JyapzArte Salzburg Review 🇦🇹
Modern comfort, excellent location, and a Salzburg travel hack
Overall, I would definitely consider staying at Arte Salzburg again. It offers a modern, comfortable stay with one major advantage: its location right next to Salzburg's main train station.

🛏️ Room Comfort & Design — 8/10
The hotel has a very modern aesthetic, and the king-size bed was comfortable, making it easy to get a good night's rest. Although the room is a little compact, it gets the job done without compromising the essentials for a comfortable stay.
One unique feature is the open-shower design. It gives the bathroom a more modern feel, but it's something to consider if you're travelling with a friend or someone you're not sharing that level of privacy with.
📍 Location & Accessibility — 10/10
For me, this is the hotel's biggest selling point.
Arte Salzburg is right next to the main train station, making it convenient for getting around Salzburg and travelling beyond the city.
Here's a useful travel hack: If you're planning a day trip to Hallstatt or other destinations with buses departing from the main station, staying nearby can make your morning much easier. For services that board at the station, getting on at the first stop may also give you a better chance of securing a seat before the bus gets crowded.
For travellers who want to maximise their time and minimise unnecessary transfers, this location is a major advantage.
🧖 Facilities — 8/10
The hotel provides a sauna and gym facilities, with access to a large gym next to the hotel.
I genuinely regret not bringing my sportswear because exploring a local gym while travelling would have been a great experience. If you enjoy maintaining your workout routine on holiday, this is definitely worth looking into before your stay.
🔌 In-Room Amenities — 5/10
The essentials are covered, but don't expect a particularly extensive range of in-room amenities.
Available features include:
- Hair dryer
- Cable TV with Austrian channels
- HDMI port for connecting your own device
- Easy-to-use temperature controls
However, there is no iron or ironing board, and laundry facilities are not provided according to my experience. If you're travelling for an extended period or packing outfits that need ironing, plan accordingly.
💰 Value for Money — 8/10
Considering the modern design, comfortable bed, and excellent accessibility, I found the overall offering worthwhile for the price I paid.
The compact room and limited amenities are worth factoring in, but if your priorities are comfort, convenience, and a good base for exploring Salzburg, Arte Salzburg is a strong option.
Final Verdict
I'd happily stay at Arte Salzburg again. It's particularly suitable for travellers who prioritise a modern hotel, a comfortable night's sleep, and easy access to trains and buses.
My biggest takeaway? Don't underestimate the value of staying next to the main train station when planning day trips from Salzburg. It can make your itinerary significantly more convenient.

Guest UserThis hotel feels more like a guesthouse, and I'm not sure why it's so expensive. I think it's significantly worse than comparable hotels in China like Hanting or Atour. I heard it's because of the Mozart Music Festival, which apparently doubled all hotel prices. However, the blonde lady at the front desk was very pretty and had excellent service. The surrounding area is quite quiet, but there's a Greek and an Italian restaurant directly across the street that are pretty good. There's also a large DM supermarket and a shopping mall opposite, where you can get tax refunds.

While the room felt a bit old, it was kept very clean. It was well-equipped with a table, sofa, and refrigerator, and all the amenities were provided, so I had everything I needed. The front desk staff were all incredibly friendly and made my stay very pleasant. The hotel is also conveniently located about a 7-minute walk from the station, with a supermarket, restaurants, and a bakery nearby, so there were no inconveniences at all.

Anonymous Userexcellent location, very convenient! rooms were very clean and well-equipped with the essentials, and service staff were prompt. one thing we appreciated quite a lot was also the free minibar (which they top up daily). though, room layout was a little strange with the toilet separate from the bathroom area, which made it difficult to clean up after/wash hands

We had a good stay at Holiday Inn Salzburg City. The hotel was clean, comfortable, and in a great location. It’s close to the city center, and many attractions can be reached on foot, which made exploring Salzburg very convenient.
The room was clean and had everything we needed. However, one small issue was that the electric kettle in our room wasn’t working. We tried to contact the front desk after 10:00 PM, but there was no one available to assist us at that time, so we couldn’t get it replaced.

strongtea929This hotel isn't old-fashioned, and it's about a ten-minute walk to the train station. The path is flat, so dragging luggage is no problem. The front desk staff are very welcoming and even provide hotel and transportation information in Chinese. They also offer free public transport tickets for the city (perhaps because it's a tourist city, the bus drivers are used to it and never check 😂), which is handy for getting to further places. It's also convenient to walk to the train station and take the 840 bus to Königssee, although you'll need to buy a ticket for that as it's a cross-border bus.

Jasmine☃I wouldn't recommend this hotel.
The first room we were given had several flies buzzing around as soon as we walked in. When I opened the bathroom door, there was even toilet paper left unflushed in the toilet. We asked the front desk to change our room, but they gave us an even smaller one. The new room was much cleaner.
This hotel is very far from the city center, and it's not cheap either. For a hotel costing over a hundred euros, and a 15-euro breakfast, there's only a small dining area. While there was plenty of cheese, other options were very limited. Plus, the chips and soda on the first floor were super expensive!
I rarely leave bad reviews, but this is truly the worst value-for-money hotel I've ever stayed in!

Guest UserAn excellent choice for travellers using Salzburg Hauptbahnhof, particularly if you have an early-morning train connection. Cocoon Salzburg is conveniently located just 5 minutes from the station, which made our departure stress-free without sacrificing easy access to the city during our stay.
The room was comfortable and well designed, although there are a couple of practical points worth noting. There are no coffee or tea-making facilities in the room, but these are available on the ground level. Likewise, there was no iron or ironing board in our room, though we were informed that ironing facilities are available on the ground level.
A particularly useful benefit is that Salzburg City Mobility tickets can be obtained at check-in, making it very convenient to use public transport without having to arrange this separately.
Overall, a very practical, comfortable and well-located hotel. For anyone arriving or departing Salzburg by train—especially on an early service—the location alone makes Cocoon Salzburg an easy 5-star recommendation.

I booked for three nights and when I checked in, the hotel staff initially couldn't find our reservation. After some confirmation, we were able to check in smoothly.
We were given a room on the second floor, but once inside, we found the mini-fridge was broken. So, I went downstairs and asked the front desk to switch our room. The new room was further inside. The fridge worked, but the air conditioning wasn't very cold. Luckily, it wasn't too hot at night, so it was fine.
I'd read reviews mentioning some guests had items stolen, so we didn't leave any valuables in the room and kept our suitcases locked.
However, when the towels were replaced daily, I'm not sure if it's because we didn't leave the floor mats on the ground or what, but they were always taken away and not replaced (it's also possible the hotel doesn't provide them). The plastic bottles I intended to return were also taken (but that's quite normal, so it's fine).
The area around the hotel does feel a bit desolate, possibly because it's behind a department store and next to a construction site. We could hear hammering from the construction site in the mornings. It's quite close to the train station and bus stops, but for the price we paid, I think it was significantly overpriced.
The hotel staff offered us free luggage storage (they mentioned guests normally have to use lockers). In the afternoons, there's iced water and small cookies available on the first floor.

The hotel is conveniently located, about an 8-minute walk from the station and 15 minutes from Mirabell Palace. The hotel environment is beautiful, and the front desk service was very nice. However, there's a critical issue: when I booked a comfortable double room, the pictures showed a bathroom with a wet/dry separation. In reality, the bathroom (as shown in image two) had no partition at all. After showering, the entire bathroom floor would be wet, making it very inconvenient to use the toilet at night.
