Trevligt. Vackert läge. Det var en bit att gå ner till centrum men fanns en hiss att åka upp med.

Pros:

Eine traumhafte Lage, sehr ruhig. Das Bad war ganz neu. Ausgezeichnetes Frühstück in einem schönen Raum. Großes Lob für den Herrn an der Rezeption! Seine Freundlichkeit, seine Hilfsbereitschaft, seine Zeit für ein nettes Gespräch waren wohltuend. Ich komme bestimmt zurück.

Wunderbar- wir kommen wieder!
Pros:

Die Lage ist perfekt, vollkommen ruhig und friedlich. Der Fußweg zum Mönchsbergaufzug ist sehr gut machbar und unten ist man direkt in der Altstadt.
Die Zimmer sind sehr einladend ausgestattet, alles, was man braucht, ist vorhanden und vor allem ist alles absolut sauber. Wir hatten Blick in den wunderbaren Garten- wirklich herrlich!
Beim Frühstück ist alles und mehr im großzügigen und liebevoll gerichteten Angebot. Die Freundlichkeit und Liebenswürdigkeit der Mitarbeitenden- sowohl der Reinigungskräfte als auch im Frühstückssaal- ist hervorragend- wir haben uns bestens aufgehoben gefühlt.

Cons:

Am Nachttisch wäre eine Doppelsteckdose sinnvoll, damit neben der Nachttischlampe (in Betrieb) auch ein Handy/ Wecker geladen werden könnte.

Super Frühstück, herrlich Aussicht und Ruhe

Cons:

Zimmer sind nur halbherzig renoviert, Türen im Zimmer sind alt geblieben und echtes Holz würde besser zum Charme des Hauses passen

Pros:

Beste Lage in Salzburg am Mönchsberg

Cons:

Zimmer und Frühstück im Charme einer ehemaligen Mönchunterkunft. Parkmöglichkeit zu finden kann schwierig sein. Zum Abendessen muss man mit dem Auto fahren oder einen längeren Weg zu Fuss in Kauf nehmen.

Relaxing long weekend with my daughter in beautiful Salzburg
Pros:

Location was a bit tricky to find by bus and on foot from the airport. Also we weren't told that the lift up to the property we needed to take every day was an extra cost for us. Once there, we liked the stunning forest setting of the location and the peaceful ambiance of the monastery. We loved that from there we could enjoy spectacular views of both the mountains and the town. Our rooms were spacious, modern and very clean. The staff were all very helpful, approachable and friendly. Breakfast was very nice: a large selection of foods to choose from. Noise was kept to a minimum, so ideal setting for a mindful and relaxing holiday! Overall we really loved staying at the property and would recommend it to friends and family.

Cons:

Nothing really, apart from the the small matter of the lift costs and the fact that initially it was difficult to locate the entrance into the monastery and that it was locked and could only be opened by a room card key, which we didn't have yet. There seemed to be no way to get in apart from possibly phoning reception, maybe a buzzer or speakaphone would be easier. We were lucky, a couple were leaving when we arrived and let us in.

Excellent emplacement pour laisser la voiture et visiter la ville de Salzburg en prenant l'ascenseur
Pros:

Très bon emplacement pour visiter Salzburg en venant en voiture. En quelques minutes à pied dans la forêt du Mönchsberg, on atteint l'ascenseur qui nous dépose au centre de la ville. L'hôtellerie est un endroit exceptionnel, très calme et pourtant si proche de la ville.

Il sogno di svegliarsi in un castelletto
Pros:

Andare a visitare dei castelli soggiornando in un castello…ha reso la vacanza un SOGNO. Tutto bellissimo, se si rientra tardi c’è difficoltà di parcheggio anche in bassa stagione però merita. Si può entrare H24 da una porticina apposita lato cancello.

Cons:

Unica pecca le strade sono davvero scoscese e strettissime.

Perfekter Aufenthalt! Wir kommen wieder!
Pros:

Super geführtes Haus mit sehr nettem Personal. Tolle Aussicht, reichhaltiges Frühstück, saubere Zimmer, sehr ruhig gelegen. Was will man mehr?

Cons:

Relativ beschwerlicher Weg in die Stadt. Allerdings gibt es einen Lift vom Mönchsberg zur Talstation. Man muss auf dem Rückweg einkalkulieren, dass man viele Stufen wieder zum Mönchsberg hoch muss, wenn der Lift ab 21 Uhr geschlossen hat.
