Hotels near Residenz, Salzburg

Hotel location was very good, walkable distance from Salzburg train station. Surrounding has a lot of food options. Hotel room was big and clean, very comfortable stay. Love the staff and they were very friendly and helpful for advices to get around Salzburg. Hotel provided a guest mobility pass and allowed for public transport travel within Salzburg for free. Hotel was environmentally friendly, offered a 5€ voucher if we skipped housekeeping for a day.

We absolutely loved Salzburg, and this hotel made our stay even more enjoyable. The room was very spacious for the three of us, with plenty of space to relax. After a long day of sightseeing, we often spent our evenings lounging on the sofa and watching Netflix together. The location is excellent—just a short walk from the main train station as well as the main bus and tram station. It was incredibly convenient, especially when catching early morning trains, and the flat roads made it easy to travel with luggage. The Salzburg Guest Card was also a fantastic bonus. It helped us save a lot on transportation, allowing us to hop on and off buses and trams whenever we felt like exploring different parts of the city. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and would gladly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Salzburg.

Overall a really pleasant stay. Location was great, with a 24h mart at petrol station just beside the hotel, and 2 min walk to a row of supermarkets nearby. Bus stop just beside hotel with easy access to the Salzburg central station and to the city. Room is slightly dated, though with interesting music/mozart design carpets. Toilet looked more modern with good water pressure. Service was also good, receptionists were friendly. Will consider returning if I’m back in Salzburg.

I booked for three nights and when I checked in, the hotel staff initially couldn't find our reservation. After some confirmation, we were able to check in smoothly. We were given a room on the second floor, but once inside, we found the mini-fridge was broken. So, I went downstairs and asked the front desk to switch our room. The new room was further inside. The fridge worked, but the air conditioning wasn't very cold. Luckily, it wasn't too hot at night, so it was fine. I'd read reviews mentioning some guests had items stolen, so we didn't leave any valuables in the room and kept our suitcases locked. However, when the towels were replaced daily, I'm not sure if it's because we didn't leave the floor mats on the ground or what, but they were always taken away and not replaced (it's also possible the hotel doesn't provide them). The plastic bottles I intended to return were also taken (but that's quite normal, so it's fine). The area around the hotel does feel a bit desolate, possibly because it's behind a department store and next to a construction site. We could hear hammering from the construction site in the mornings. It's quite close to the train station and bus stops, but for the price we paid, I think it was significantly overpriced. The hotel staff offered us free luggage storage (they mentioned guests normally have to use lockers). In the afternoons, there's iced water and small cookies available on the first floor.

The breakfast is good, the location is also very good, close to the train station. The front desk and breakfast are opposite the room. There is also a parking lot. There is no car. I don't know how the parking lot is charged.

I am stayed at Hotel Mercure Salzburg City for two nights during my time in Salzburg, and it turned out to be an excellent base for exploring the city. What made the stay even better was being upgraded for free to a premium room, which included a complimentary mini bar — a very welcome perk after a day of sightseeing. The premium room was spacious, clean and modern, with a comfortable bed, good lighting and plenty of storage space. The free mini bar was a nice extra touch, allowing me to relax in the evening without needing to head back out for drinks. The hotel felt quiet and well-run, which made it easy to rest, even though it’s located in a busy and well-connected part of the city. Location is one of the hotel’s strongest points. It is less than a 10-minute walk from Salzburg’s main train station, which is ideal if you’re arriving by rail or planning day trips to places like Hallstatt or Vienna. It’s also around a 15-minute walk to the centre of the Old Town, meaning you can reach Salzburg’s most famous sights — such as the Cathedral, Mozart’s birthplace and the Hohensalzburg Fortress — without needing public transport. Airport access is also extremely straightforward. Bus number 2 from Salzburg Airport stops just a minute’s walk from the hotel, making transfers simple, quick and inexpensive. This is particularly helpful if you have luggage or an early flight. I would recommend Hotel Mercure Salzburg City to anyone looking for a comfortable, well-located hotel that balances convenience with good value. It’s not overly luxurious, but it offers everything you need for a smooth and enjoyable stay in Salzburg, making it a smart choice for both short city breaks and longer trips.

Free parking is available, but you'll need a car to get to the city center. Everything else was great, and they even offer free coffee in the afternoon. Highly recommended for those traveling by car.

It's not far from the train station and very close to the bus stop, making it convenient to take the bus. The shower room is a bit small, but everything else is quite good.

Very nice hotel with large comfortable room, comfortable bed and clean bathroom. Staff were super helpful when I accidentally left my laptop in my room when checking out. Also, much appreciated the gluten free bread for breakfast that was delicious and very safe (came in its own vacuum bag and I was given a pair of scissors so I could open the bag myself) — highly recommend for travellers with celiac.

Online in person registration should be illegal lmao, what are humans for then? I agree with Pre online checking but in person online checking is kinda dumb. Also want to mention that you guys send too much emails, especially annoying when its not translated into the traveler language. Appart from that it was clean, simple but nice hotel. I would recommend it, good value! Lacks better luminosity in the bathroom. Toilets and sink area are too dark.
