The Small Luxury Hotel Goldgasse occupies a 14th-century building located in a pedestrian area in the heart of Salzburg's historic Old Town.

The cathedral, the Getreidegasse, Mozart's birthplace, the festival halls, and the Salzach River are just a few minutes' walk away from Small Luxury Hotel Goldgasse. A public car park is situated nearby.

The location is best to stay as it's right in the old town and evrything to see is walking distance. When we reached Ulrike was waiting for us and what an amazing host she is we felt like we are at her home and not a hotel, she was very warm and welcoming. The rooms was very good size and and evrything was on point, they even have a lift.

The hotel staff was wonderful! They greeted us before we entered the door offering to help us with the luggage. From the front desk staff to housekeeping the staff was warm and thoughtful. Thomas during breakfast was so kind and provided my partner with a birthday cake! Breakfast was great and offered a wide variety of items on the menu.

Offering city views, Sarah's Altstadt Oase Salzburg is an accommodation situated in Salzburg, 700 metres from Mozart's Birthplace and less than 1 km from Getreidegasse. The property features mountain and river views, and is less than 1 km from Kapuzinerberg & Capuchin Monastery. The property is 1.2 km from Hohensalzburg Fortress, and within 200 metres of the city centre.

Our experience here was truly enchanting, thanks to the thoughtful and inspiring hostess, Sarah. Little did we know we would be staying with a family immersed in the soul of music. Upon returning from our day’s adventures, we were treated to beautiful music her son would play in the evening as he practiced on one of the many pianos throughout the floor. And, in a heartwarming unexpected gesture, after a wonderful conversation about the family’s musical journey, Sarah gifted me a beginner piano book, revealing that it wasn't just any book but a piece of her family's musical legacy. It had played a role in introducing her sons to the world of piano. Our stay at Sarah’s was not only enriched by the musical legacy but also, by the charming details of the room. The spacious yet cozy ambiance provided a perfect retreat with a nice view of the river. The thoughtful touches, including freshly baked cookies, a Nespresso coffee machine, a fruit bowl and toiletries in the bathroom, added a delightful layer to our experience. To amplify these amenities, the room was equipped with a Bose system, creating an atmosphere that resonated with the musical theme of our hostess's family. The combination of comfort, thoughtful amenities, and attention to detail in the room complemented the overall warmth and hospitality of our stay. Sarah's dedication to creating a memorable experience made our time there truly exceptional. Thank you for the unforgettable experience, Sarah! You’ll be happy to know I started practicing my piano! 🤗

    Had a fabulous stay at Pension Katrin. Hosts were super friendly and accommodating. My room was immaculate and cleaned daily. Breakfast was superb, with so much variety is was difficult to choose! Located just a 20 minute easy walk from the centre, I'd definitely stay here again and can't wait to go back. Some beautiful walks nearby too and a Spar just a 5 minute walk away for any forgot essentials. Good pizza restaurant a few minutes walk away.

    The property is charming - super modern and has luxurious touch inside. The bed is big and comfy. The balcony is a nice touch but we hardly go out as still cold. The size of the unit is quite big. Great heating inside too. It’s within walking distance to all key location - around 10 mins to Mirabellplatz and 15 mins to Salzburg Main Station. You can also take public bus by walking around 5 mins to the bus stop. There is Spar Grocery store across the building which is handy.

    Super clean. I was actually surprised that was that clean. As clean as a 5 stars hotel. The girl at the reception was so nice and she accepted to put me in a room with only girls. I love they respected and accepted my demand. I had to pay 4 euros extra for towel and bed sheets but its ok for the price payed. For the rest, everything needed in the room, even a tv and hair dryer!

    What was probably once a private house. But professionally run and fitted with top range bathroom and deluxe soaps from Clarins, which normally I see in 5-star hotels, so indicates their attention to detail. And beautiful small garden, lovingly tended.
