Room was nice....very nice for the price compared to other places I have stayed in Salzburg over the years (larger room than I was use to in hotels that are within the town). Front desk was very nice and accommodating. Breakfast buffet was very nice and great deserts as well. More

We have just spent nearly a week at Blaue Gans, booking 3 rooms for the whole family. We loved the modern room with art and very warm-coloured furniture. It is of very good taste and a good fusion in a very old building where the restaurant still looks 'traditional'. Great food, both breakfast buffet and dinner (venison and all...). Service... More

The location is great but somehow this hotel was not all that I had expected. We had booked a large room and it was pretty much as shown on the website. However we were shocked to find one wall had been drawn on! I asked reception if we could be moved and was told it was "artwork" by a famous... More

Took the wife here in early December for our wedding anniversary and quickly fell in love with the city, the Christmas markets and the gluhweine. The Arthotel Blaue Gans is right in the middle of it all, only a 10 Euro taxi from the airport, and nice an intimate. The bedroom was clean and well-decorated, albeit a bit on the... More

As a part of our roadtrip from Munich to Budapest, we stayed one night in Salzburg. In every city our priority of choosing a hotel was that it should be centrally located to save time. The location of Hotel Blaue Gans was perfect! The building is old and the rooms are simple, modern and functional - I guess the layout... More

We had two days at this hotel including Christmas day and it was just wonderful. From the friendly staff at the front desk, and everywhere else, to the breakfast, and the room which was delightful, nothing was left to chance. We stayed in a suite on the third floor and it was huge. We had a seperate room within the... More

My husband and I stayed here in September, 2011 in the middle of a tour of Germany, Austria and the Czech Republic. Overall, my feelings about this hotel are mixed. There was no part of it that I would say was absolutely horrible, but nothing that was exceptional either. Probably the best aspect of this hotel is the location, right... More

Good location and very friendly staff but I had to change rooms as I was bitten badly all over my arms over two nights which led to a bad rash and blisters. Being a doctor the most likely reason was bedbugs. They did change my room and were very apologetic. Breakfast was also chaotic with the wrong items being brought... More

thank you very much for your words about the friendliness of our staff. concerning your suspicion of bedbugs: we would like to let you know that our mattresses are cleaned periodically by a specialized company. the mattresses are collected and chemically desinfected. this is why in the past a case of bed bugs never occurred in our hotel. in addition,...

I really liked the design of this hotel, it is super modern but you somehow never forget that you are in an old building. I have stayed in other places with a similar concept that have lost the feel of the old building. I particularly like the breakfast/dining room just off reception which has retained the shape of the old... More

This room was a gem right on the main walkway through Salzburg. It was a bit expensive but worth it in my mind for the sheer comfort of the room and the location - immediately next to everything within walking distance in Salzburg. The bedding was wonderful and there was an adorable sitting area - I only wish we had... More
