Hotel Sacher Salzburg

A really great location and exceptionally friendly team. But OMG, the room size - ridiculously small. This was what they called a deluxe room at an average rate of €1,810 per night. My wife and I moved stuff like luggage racks etc under the bed to give us room to move. We did speak to Simon, I believe the duty manager, who offered us a different but also a same class "deluxe" room which had to be 40% bigger. (Thank you Simon). Still a very small room but passable. This hotel is ok but rooms of that size do not belong in a luxury class hotel. Especially not at those prices. After Salzburg we were headed to Vienna but also a Sacher hotel - decided we were done with the Sacher group (see my review of the Sacher in Seefeld) so canceled Sacher Vienna and stayed at the Mandarin Oriental which was amazing. Will review separately.

One night stay; great location within walking distance of all the sights in the old town and next to the mirabelle gardens. Best Wiener Schnitzel ever and the famous Sacher Torte. The front door/welcome greeters went above and beyond in helping with a bicycle issue. Excellent friendly staff.

Sacher is a brand that guarantees great buildings in great conditions. I stayed in Vienna and now in Salzburg and both are top quality buildings and locations. We had a beautiful suite consisting of an oversized living room facing the river and an average sized bedroom. A new renovated marble bathroom with a fantastic shower cabin, made the use of the room very pleasant. Breakfast is served buffet style with many quality option. The grill restaurant with its terrace on the river is fantastic as it is its food and service. AC works very well. WIFI is poor and slow, not up to standard. Staff we encountered in housekeeping and restaurants were kind and well trained. Cannot say the same for Reception and Concierge.

Very little can beat this hotel; location, views, comfort and service all get top marks!!! This hotel is very well located with a wonderful view of the area. We had a suite on the top floor. The breakfast was well stocked and service was superb. The rooms, even the suite, was on the small side and we don't love bathrooms with a window into the bedroom but this room seemed to take that into consideration with a curtain that blocked the view in/out of the bathroom. I also don't love when the toilet is in a separate room in the bathroom but the door is glass. Huh? Whats the point of that? Otherwise we loved the hotel, service, location and comfort. Continuously a top deluxe hotel.

The service here is top notch. All the people are warm and friendly. Everyone was so accommodating. The hotel itself has a killer location directly by the Love Lock Bridge and you can walk directly across into the old town where the high end and couture shops and cafes are. The Mirabell Gardens are about a 5 minute walk. Breakfast is absolutely delicious. We were very happy with our stay here and would absolutely stay again!
