a&o Salzburg Hauptbahnhof

Had a pleasant stay. Room and bathrooms are tidy. Quick check-in and friendly staff. Luggage can be stored in small, medium and large deposit based personal lockers for maximum of 24hrs for a small fee UpTo 4 euros. Quite a lot of choices in the breakfast. Would definitely recommend.

Quite close to the central train station. We loved the stay in a family size room and enjoyed playing table soccer. The place looks quite spacious. You can also find locker facility here but I recommend you choose the luggage locker facility available at the train station which is cost effective.

I've stayed in many hostels all over the world. Small and intimate ones. But also chain hostels like this one.
I'm not a fan of this specific one. The reception desk and hallway are spacious. Yet, not inviting to spend some time there and relax. The guest kitchen is isolated and very small. And there isn't a dining room close by. The annoying part, it's a a maze. There's one elevator to go to to some parts of the floor. We wanted to avoid crowded elevators.  But it seemed impossible to find the right stairway to the reception desk. No wonder people took the elevator, even when they only had to go 1 floor up. It's utterly annoying there are no signs pointing you in the direction of the reception desk/ hallway. There's rubbish here and there. You would think the girl at the reception desk would pick it up. But she was busy using her smartphone. Our family room was big enough and clean. But it has small windows and a closet in front of one. Blocking daylight. Also, one of the main lights wasn't working. We left the windows open when we left. And our room had a comfortable temperature on a very hot day, when we returned. Breakfast was alright. Lots of things were empty when we arrived at 9. We had to wait a long time to get some rolls. I would not recommend staying here, even though I always enjoy staying at hostels.

Staff were very helpful. Location was great in the city. We stayed several nights and our bathroom was never cleaned. The kitchen was very small and very dirty. They also don’t provide much supplies for the kitchen. We could only find one plate, fork, and spoon.
