Wonderful hotel right in the heart of Salzburg. Easy walking distance to several attractions nearby. Very modern and clean rooms and fantastic breakfast as well as cafe/bar. The staff was extremely friendly and accomodating for our stay. In fact, we had lost a bag on a city bus the day we arrived. The front desk staff overheard our situation, and thanks to their help, we were able to track down the bag and save our vacation! 5 stars for the Arthotel Blaue Gans!

Need better blinds to block light!

Great hotel. However, they need better curtains and blinds to block off light. Bed was super comfortable but could not sleep long enough due to light flooding in! Otherwise, a really tastefully done swanky hotel in the best location! Staff were delightful!

Wonderful family trip

My husband, my almost 4-year-old, and I stayed in a city flat. It was a very lovely room with lots of space for everyone. My in-laws stayed in a more standard room and were very pleased with the size of the room and the bathroom. All staff (reception, restaurant, and cleaning staff) were very helpful and pleasant. The building was charming with many of interesting, old features mixed with modern elements. The location was also perfect- next to the bus stop to go to the airport and right in the heart of the old town. If back in Salzberg, I would definitely stay here again. The entire family had nothing but good things to say about this hotel.

Fantastic hotel in the old town. Great location that is walking distance to museums, theatres, christmas markets, shopping, cafes and restaurants. Room was a good size, clean and comfortable. Design and decoration of the room and hotel was very nice. It was a bit hectic finding a spot to pull over to check in and take in our bags as this is a very busy area. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Parking is in a public garage up the street but the staff hepled guide us. Hotel gives a decent discount on the parking fee. Overall, 5 stars. Would definitely stay here again.
