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! 🤗

Exceptional service by the staff. In particular I'd like to call out and thank Tom for making our check in smooth.

    the hotel has fully renovated rooms with modern decoration. its location is superb as it is walking distance to most prominent attractions (ie, Motzart house, Mirabele Gardens) - the roof top restaurant offers superb cuisine with an stunning view of the castle. We dined there for our father’s 80th birthday and the chef raised for the occasion.
