3 Stars Hotels in Salzburg State, Austria

Booked this hotel for our ski holiday as only 60-90 mins from many ski resorts. Breakfast is amazing with lots of choice and every day had scrambled eggs and bacon plus many other options. Bus too opposite with number 4 bus running about every 20 mins until about 2230 hours. Cost for single is €3 euros. (Only take cash on buses). They also offer a day ticket for €4.50 but not sure if you have to buy this from a machine as didn’t offer on bus. You can buy a return ticket! We never had an issue with parking although the car park was often busy as the Sushi restaurant is very popular. There is also a Chinese buffet restaurant opposite called Huy Cook and Eat. ({€25). Food was good. They offered lots of raw fish and I wasn’t aware that they actually cook it for you! Rooms were cleaned every day and shower was awesome. I would have given this 5 stars but some of the reception staff weren’t very helpful. Eg. Not knowing any information about basic stuff like the buses!

We were on our way to Greece and needed a place to stay the night. This hotel is just next to the highway and next to a McDonald's. So you have to eat and don't lose time through the city. They offer a parking space without charging as well and the check in was possible till late in the evening. The price is very good, the room nothing special but exactly what we needed. The pillows could be more comfortable but otherwise nothing to complaint.

Die Zimmer sind schön und sehr ruhig. Das Negative: Wir hatten über die Plattform Trip.com gebucht und dort war das Frühstück mit 13 Euro angegeben, das man vor Ort bezahlen könne. Im Hotel verlangte man aber 19 Euro, obwohl ich die Webseite von Trip.com vorzeigte. Die Dame an der Rezeption meinte, die Fa. Trip.com wäre ein externer Anbieter und man müsse sich nicht an deren Preisen orientieren. Einen Nachlaß auf das Frühstück wollte sie nicht geben, da auch das Frühstück von einer externen Firma geliefert werde und das Hotel keinen Einfluß auf deren Preisgestaltung habe. Erhebt sich die Frage, wozu überhaupt noch jemand in der Rezeption steht, wenn man für nichts zuständig ist.

Although the price of 1,500 is not in the main building, the room is not depressing. The main building, including the library, is open for tours. Breakfast is also in each room in the main building. The environment and food are very good. Every staff member is very nice. It takes 20 minutes to walk to the main church and other places.

Very nice spacious and very practical room. Large bathroom. No air conditioning but fan. Quiet. No reception on site so do the Check before. Difficult internet on site. 30 mins walk from the city center. Possible to make coffee and tea in the room and several supermarkets nearby. Access to the building is not very warm.

As we booked that hotel we were not really aware that there is Hotel Neutor and Neutor Express and as we arrived at the Reception we learned that we are booked in Neutor Express, just across the street. Just out of curiosity I asked for a price for a double room , one night with breakfast in the regular Neutor I understood that the offer was about 40 Euro more expensive. Because we were travelling on budget I kept the original booking at the Express. I did not cross my mind till we opened the door to the booked room that this room is definitely in need of paint and refurbishment from top to bottom, including the bathroom! If it would not have been late in the evening and we were exhausted after a full day travelling, we definitely would have left on the spot. The floor was covered with an old, stained wall to wall carpet, the headpiece of the bed stained, the furniture shabby and the bathroom with mould around the tiles of the bathtub. I was wondering if ”Express” means to expect such a low level of cleanliness and outdated furniture? We survived the night and had breakfast at the regular Hotel Neutor across the street which had an updated breakfast room and looked well taken care of. I learned something really important that day, always! to read the reviews first before booking!

This hotel is modern, clean and friendly and just steps to the center of Salzburg's historic center and restaurant/shopping district. They offer a well-stocked buffet that will appeal to guests from any country. The personnel at the front desk are professional and welcoming, from the moment you arrive to the time you check out. We were happy with everything here, but especially the location made it so easy to visit the city highlights in the morning and head back for a short rest after lunch before heading back for dinner in one of the many good restaurants in the area. They offer indoor parking, but it is for a fee.

Everything is very good except for a little further from the city centre, perfect for self-driving tourists. Great value for money! In the peak season of July and August, this price is really nothing to say.

