Cocoon Salzburg
The room was good, and the staff was excellent. Location to train station is great, but the walk to old town is pretty sketchy. Not the best neighborhood to go through. I would recommend staying closer to the attractions.

IMLAUER Hotel Pitter Salzburg
Beautiful hotel in a great location. Helpful staff. Awesome rooftop bar. Room was lovely except for the air conditioner didn’t work very well. It basically blew hot air. This would definately be an issue in the summer.

Leonardo Boutique Hotel Salzburg Gablerbräu
Very cozy, modern boutique hotel, close to all the main attractions in the Old City. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. I’m sensitive to noise, and they kindly provided me with a very quiet room. The only thing that could be improved is the pillows, which could be more comfortable.
