9.6/10 Exceptional! (450 reviews)
Beautiful little hotel with lovely rooms. The breakfast was excellent and I can’t say enough about the staff. They are what made this an exceptional experience. The woman who took care of us at breakfast was so kind, so efficient and a delight. I’m afraid I didn’t get her name. What made this property for me was the presence of Ulriue. She greeted us, checked us in, showed us around our room, including helping me with my luggage. She made us laugh, helped us, welcomed us at breakfast, and always with such a kind smile. I will remember this place because of Ulriue and I would go back because of her. Thank you, Ulriue! From broken hand girl. 😉

Comfortable, welcoming place. Nice room, helpful staff, good location: close to the train station and Mirabell Gardens. And Salzburg is such a beautifully walkable city! The breakfast (included) was very basic; a little more options would have helped. But overall quite a peasant time there!
