Very nice location in the old town of salzburg. The Breakfast was great but limited. The breakfast staff was outstanding and friendly. The housekeepers were also outstanding a friendly always going the extra distance to make you feel comfortable. Word of warning if you are driving and using a GPS for directions. It will give you directions to the walking street not the area behind the hotel where you can unload. I believe another review mentioned this, if I would not have read that, we would have been lost. All in all, outstanding location and all within walking distance. If it wasn't for the skiing, we would have never needed the car. You are paying for the location. Make sure you ask the staff about the parking, they did not tell us until checkout and be departed the public garage 4 times before they mentioned a discount rate for parking. Very limited parking in front of the hotel to unload baggage. Saw varying courtesies upon checkin, my family checked in just prior to my friends family. The staff was very informative with them, while they merely gave us the room key with no explanation. I had to listen in on his speech to get the lowdown on the hotel.

Location Restaurant/Breakfast The room was ** Extremely ** hot. When asked reception for help all they could suggest is to open the window, with -5c outside. The room was quite noisy in the late evening hours due to music coming from its bar.

The personnel of hotel was excellent, very nice and helpfull and warm people. Very professional. I think that the price for the room was a bite on the high side considering the small, very small size of the room. Although I was told that we were lucky because we had a renovated room, I still think it was to small. We felt to tight. I would recommend this hotel, but I would advise them of the size of the rooms.

Loved this hotel. The room was fantastic, heaps of space, very clean and everything new. Location was great close to all the major sites and the staff were lovely. I would highly recommend this hotel. As an aside it has lovely little bits and pieces of art work around the place.

This hotel is located in the old city, in a walking distance to main attractions. It is on Salzburg's main shopping street. I prefer a room with darker curtains, to sleep.

The location was nice within the old city and the fortress was a short walk. The rooms were clean and comfortable. We arrived at the hotel in the late afternoon and the staff said we only had one room...thank God I had the confirmations to prove we had paid/reserved two rooms because without these they were not believing me. It was evident there was a mix-up since the room was not prepared and we had to wait for the extra bed to be made. No apologizies offered by this staff member. I am not sure what would have happened if I did not bring my confirmations with me. This first impression put a dark cloud over the stay

The hotel staff were very nice and very accommodating (especially as it related to alterations made to my reservation.) The location of the hotel was also very convenient. The hotel has a bit of an 'odd feel' to it - difficult to describe but felt by me and my husband. It's a very old building which has been updated to modern standards. Some of the nuances of the building's age were apparent throughout our stay. Further, the hotel promotes artists by displaying artwork throughout the building. Some of the artwork was very different and likely contributed to the 'odd sense' we had. Still, it was a nice hotel to stay in.

The central Salzburg location is ideal - step out of the door and you're in the shopping centre. Staff are very pleasant and apologetic, but service is abysmal. Two hour wait for a room we were then told had been available when we arrived, Reception phone unanswered, breakfast food good but uncleared tables, 20-30 minutes to get coffee and generally poor service.

Die Lage und der Service. Die Internetseite hat mich hinsichtlich des Zimmers angesprochen, aber man hat ein unpersönlich, kahles Zimmer im Ambiente eines alten Pensionszimmers bekommen und war somit als Gast Ihres Hauses enttäuscht. Die nächste Frage zur Weiterempfehlung könnte ich daher nur mit nein punkten.Das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis stimmt nicht. Meine Freundin hatte dagegen ein sehr schönes und ansprechendes Zimmer gehabt. Des weiteren ist zu bemängeln, dass Nichtraucher in Ihrer Bar keine Chance haben, ein Glas Wein ohne Rauchbeeinträchtigung zu genießen. SCHADE!

Месторасположение хорошее. Завтрак хороший. При заказе через Интернет видны фотографии, но номер дают не тот, маленький, практически без света, с окном во внутренний дворик на уровне внешнего пола. Стоимость такого номера не соответствует реальности. Были проблемы с Интернетом. Нет помощи персонала в доставке багажа в номер. Парковка недалеко, но стоимость не соответствует данным гостиницы. Персонал не читает пожелания гостя при заказе через Интернет. Хотя на сайте нет предупреждения, но по прибытии узнали, что отель для некурящих.

Очень удобное месторасположение для знакомства с городом и шопингом, старинный дом с дизайнерскими вставками из стекла. Потрясающе терпеливый и квалифицированный персонал, готовый понять и удовлетворить гостя не владеющего языками, кроме русского.

Ottime la posizione centrale e la cucina dell'hotel. La stanza prenotata tramite booking non corrispondeva a quella in cui abbiamo alloggiato.

“This hotel is in an excellent location in the old town so you can walk to most of the sights. The staff were always friendly and helpful. We had a large family room at the front with a view of the fortress. It was an excellent room. We enjoyed breakfast each morning with coffee, cold meats and cheese, fresh rolls and boiled eggs. We would gladly stay here again.” Linda, Holland Park |
