Hecht Lake

perfect location. Three block walk to the bridge which connected us to old town.

Hotel Stein has an amazing location. You walk out the lobby door, then cross the bridge and you are in Old Town Salzburg. We found the ease of the location to be one of the best parts! We had a city view double room. It was nice. The shower and bathroom were spacious. The reason for only 4 stars is the breakfast staff at the restaurant on the roof. Our breakfast was included (paid for), however because it was included we weren’t allowed to sit on the outside or in the shade when we went to breakfast. The staff was rude when we asked why. They said it was because the tables with the view were “reserved”- there were hardly any people there. We would have enjoyed our breakfast more if we were allowed to sit in the shade- but again- reserved. The hotel was great, but the rooftop bar and restaurant were disappointing because of the way we were treated.

Lovely room overlooking St Stephen’s. Sasha was extremely polite and helpful. Roasting hot and it is a boutique hotel so no air con.
