We had a lovely stay at the Arcotel Castellani. The room looked to be recently decorated was clean, spacious and had a lovely view of the mountains. Air con, tea, coffee and water was provided along with general toiletries in the bathroom.
Check in and out was easy and they stored our luggage so we could explore after check out time without carrying bags around.
It is about a 20 minute walk into the old town (a straight walk) but a number 3 or 8 tram will also take you there in 15 minutes. I’ve heard of free passes but we weren’t provided with one but a 24 bus pass is approx £5 so not too bad anyway.
We were upgraded to a suite, so that was cool. Beautiful place. Walking distance to all kinds of fun things. Nice just walking along the river as well.
Great location to Old town Salzburg. Nice, cozy, and e-co friendly hotel.
It was pleasure to stay in this hotel.
I would definitely re-booking this hotel if I visiting Salzburg.
The property is excellent and the staff are friendly and helpful.
Parking for us was a challenge due to the weekend.
Walkable to main Salzburg attractions, but not for the elderly. Excellent for adult travellers.
We loved the hotel, lovely room. Our only feedback to stop it being a 5 was that the shower could of been better - quite a minor thing but when walking round in cold we both enjoy hot shower when back. Hotel spotlessly clean too, we really enjoyed our time in the hotel and Salzburg.
We loved our stay here. The property is lovely and the room is very comfortable. The staff are also phenomenal. We dropped a necklace down the drain in the sink and Victoria helped us fish it out - she was incredible kind, patient and innovative with her problem solving. The hotel is lucky to have her on staff there!
It was pretty good. They gave me a bus pass for my entire stay and helped me with navigating around the city. This was not given to me at check in, so you might have to ask. It’s not too far from the old town and the city is very walkable. If you like walking, this hotel is good. Breakfast was also okay. The room was spacious.
This is a really good hotel, nice and clean. But some of the staff in the reception and in the bar are untrained, uninterested and rude,- arriving on Sunday evening. Throughout the week it grew better, and Thursday-Friday-Saturday, our last days the service was good. So I hope the hotel really improves here, but it may be caused by vacation times.
Loved our room with the separate living space with a couch and chair. Beautiful view from the 4th floor. Very comfortable bed and pillows. Nice to have the shutters to close at night. Paid $18EU/person to have breakfast included which consisted of some hot food(eggs, sausage and bacon) as well as cold meats, cheeses, granola. Walk to downtown was approximately 25 minutes but bus service nearby. Would definitely recommend this hotel.

Room was average for the price. Paint on the ceiling was peeling and bubbling. No refrigerator. Staff was very nice.
The hotel itself is beautiful and very conveniently located. Parking was easy. Breakfast was plentiful, but not catered to those looking for halal options. However, the staff appeared a bit cold — not sure it was due to cultural or language differences. The room had only one twin blanket with a duvet cover. The AC in our room would not cool and the room became uncomfortable to sleep at night. I called the reception to ask for help, but nobody answered the phone. Eventually, I sent an email to the hotel which went unanswered. The next morning, I informed the receptionist about the issues, and she said that she was already aware of them from my email. I had to go back to the reception again in the afternoon to ask for a blanket. I wish the service was better. The water supply in the bathroom also acted strangely. It would randomly swing between hot and cold while taking a shower. Overall, it was a mixed experience.
Lovely rooms. Good location for my activities. BUT Wifi completely unacceptable - weak or non-existent. Hotel claims to let you decide when to have the room made up, but ignores your these choices - even when you book online - and come after day 3. Staff friendly but slow - even trivial transactions take 5-10 minutes. Next time I will try other hotels and use the impressive local transit (free from your hotel if you stay 3 days or more, but not offered by this hotel - you have to know to ask).

The hotel’s location is convenient, and the rooms themselves were clean and spacious. Unfortunately, the overall experience was negatively impacted by the reception staff, who clearly need retraining. This is a hospitality environment, yet there was no greeting, no welcome—just a cold, dismissive attitude that came across as “What do you want?”
One front desk employee even questioned whether I really needed both rooms I had reserved for my party of four, which felt inappropriate and unprofessional. Her demeanor toward us was openly hostile. I can only speculate as to whether this treatment was influenced by the fact that we are American, but regardless, it was unacceptable.
Additionally, one of the elevators was out of service, and the hotel generally felt somewhat neglected and in disrepair. Breakfast was acceptable for the price but lacked variety.
This is unfortunate, as the hotel clearly has potential. With proper management and a focus on customer service—especially at the front desk—the experience could be significantly improved.
