We've stayed at this hotel for a third time. It's great value for money. The rooms are functional and clean. The staff at reception is welcoming and you can get tea and coffee in the communal areas. Salzburgu city centre can be reached within a half hour walk. The hotel has a couple parking spaces. When they are taken parking on the street is free over the weekends as well with plenty of space available during our stay.

Couldn't have asked for more. Lovely big room with a sofa and a mountain view out of the window, clean shower room with good water pressure, a nice comfy bed, and Christoph on reception was friendly and helpful.

The hotel is only seven minutes' walk from the station - the immediate area around it is a sort of light industrial area, nothing wrong with it but there's not a lot on the doorstep - however there are regular buses into town and you get free public transport as part of the city taxes you pay when you stay in Salzburg.

Comfort and convenience at low cost

Clean, comfortable, close to bus stop, train station and grocery store, and walkable to main attractions.

Privacy and convenience at hostel cost.
Staff very friendly and helpful.

Only one annoying thing - bright lights turn on automatically when you exit your room into the hallway at night to use the restroom.
Would have preferred a gentler light during night hours.

Would love to stay again.

Nice Hotel with Friendly Staff

We arrived early in the day and the staff went out of their way to get the room ready for us within 15 minutes of arrival -- even though official check-in time wasn't until much later in the day. The room was simple and clean. Three of us stayed in the room, and there was one double bed and one chair that folded out to a bed, which they'd already made up for us. If you follow the hotel's directions on getting to/from the main train station (through the parking lot of an apartment building), the walk was short (about 8 minutes) and straightforward. They assisted us with how to use the bus which stopped just across the street to get downtown, as well. Everyone on staff was extremely nice.

We stayed 2 nights here while visiting Salzburg. It was a nice stay. The staff was very friendly and accommodating to English. We even lost one the keys for our rooms and they did not charge for it. Exceptional service. The only complaint was the shower in the room. It wasn’t the shower itself. The heat and pressure were fantastic. It was the fact that the doors to the shower leaked water out into the room. But I would definitely recommend it as a place to lay low near Salzburg.

We enjoyed the daily breakfast for 10 Euros. I also loved the chance to enjoy a cup of coffee during the day.
Our room had its own sink and shower and we shared a toilet down the hall. We had no issues with this. As a suggestion, our shower in the room had no light, so it was a bit dark. I understand due to infrastructure issues, a light maybe can't be installed, but perhaps a battery operated one could work? It didn't deture us, it's just a suggestion.

We stayed in one of the apartment units. Everything was very clean and there were no surprises. The breakfast was good, and the staff was friendly. I think they have eight free parking spaces on site and within a block or so of the hotel. Between those and street parking, we didn’t have any issues. The location was very convenient. It’s very easy to get to by car, right next to a bus stop, and is a pleasant 15 minute walk to the old city.

Great position, walking distance to the station and to the Festung.

Would have liked an en-suite bathroom rather than having to share the toilet. There is no exhaust in the room, which means the condensation from the shower can’t be removed effectively. The bed is positioned against a wall, which makes it hard for the second person to get in and out of bed.

All the staff are incredibly friendly and helpful.

Overall, a good place to stay.

Clean, convenient for train station

Clean and friendly, comfortable rooms. No staff presence at night means that when a disturbance happens as when we stayed there is no one to sort things out unless a guest calls the police.

Ok hotel that could be better

It is a nice hotel, but it would need some improvments. We had the chmabee with a shower and the shower was really disgusting. They should completely remove it. Also, because we are close to a main street, there is a lot of noise at night. Walls are also very thin. The hotel is kind enough to give you free earplugs to help you sleep.

would not return

Despite their reply to my initial thoughts on checking in, my evaluation persists. Pension Elizabeth is a lesser quality hotel and is located away from Salzburg proper. Sounds from others in rooms, the hallways and the communal toilets were unwelcome and unexpected. There were no black out curtains, so sunrise at six lent to early starts or eyemasks. While the mattress was comfortable, the pillows were lumpy and square.

It was not a good experience

I wish I didn't book this hotel.

For one, the lady who checked me in was cold. She was polite, but cold. The way she stated:\"Check-out time is 11, the latest, please!\" just made me feel so unwelcome.

For two, in my room there was no Internet. I was put in a room that is in a small building away from the main building where I checked in. I spent over 20 minutes to try to connect to its WiFi with different devices, all failed. So I went back to the main building, that lady told me that she knew WiFi in my room was not working, but I could stay in the waiting area by the reception to use Internet. She didn't say anything to express any sorry about such an inconvenience. After coming back from dinner, the reception area was closed. I had to stay outside of that building to use Internet. Of course, it was very uncomfortable.

Next day at check-out, it was a different lady working there. I told her it was a major bother not to have Internet in my own room. She said she would talk to the manager to give me some discount. Now a week past, I have not heard anything from them.

My staying at this place was not a good experience. I certainly would not stay there again.
