I have just spent the best part of the last two weeks at the Stadtkrug Hotel in Salzburg and have enjoyed every single minute of it-(in 3 different rooms). The staff are extremely friendly. The atmosphere in the hotel is so relaxed ....yet the service, the attention to detail and the food, be that breakfast, dinner or late evening (until 23:00) is second to none. I love the place! I will be back again, and again, and again! It's location is supreme...looking at the beautiful city of Salzburg, yet only minutes away, on foot. The rooms are comfortable, clean, airy and bright. The bathrooms are clean and exactly what you needed- with space and light and, supremely clean! There is a beautiful garden terrace overlooking the city which must be beautiful in the Summer. I can't wait to come back.

A nice hotel well situated in a pedestrian street, yet quiet. Friendly staff and great breakfast.
The only problems I encountered was the pillow, which was too soft. They should give you at least 2 to use. Don't rely on their wake-up calls, better get your own alarm. Other than that, everything else was good.

Room size in the Stadtkrug is adequate for the standard double, ours located on the top (4th) floor (hotel has elevator). I doubt Americans will be satisfied with their smaller room types, so I definitely would consider going with the deluxe or a suite. The bathroom had a nice long vanity counter and typical corner European shower w/ plenty of hot water. Although the TV had only 1 English channel (Bloomsburg--boo), the pillows were the typical European collapsing kind and bed the typical hard style, otherwise the room furnishings and linens were classy, in a fitting vintage Salzburg style. Breakfast was the best we had in Austria, with a big assortment of typical European cheeses, meats, breads, as well as option of bacon/sausage and type of egg from the hotel’s farm outside the city—yummy! All staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The hotel location was fantastic—the Stadtkrug is built into the Kapuzinerberg hill and its 4th floor opens out onto a terrace restaurant and cobble path to the kloster on the top (great views at sunset!). It is in the pedestrian district, a short stroll across the bridge to Old Town, without the hassle and expense of actually being in the Old Town. Only downside is difficulty getting to hotel by car: best plan is probably to take Makartplatz to Bergstrasse as get as far as possible down it, unloading there. Only other drawback was construction noise going on across the street which began at 7am, but then again all the church bells of Salzburg ringing at 6am had already woken us up!

We stayed in this hotel in September 2011. It is so close to everything and the staff could not have been any friendlier or helpful. We loved staying here. The rooms were comfortable, clean , and had great showers.
