Reviews of a&o Salzburg Hauptbahnhof
KULDEEP SHARMA
Location is great & that’s the key feature of this hostel. Other than that I don’t think anything else requires worth giving attention. No Fan or AC in the rooms. One of the ladies at the reception was so rude when I was taking water from the tap at the reception, as if I had taken her kidneys out. Being into service Industry, people should know how to behave with customers. Breakfast was OK with ...

Stayed in 6 bed mixed dorm, did not have a pleasant experience. For starters, hotel very understaffed considering the size of the place. Only one person on reception leading to long queues particularly when checking in. Room was not available until 3pm, so I had to pay an additional €5 just to store my bag in the meantime. Despite being advertised as budget friendly, be prepared for additional cos...

We stayed in a private room for four people, with our own bathroom. The toilet and shower were in two separate rooms, which was super convenient.

The common area on the ground floor was spacious and clean, and the...

The hotel is near to the main station and the room was spacious and clean. The washrooms were clean and neat. I had a pleasant and peaceful stay here. My room was not a shared type but an individual room for two adults. Everything was nice and for the cost I paid for, the services and facilities were upto the mark. I would really recommend this place for a peaceful and pleasant stay. I didn't face...

This is a modern, simple, clean hostel. We stayed for two nights, one night was in a double room for two people and the other night was a family room for six people. Everything was clean and comfortable. The breakfast was fine. I liked it that they are trying to reduce waste and they are asking the guests to clean up after themselves using funny memes. All the staff members were friendly and profe...
