyidi. harika bir otel, merkeze yakın aracımızla 10 dk sonra merkeze gidebildik ve merkezde otopark olduğu için park sorunu yaşamadık. odalar güze ve temiz, boyut olarak çok geniş değil penceremiz normalden biraz küçük idi, ancak normal rahat bir oda idi, klima ve temizliği havalandırması iyi idi.

Cons:

sevmediğim bir şey olmadı

Fantastic historic place close to town.
Pros:

So much to love about this Hotel! The building/architecture is fantastic. The old “Schloss” is living history. Check out the Library. The breakfast was very nice. The team is very friendly and work hard. We can highly recommend “The Strasserwirt” for dinner. Fun team and great food @ reasonable prices. If you’re into walking, take the short stroll into old town. Sorry, it’s short but very steep ;-) Definitely worth it though. We just took a cab back to the hotel (EUR 14). All in we would definitely come back. It’s not cheap but you get what you pay for.

Cons:

There was nothing to complain about!
