"A very clean and well presented hotel, with easy parking. However, the room we booked was not available on the day of arrival and the replacement was disappointing. It was at the front of the hotel which suffered from road noise and was over 30’C at night, trying to sleep was almost impossible. It was not clear that breakfast was not included, overall very disappointing especially when compared to the following three hotels we stayed at."

"I only stayed here because it was the only available hotel in Salzburg for my stay (to see the Super Cup), so I had low expectations. It turned out that the hotel was about a 20 minute taxi/Uber from the airport, and from the city centre, but the real bonus was, it's a 25 minute walk from the stadium which made my life much easier. The room had a lovely patio, there was beer for purchase in the lobby 24/7 and there was a supermarket/grocery store next door to the hotel, so I found the hotel to be relatively convenient for what I needed, to watch a football match."
