"A very clean and well presented hotel, with easy parking. However, the room we booked was not available on the day of arrival and the replacement was disappointing.

"First, this was our first time to Salzburg, and we really loved the city. After the first night I was ready to rate this really low due to the fact that a remodeling project was underway right next door, and the noise was terrible. First morning we were awakened at 7:00am to a thunderous chorus of hammering and sawing, literally on the common wall that our bed was on! I later went to the hotel, which is where you check-in, and explained the unacceptable situation to the young lady at desk. I...

But, again, I didn't stay here for the bed quality. I stayed here because of the lore of the von Trapps."

"I only stayed here because it was the only available hotel in Salzburg for my stay (to see the Super Cup), so I had low expectations. It turned out that the hotel was about a 20 minute taxi/Uber from the airport, and from the city centre, but the real bonus was, it's a 25 minute walk from the stadium which made my life much easier. The room had a lovely patio, there was beer for purchase in the lobby 24/7 and there was a supermarket/grocery store next door to the hotel, so I found the hotel to be relatively convenient for what I needed, to watch a football match."
