“Friendly, family run hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 January 2012

We spent 2 nights in Salzburg and found the Hohenstauffen Hotel delightful. The staff was overly friendly and very helpful in giving us tips on seeing Salzburg. It is located in a quiet area just a 5 minute walk from the train station and about 20 minutes from the Old Town. The walk to the Old Town is along the river on a walk/bike path. It is a scenic and safe walk. The breakfast buffet was nice and the hotel is very cozy. They have a tray of butter cookies on the reception desk and one evening, served some gluhwein to a few of us sitting in the reception area, as it was Christmas Market season. We asked for a "local" place to eat on our last night and we were sent about 5 blocks away to a great little restaurant/bar for dinner. We enjoyed our stay there and would recommend it highly.

“Lots of character”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 January 2012

This is very good value for money. The rooms are very clean and quite big, each room looks different, maybe a little dated, but with lots of real character. The hotel is very close to the main station - to the city centre it's 25 minutes' walk along the river. All the staff is very friendly, unobtrusive but extremely helpful if help is needed. The breakfast buffet is not too big, but with lots of nice things that should feed anyone.

“Family-run hotel near to the Salzburg HBF”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 January 2012

The hotel is near to the main station - dont follow the instructions on google which will bring you on a long walk by the main streets. You could cut across the bus station, and will be able to reach the hotel in approximately 5 mins without luggage. The staff is very friendly, advising us on where to go and when to go (we arrived in Salzburg and the next day was a PH so the hotel staff advised us to visit the Christmas markets first to avoid the crowd as we had children with us). The rooms are clean, furniture is a bit dated but there is a nice antique-looking stereo in the room which you could listen in to the local broadcasts. Breakfast is included in the room rate and is sufficient, you could ask for eggs if you want. All in all, it was a satisfactory and value-for-money stay (others hotels in Salzburg could easily cost you twice the price).

Room Tip: If you want a bigger room, get a triple room. Its not too ex, and you get more space.

“Very good hotel near main station”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 January 2012

Very easy walk from the hbf station. Very friendly and helpful staff advising us of where to go and how to walk to the old part of Salzburg. Rooms clean, the whole hotel had lots of character. They even stored our luggage for us all day free of charge even though we were only spending one night with them - excellent service. The buffet breakfast was very good value and the eggs were cooked perfectly. Would recommend this hotel to any visitor wishing to stay near the station.

Room Tip: Request non smoking room
