Top Salzburg Hotel Reviews

IMLAUER Hotel Pitter Salzburg

8/10 Good

"The hotel was lovely but they list having laundry services which they do not have."

Altstadthotel Wolf-Dietrich

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was on a quiet side street that had cute shops and restaurants nearby. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The double room was just the right size with comfortable beds and very clean. We enjoyed the wine in the bar. We had a very pleasant stay for 2 nights."

IMLAUER Palais Mirabell

8/10 Good

"The location on Mirabellplatz was great, and the staff was very friendly and helpful with recommendations and directions. The bed was nice and firm, and the hotel was fairly well soundproofed. The hotel breakfast seemed very overpriced to us, especially since there were good, reasonably priced options nearby. All in all, we enjoyed our stay, we would recommend the hotel, and we would stay there again if we were ever back in Salzburg."

Das Jedermann Boutiquehotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean and easy."

Radisson Blu Hotel & Conference Centre, Salzburg

10/10 Excellent

"Good stay for 1 night. Close to bus station and parking was easy to get to from hotel elevators."

Dorint City-Hotel Salzburg

8/10 Good

"Belle chambre avec un petit salon à part. Tout était bien. Nous avons apprécié le fait d’avoir le parking souterrain. Mon seul commentaire négatif va à la douche. Étrange que ce soit dans un gros bain rond. Pourrait être dangereux de tomber."
