This is the most cozy hostel where I have ever been. I loved all the wood there. The kitchen were fully equiped and the hostel was near to everything we wanted to see in the city. We enjoyed our stay!:)

Everything about this location is amazing - such beautiful views and we had a thunderstorm one night which looked amazing from the top of this hill. Basic accom but so clean and food and drinks were brilliant. Good exercise getting up and down into Salzburg which we enjoyed. Did obligatory Sound of Music tour which was fab. Highly recommend 😊

It was a good price, and the double room had 4 additional beds beside the double bed which should come in handy if you have children.

the hotel had a very good quality for the money. The family room is very large and comfortable better then in some expensive hotels in the area. The feeling of freedom. At the reception we found our key, no need to complete as in other hotels the formulary before accessing the room.

All hostels in Salzburg

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    View outstanding, but of course a hike to earn it! Once you get used to those stairs it goes more quickly but the first hike up with bags was grueling. Clean clean clean, very safe feeling place, youth hostel vibe (but super clean!)

    One of the best hostels I’ve been to. Very cheap but the hostel offered a lot like free towel and toiletries. It’s very clean as well. It’s close to the train station and check-in is very quick. They send a booking code that can be used on a self-Checkin machine that actually works. Will definitely stay here again when I go back to Salzburg.

    The hostel was in a great location, on a quiet street halfway between the train station and the city centre. Staff were friendly and always around to answer any questions. There were lots of ladies showers, and they were kept very clean. Rooms were spacious and included a desk and a secure locker each (which locked with your room key). The bunk beds were really solidly built and comfortable (not the flimsy squeaky type you get in most cheap hostels!) Coffee, tea and juice available at reception throughout the day was a nice bonus.

    The eco concept and design was cool. Loved the reclaimed wood and dangling light bulb and socket design. The decor was practical and beautiful. Beds were sturdy and comfortable. Great communal areas - had a good backpacker/hostel vibe. Easy to check-in, convenient luggage storage and easy to get from the airport and hauptbahnhof. Safe location and quiet. Great for a solo female traveller. About 10mins walk from the city centre.
