It's hard to compare this to a hotel, because it is literally a college dorm. But it's much nicer than I had in college. It's not inexpensive though - we paid almost as much as some hotels we stayed in. I chose this place for something different, and the convenient on site parking (free). The rooms and bulding are very... more

For the price, you won't find a better deal in the old town of Salzburg. St. Sebastian is basically one of the many accomodations run by the Catholic church around Salzburg. They don't advertise, and it's a well-kept secret for those in the know- most people walk right by the big wooden door on the side street between Linzergasse and... more

We loved our stay here! It has all the basics of a hostel, except it is quiet. We stayed 3 nights with our 2 children in a quad room with our own bath. We were very comfortable. Rooms are truly dorm rooms. There are facilities for cooking, doing laundry, low-cost internet. Very clean. Don't stay here if you are expecting... more

The Institut St Sebastian is, I strongly suspect, the cheapest accommodation anywhere near the Old Town of Salzburg, and that alone makes it well worth consideration by anyone interested. It's handy for public transport to and from the main train station, although the directions I was given were a bit sketchy both ways. Just remember that it's on the grounds... more

I stayed in a twin room with a friend. The hostel is located right beside St Sebastian church. I'll list down the pros and cons of staying there: Pros: 1. Very clean room 2. Relatively quiet 3. Just off Linzer Gasse, a shopping street 4. There is a lift in the hostel (5 floors), but to go upstairs only. You... more

We stayed at the Institut for 3 nights in June 2007. I really enjoyed our stay there! We were traveling with our 20-year old daughter, so we had a triple room with our own bath. Although space was tight and the furnishings dorm room and basic, the beds were comfortable and everything was very clean! The young women who worked... more

I stayed here just for one night on my way through Salzburg to the mountains and it was just perfect. Low rates, super clean, basic and comfortable. the location is very convenient. I wanted to take advantage of the few hours I had to see the old town and this was easy to do. I was able to leave my... more

The Institute St. Sebastian is an excellent value. It's not fancy, but it is clean and the staff friendly and helpful. The location is also excellent, offering easy access to sites. I would certainly recommend it. If you want to be pampered, look somewhere else (and pay much more). But if you're looking for clean, inexpensive accomodation, this is it. more

Remember those dorm rooms that you saw in pictures before you went to college? You know, the ones that were spotless that had nothing but a perfectly made bed, freshly painted walls, new desk and nice light fixtures - that is exactly what my room looked like. This is definitely no frills. But, it was spotless, efficiently run, safe and... more
