The Radisson Blue Hotel Altstadt is located right in the heart of Salzburg’s Unesco-listed old town centre, within a few steps of Mozart’s birth house. The hotel has two entrances, one on Rudolfskai by the River Salzach, and one on the (more atmospheric) Judengasse within the old town. Salzburg’s old town is one of the best preserved examples of this ecclesiastical town.  Fabulous Baroque architecture and The Sound of Music filming locations can be found on almost every corner – a city quite impossible not to fall in love with.

The hotel has 62 elegant, luxurious rooms and suites. All rooms come with original wooden beams, antique furniture, heavy rugs, white walls hung with framed prints and engravings of old Salzburg, and parquet flooring. Bathrooms have elegant marble sink tops and twin sink basins, and either a walk-in shower or a combination.

Service was excellent on our visit, with friendly, helpful and welcoming staff. Check-in was charming and efficient and my beautiful room faced the Salzach river on the quieter side of the hotel.

An excellent breakfast with a wide choice of food items including freshly prepared waffles and egg dishes is served at the hotel’s Symphonie restaurant on the first floor overlooking the Salzach river. 

Public parking areas are located a five-minute walk away. Location and the friendly staff are definitely the best attributes of this hotel and my stay there was excellent.
