“The location in Old Town makes it an excellent base for exploring Salzburg's attractions, though experiences appear inconsistent, notably in the restaurant. I appreciate the hotel's artistic vibe and helpful staff; eco-conscious initiatives, like bicycle rentals, are a plus. It's a promising choice, but manage expectations.”
