HYPERION Hotel Salzburg
Sensational spot in the middle of Salzburg. It was a nice touch to have a glass of prosecco on arrival. The rooms were a good size, and the included minibar was also nice. Valet/Porter staff were also great. The only comment would be breakfast, which seemed busy for only one floor staff.
