Wonderful stay four of us in a family group we were looked after from the moment we stepped over the threshold to the moment we left.cheap bus fare into city 1.4 euros and every 20 mins too.
great breakfast, warm cosy large rooms spotlessly clean with good views. Would not hesitate to stay again or recommend to anyone.

We stayed at The Bloberger Hof 24th - 26th Nov 2007 for 2 nights, we booked directly and paid around £60 per room per night, I think there is a cheaper room category though.

The Bloberger is a lovely guest house, we had one of the junior suite rooms which was lovely and very big, laid out on 2 floors.
The whole Guest House was immaculate, clean and very well maintained. The staff were friendly, welcoming and spoke excellent english but also encouraged my attempts at German too!

I cannot believe people have given the Bloberger Hof bad reviews, I can only assume they were comparing it with larger hotels rather than guest houses and therefore had unrealistic expectations! I would heartily recommend the Bloberger Hof to anyone looking to stay in the Salzburg area.

It is situated a 15 minute bus ride from the Centre of the Old town and costs just 1.80 euro I think with busses running every 20-30 minutes even on a Sunday till 11pm. And they were on time every time!
We got a taxi from outside the airport arrivals which cost 13 euros to the Bloberger, not bad at all.

We did not eat in the restaurant except for breakfast which was lovely, continental style and all fresh. There is no bar but you can get a drink in the restaurant and the room minibar prices are really cheap and reasonable compared to a hotel.

To sum up I would say the Bloberger is friendly, Cosy, quaint and good value.

Salzburg tip- dont buy your Mozart choccies in the town centre or at the airport! There is a supermarket on the bus route into town where they are around 2 euros a bag, at the airport and in gift shops they were about 8 euros for the same thing!
Also there is very little in departures at Salzburg after security and nowhere to get a meal or food other than crisps!

Happy travelling! x

After staying at the Bloberger Hof in October 2007 I found the place to be fantastic.

I read with some dismay the comment that was left recently about ''dont expect much"

I am a firm believer that you get what you pay for and you cant compare apples with oranges.

Yes the hotel is a 10 minute bus trip out of town and no it is not as great as staying right in the centre of town..but start to compare apples with apples and you might find it a little like this~
$120 a night as opposed to say $400 a night...go into the town and see what you get for a 120 dollars and you would run to this place like there is no tommorow.
Also take into account thatthere are two room types in this hotel..A basic pension room or a deluxe apartment..id say again compare the two and an extra $50.00 a night is worth it!!

We stayed in this hotel for 3 nights and cannot say a bad word about it.The staff were friendly, they picked us up from the train station at no cost, they did some laundry for us at no cost, they allowed us to use the internet whenever we wanted at no cost and they gave us all the help we wanted in relation to directions and tours etc and their English was FANTASTIC!!!

Perhaps again we should look at comparing ourselves with apples..I see some people speak rudely to hotel staff and treat them badly like they are subservient and then expect the person to treat them as kings?? Be realistic..People treat you how you treat them!

The Bloberger Hof was a wonderful hotel for me and my kids aged 8 and 10 and would stay there gain in a heatbeat. Bus 21 to and from town in 10 minutes and until 11 pm..not 24 hours but where in the world are there 24 hour buses!!!??

Keep up the good work Bloberger Hof!!!!

Perth, Western Australia

Average place but be prepared to do some walking!

Missed access to the city and the major sights. Salzburg is such a wonderful city, but it's hard to get around from the Bloberger Hof as busses don't go 24/7.

Wished the staff would have been more knowledgeable in English and the rooms more spacious and comfortable.
