We stumbled into the restauraunt portion of this hostel-hotel during a recent walk around Salzburg. It is a funky and cozy little place with an amazing view out over Salzburg. Meals ordered cost between 7 Euro and 13 Euro, were well presented, traditional Austrian food, really flavorfull and all around delicious. Each of the three of us ordered a different... More

This small hostel had an amazing view and a lot of charm. The breakfast was simple, fresh, and delicious. We really enjoyed an excellent view of Salzburg sitting in the corner breakfast nook. The rooms/bathroom facilities are small but definitely adequate for those looking to just sleep and clean up. I think it's a good value for Salzburg. The owner-operator... More

Stayed at this hostel for 3 nights recently, and it was awesome!!! Absolutely love the view from the hostel and it's definitely the most value-for-money hostel I've ever stayed in...and I've stayed in a good share of them! Let's start with the location. Ok, I think the location is both its strength and its weakness. It's located almost as an... More

We had a real bad experience with this hostel, especially with the owner. We booked a room and got a booking confirmation from the owner. We had planned to check-in at 10pm but we were one hour late and called to tell them. They said it was ok and did not tell us that we could not reach the hostel... More

Fully agree with the previous reviewers with regards to bathrooms/dormitory rooms. fortunately during my stay there, there were only 2 other people, so the 3 of us had a dorm room to ourselves, and i had the bathroom to myself as well. The outstanding panoromic view of Salzburg made up for EVERYTHING.... at the back, there is also a beautiful... More

I wanted to rate this overall as 3.5 as I think it is better than 'Average' but not quite 'very good'. Our biggest problem here was that they double-booked. My husband, sister and I were travelling together so we had booked the only double room in the place for my husband and I, and a bed in a dormitory for... More

This place is a gem! The views of the city are incredible and the location in the 800 year old walls enhance the experience of marveling at the history that surrounds you! The staff was friendly, the rooms were clean as were the showers and bathrooms. Substantial breakfast with good coffee. We sampled the "apple strudel" later in the day... More

The Stadtalm has a magnificent view over Salzburg, is beautifully situated on a hill in a reserve, but is very difficult to find. We googled, used locals, police, phone call to the owner to find the place, which we eventually did. As we were on a tight budget, parking a car at cost and using a lift at cost were... More

I made it to the Stadtalm somewhat by mistake. Part of the Salzburg card gets you to the Modern Art museum up on the hill with a Panorama view. And there I saw the sign for the youth hostel, and away I went. I can't say enough for this lucky coincidence as the Stadtalm was the very best youth Hostel... More