The restaurant was not available and we were told beforehand so I can’t rate that. However the room size for 3 was plenty and was good for the price. The room was clean and had one larger bed a a single that were a little firm but comfortable, pillows and a blanket on each and were nicely made. A small table was in the middle of the room under a tv with on a pivot arm, so if you travel with an hdmi cable you’ll be able to access it. There were two windows/doors that were both useable and on even led to a small patio with a couple of chairs. Inclement weather kept us from utilizing this. There is also a standing fan for use and a wardrobe to keep your clothes in. The building is situated between a couple of bus stops for easy access so pick up a day pass for your duration. Using google maps will tell you which bus number to get on and when to exit the bus. The bathroom was well equipped and has an enclosed corner shower which is small (3.5ft/4ft square?) so keep your elbows in! Shower gel was provided as was hand soap at the sink. The towel rack was right about the radiator if you want to warm up your towels prior. Any time after May and you might not want to. The hotel isn’t flashy and the lobby is nice and well done. We stayed for 3 nights and tried to opt for an additional night but the room was already booked. We didn’t have any street noise and didn’t really hear any room neighbors until the last night. Thank you to the staff for their language skills!

We have just returned from a 7 night stay at the Hotel Das Essigmanngut. When we arrived at the hotel to we were greeted by friendly staff who couldn't of been more helpful. They gave us lots of information about the surrounding area including maps, local amenities and suggestions of things to do. The local Bus 25 was extremely convenient for us to get into Salzburg and the surrounding area and was only a 5 minute walk from the hotel. There was a good free car park at the hotel for those travelling by car but we relied on public transport which was fantastic. The hotel itself was immaculate. Everything was to a very high standard and eco conscious. There was plenty of places to sit inside and out and we made use of the complimentary hot drinks machine. We had a superior two bedroom apartment which included a small kitchenette, two bathrooms and two balconies. The rooms were cleaned daily to high standard by hardworking staff. Comfortable beds, toiletries and brand new, spacious bathrooms. Breakfast has to be one of the hightlights of our stay. Would go as far to say it was the best Breakfast we'd ever had abroad. There was always somewhere to sit even on the busier weekends. There was PLENTY of choice and the food was constantly being replenished. Hot and cold options to cater for all ages and tastes. A relaxing and enjoyable experience each morning, a great way to start the day before exploring Salzburg. One small negative for us was there is no restaurant or bar facility on site. So you do need to venture out for main meals. After a day spent exploring it would of been nice to have a proper sit down meal at the hotel and a relaxing drink into the evening. But we can't express how kind and helpful each member of staff was. All in all we highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking to explore Salzburg and the surrounding areas. You will not be disappointed.

We visited Salzburg on the 4th week of August recently. We stayed in Das Salz with my family. Its a different kind of a hotel run by College students on a part time basis. The hotel does not have a reception, instead one of the students will be there between 9-5pm to address your concerns. The following are my feedback: PROS: 1. Good compact clean rooms. Quite spacious. 2. Great location with access to trains ( 10 min walking), bus stop( next to the hotel), departmental stores ( SPAR 100m) and lots of food options through restaurants. The city centre near Mirabel palace is about 15min walking fromm the hotel. 3. Decent restaurant at the lobby also operated by students. 4. Provision for luggage room and lockers to keep your valuable safe while you explore Salzburg. 5. The students are quite helpful and supportive. 6. Great options of bicycles and umbrellas on a rainy day. CONS: 1. No kettle and tea/coffe provisions in the room. 2. We were given Access number for Access to doors and rooms. No key or key cards. Once the Access number did not work. I had to request for a new Access number to get through. 3. The hotel is on the busy main road. If your windows is facing the main road, it makes a lot of sound in the busy hours. Hence you need to keep the windows closed. 4. Centralized A/C. The room A/C controls does not work. I tried many times. On a hot day, it would be very inconvenient.

It is really not far from the train station to take a taxi. There are also buses, and there are bus stops at the door. The room is clean and tidy and the area is ok. There is a supermarket next to it, there is a Chinese restaurant for 3-5 minutes, and the taste is very good.

The restaurant was not available and we were told beforehand so I can’t rate that. However the room size for 3 was plenty and was good for the price. The room was clean and had one larger bed a a single that were a little firm but comfortable, pillows and a blanket on each and were nicely made.

