Almost all is good. I should have one night stay before I spend my rest of the vacation in the hotel. It was quite safe and clean. There were lockers that you can lock your stuff. Even once I check out I kept my luggages there. It was 2 euros to lock the luggage but it is quite perfect to have this option.

Very easy and comfortable for check in and out system. Clean and bright room and tidy bedding, noisy from railway but no problem to fall a sleep. Nice kitchen for making cafe or tea and cozy living room for small meeting on the first floor. The best thing of this accommodation is definitely people, all staffs.

I booked a dorm with 6 beds and it so happened that there were no other people in that dorm. I guess I just got lucky. They also provided breakfast which was very good.

Fantastic hospitality and a wonderful location, just 100 meters from the town center. An excellent choice for families as well as solo travelers. After a two-day journey, I was too exhausted to drive any further and found this place at the last minute. The hosts graciously offered me a room with four beds, even though I was traveling alone. The room was exceptionally comfortable—especially the bed—and I slept an uninterrupted 12 hours, which speaks volumes about the quiet and relaxing environment. The breakfast was delightful, though I had to hit the road shortly after, leaving little time to explore the charming and picturesque town of St. Gilgen.

All hostels in Salzburg

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

View outstanding, but of course a hike to earn it! Once you get used to those stairs it goes more quickly but the first hike up with bags was grueling. Clean clean clean, very safe feeling place, youth hostel vibe (but super clean!)

The hostel was in a great location, on a quiet street halfway between the train station and the city centre. Staff were friendly and always around to answer any questions. There were lots of ladies showers, and they were kept very clean. Rooms were spacious and included a desk and a secure locker each (which locked with your room key). The bunk beds were really solidly built and comfortable (not the flimsy squeaky type you get in most cheap hostels!) Coffee, tea and juice available at reception throughout the day was a nice bonus.

The eco concept and design was cool. Loved the reclaimed wood and dangling light bulb and socket design. The decor was practical and beautiful. Beds were sturdy and comfortable. Great communal areas - had a good backpacker/hostel vibe. Easy to check-in, convenient luggage storage and easy to get from the airport and hauptbahnhof. Safe location and quiet. Great for a solo female traveller. About 10mins walk from the city centre.
