A lovely quiet location opposite the zoo and Hellbrunn Palace, and a bus ride direct to Salzburg or a short ride the opposite direction for the cable car. A lovely hotel with a fab view over the mountains from the back. Only downside for maybe a solo traveller is that there is no reception but on hand via whattsapp. Restaurant is not attached but def worth a visit as the food was wonderful. Not too far from other hotels and we found a couple of nice restaurant/bars.

The property has been designed elegantly and is very classy, but I think catering to all categories of customers was not considered. The apartment would be ideal for couples who are looking for a weekend getaway, but wouldn't be suitable for a family with kids. For the following reasons from my point of view 1. None of the rooms have a refrigerator, which is staple in any hotel rooms, to either keep the kids milk or food. Also if we chose to bring some beer or wine there is no where to keep it chill. Plus there isnt a common kitchen area that tenants could use. 2. The air conditioning in the room. From my experience there was only heating which is ideal if we are visiting in winter but we visited in June and Salzburg had temp of 28-30deg and there was no way we could cook the room apart from the slow breeze coming in from the windows. It was not comfortable. 3. No lift access to the floors, if for a weekend getaway yes a small bag is ideal but if travelling with family and carrying kids clothes the stairs are pretty narrow to comfortably carry the luggage to the rooms. 4. The room that we were assigned to was very small, which is ideal if you are only looking to crash the night but if you want a lazy day to be spend inside not the room. 5. No staff on site. Pros: 1. Ideal location. Easy access to Salzburg and Breschtgaeden. 2. Elegant design the apartments are very well designed and gives a premium feel. 3. Dedicated car parking space for tenants.