This is the nightmare hotel experience that people laugh about at dinner parties for years. Not at all funny at the time. FIRST BOUT - I had a $100 BW gift voucher, that stated clearly to produce it at check in. The girl at the desk didn't know what it was. I told her to try a drop down menu for payment? Call a supervisor? She was not up to the task. Dim. Very dim. SECOND BOUT - When I came down for coffee at 7am - the restaurant mgr quickly uncovered everything, turned the lights on. and asked how he could be of service. I said I only wanted coffee, because we were jet lagged. He snapped at me - ”Vhat? Jhoo no vant brekfahst? No, I apologized. Too early. Later maybe. ”I openz za rehstarhant for jhoo... now jhoo say -- jhoo no vant?” I wasn't up for an international incident, so I fled. Later, after we ate, I took a croissant from the breakfast bar to take up to my grand daughter who was suffering terribly from jet lag. She had eaten half an orange, and a bite of her mothers eggs. You would think I robbed the cash drawer. Same loony toon man runs after me to the elevator shouting - ”Jhoo must pay for anozer brekfast!!” What? I reminded him my granddaughter hadn't eaten... Didn't matter. He screamed to the clerk to charge my room for an additional breakfast. Over one croissant - to go. I slammed the croissant down on the counter, telling him to keep it. And I WAS charged another almost $12 -- I filed a complaint with BW and the Owners of the franchise. This isn't a hotel, it's a Hogan's Heroes rerun... complete with jack booted Colonel Klink, monitoring trips to the breakfast bar. INSANE .... quite insane.

Overall, it is a good place to stay for the price with basic amenities and simple rooms. Hotel food is good and best service there. While location is actually good with convenient bus connection into Salzburg directly in front of the property, it is a little difficult to find when driving from the autobahn. I don't understand why the hotel can't give precise instructions on how to find them being in a hidden street and even hidden from view from their own road ... such as ”Drive x kms off A2 away from Salzburg, then at the BP gas station traffic circle take the 2nd exit onto X road, drive 100 meters to the first street on the left” (or similar). Even the front of the hotel is hard to see and the front door is not at all visible from the road. Anyway ... front desk really needs to learn about hospitality ... plus during the day they are OFTEN not around having to wait for someone to come or beg restaurant staff to find someone to help at front desk ... even just to get room key. Note ... no air conditioning in hot summer months and window only opens a crack so hard to get some cooler air at night. Very little English TV (2 news channels).

This is the only negative review I am posting from our recent trip thru Austria Italy and Greece, of 8 hotels and inns. We had a 3 night stay at the Obermayer Inn, a 35 minute drive to Salzburg. The first night dinner was terrible, over salted, a mess of a presentation, meat was tough, just an overall extremely disappointing meal. The rooms were small, not a lot of space to move around, tripping over our luggage, no bar fridge, bathrooms small. Beds and bedding was very nice. Breakfasts were good, staff worked diligently to stock the buffet presentation, line up at the coffee machine, had to wait, bit of a nuisance. Third and last night we decided to give the hotel restaurant another try, unfortunately it was closed for a private event, only drinks. This was another disappointment, why couldn’t they have told us, why couldn’t they have posted notices that it would be closed? We wound up back in Salzburg, driving around looking for a suitable place to eat that wasn’t pizza or fast food. Returning to the Obermayer after a fine meal at another hotel we discovered the parking lot full and overflowing, we had to park on the shoulder of the highway 100 metres away. This private event ended after 10:00 pm and we were able to move the car into a legal parking spot on hotel property. Private event, drinks only, designated drivers, maybe, but I viewed several men leaving on their own. I believe this to be a favourite gathering place for locals, there is even a table in the dining area set aside for locals only, friendly, they smile and say hello. My brother in law who has stayed there twice before and had very nice things to say about the Obermayer, how quaint it is, Bavarian inn, now swears he will not stay there ever again. The good; the bed and bedding was very nice, the breakfast staff worked diligently, and parking was free, if you could find a parking spot.

This stay coincided with the road construction in front of the hotel, the hotel did not place relevant detour instructions, etc. The hotel rooms are small, the facilities are relatively old, and the sound insulation effect is average. It is said that the house is 700 years old. The service attitude at the front desk of the hotel is okay, but the waiter in the restaurant has a very different attitude towards locals and Asian tourists. They have a bad attitude towards Asian tourists and are very indifferent.

We wanted to stay outside the city to avoid crazy hotel prices for a short drive. NO REGRETS. This hotel was pretty perfect. The VIEW alone was worth it. We had a Mountain View, amazing breakfast buffet, friendly customer service, good prices, clean rooms, wifi, etc. If you’re staying here during the summer and are driving here, I recommend bringing a fan because there aren’t any in the room. That was my one issue. The shower is also somewhat small, but in my experience, that is normal in Europe. Overall, I would definitely come here again! This hotel is also walking distance to a grocery store, playground, bakery, etc.

Everything is very good except for a little further from the city centre, perfect for self-driving tourists. Great value for money! In the peak season of July and August, this price is really nothing to say.

Hospitable, neat, friendly and warm. We really had a great time here. Very nice warm rooms that are very clean. The breakfast for 4 euros is delicious and quite extensive, something for everyone. Also a beautiful area and very close to all the sights. A big 10 for the hostess
